First time poster here. Hello all.

Glad I found this website. Been exploring a bit. Ton's of info, and friendly, knowledgeable members. We are lucky to have such a place to learn and share.

I hunt mostly in central upstate NY. I am far from proficient, but I do have a few birds to my credit. I've turkey hunted sporadically over the past 8 years, but this spring I am looking to dedicate more time to the feathers, and less to the fins.

Ok, now a question...

In the area's in which I hunt, for the most part after 9:00am the turkeys sure quiet down. In the past, if my tag wasn't full by 9:00am, I would switch over to a "trolling" technique, of covering A LOT of ground, calling blind, hoping for a taker. I have had limited success doing so. I don’t know if it is my calling techniques, maybe I am moving too fast thru the woods, not hitting the right areas, I just don't know!

Wondering what techniques you all use, after the early morning is over, as late morning approaches, and the birds aint talkin? How should my calling change?

Thanks!
