Thank you. Outstanding tips from both of you. I have made a phone call and will be picking up a map next week of the WMA. Course, can' t scout for awhile as the woods are full of deer hunters. Good gun safety tips as well. While I have hunted small game as a youngster and teenager (often without a plan or forethought), I have much to learn about the wild turkey. But, as far as gun safety I am alright in that department. I have shot and trained with various weapons for near twenty years and am very well aware of the dangers of a poorly planned shot.

Thats exactly what I want to avoid on WMA land, a calling competition. In fact, I am planning to scout EXCLUDING the areas that I feel will be " overrun." I want to find the birds third choices for refuge. ha ha ha. Then, maybe I can do some hunting. I know what can happen in the woods and in my book SAFEty is more important than anything else. Judging by some of the folks I see wearing camo, it only reinforces that awareness. ha ha ha. Thanks for the tips. Hey, keep em coming. I' m burning these things off and making me a little booklet by subject matter. ha ha Really. Thanks again.
