Default RE: How to roost turkeys????

My method has always been to hunt while roosting. I try to get out and sit near food and/or water. Turkeys love to fill up right before bed. I like to get out really early, like 4:00 or so. Then I just sit as quiet as possible. I do some clucks and purrs along with some soft to midrange yelps once in a while. I dont get loud or aggressive unless the hens start chirpin back. Almost every evening I get Toms to 70 yards. Then comes the hard part. That last 20 or so yards!!! If they dont get close enough, watch where they go and listen where they fly up to.
