You wouldn't believe how long it took me to realize that. My mentor in the sport advised me to call a little and sit alot, and that is how I hunted for the first part of my career. Then I fell for all that run and gun crap. Heard alot of them gobble but bumped even more running around the woods like an idiot. I've gone back to the well so to speak. Find a good area where I know the turkeys are sit and throw out a few calls and see what happens constantly remembering it's turkeys I'm dealing with. Nothing I do can make them do anything. I'm on his timetable. May not hear as many but much more enjoyable and usually able to work any that do respond.
