My first turkey hunting experiences were typical with what you think turkey hunting is supposed to be like. The next year, I started hunting a different farm. Hunting this farm over the past four years has been anything but typical. Out of all the time I have been in the woods there (I hunt deer there as well), I have only heard birds on 5 occasions. And that is not just gobblers!!! I'm talking about hens too. It is the strangest thing. From reading other posts, I found that sometimes that happens to everyone, but I don't think it happens to the degree that it happens to us at this farm. At most four people hunt the 275 acres, two hunt the whole season (brother and I). I know the farm is covered in birds. Most I have seen at one time is around 30, and the past three days I've been scouting, I've seen 8 total with little effort. Dealing with this has made locating birds very hard. The best solution I have is to sit it out somewhere I know they travel and wait 'em out. The farm is located no more than a half mile off the interstate. The noise is as you would expect being that close to it. I have talked to other hunters in the county and they have not had the problems we are having, so its not a geographical thing. What gives? Everyone I have been talking to about this is interested to find out what the deal is. PLEASE, someone, shed some light on this subject for me. Thanks.
