Well let me tell ya you have a long way to go. I am no eddie salter or matt morret, but i can kill with the best of them. What you need to work on is your calling and woodsmenship. Not all turkeys are alike, all scenarios are not alike, it knowing what to do in different situations. I have heard people say toms will not get hung up on a creek if your calling and wont come, when i have seen them fly over a creek to get to me. I have heard people say toms will only come up hill to your calling and will not come down hill, i have had them do both. Get your shotgun camoflouged, get organized with your turkey vest and your gun patterned really good along with the distance. When it becomes spring i will help you from there. After deer season is over is when i start getting ready for turkey camp.
