If possible...I like to enter the (public hunting land) turkey woods to one of my stands, (which is about one mile from the hardtop road) about 1 or 2am. I'm certain that I'll probably be the first one in the woods. And if I make any noise going into the woods, I'm hoping that if I do rouse any turkeys from their sleep, they'll just go back to sleep again and forget the "noise" ever happened --- While I be catching some ZZZ's in my turkey stand.

Of course...one method is to roost a tom the evening before and stay overnight near the same spot...so I'll be ready at first light.

I also don't want to shoot at a tom that has another close range turkey directly behind him.
