Hunting the big bird in South Texas
I've hunted turkey in eastern Kansas and Michigan, but in a couple months I'll be in south Texas on an "unguided" hunt. (a Turkey Slam is on my Bucket List) I've paid a trespass/lease fee to hunt an enormous private ranch, the ranch help can/will advise me of where birds have been seen, are roosting, etc, but I'll be on my own for the hunt.
I would like to pose some general questions in hopes you can help me be more successful.
What differences will I find between chasing turkey in the midwest vs south Texas?
Are there any special equipment or preparations I need to make for this hunt?
Any special/different tactics advised because of the topography or cover?
Any other tips you can offer would be appreciated.
