Are you looking at hunting them this fall or scouting for next spring? A few places I hunt the birds flock up and roost a certain farm most of the winter but in the spring they break up and spread out leaving very few on that original property in the spring. If you are looking to just get them to the area you hunt one thing I have done that works is I have set up corn feeders and attracted the birds onto the farm I hunt. Once they get used to the free dinner and hang around I remove the feeder and if the habitat is otherwise turkey friendly they continue to frequent it. I have one spot where I never saw one bird but had several flocks in properties across the road. After attracting them with the feeder I now after a few years have a resident flock that stays there year round.
