sky_guy_61 - I only had a couple hours last weekend to do some scouting, so drove through my hunting areas (public land), and did some calling from the car to see if I could locate any birds. No responses.
I do want to say that i might sound rude or a bit cocky but if you sky_guy have a few hours to kill why don't you get out of your car and walk into the woods instead of driving around public land abuseing it by getting turkeys call smart and ruin it for other hunters who use this land as well..
You should know better then to start useing a call before you hunt when the season opens and by calling before the season it gets the birds smart to calls and harder for others to hunt or bring in the birds..
I have heard so many seasoned hunters tell me if your going to hunt on public land don't be a car hunter and get out and walk deep in the woods and find these birds and watch and follow where then hens go and thats where you will find the toms going back to the hens and with you calling and driving around areas that will scare off turkeys and make them call smart makes me have less respect for you and can ruin a great hunt for other hunters who don't do any calling and use their legs instead of being lazy when you have a ( few hours ) to kill.. [:@] walking never hurt anyone and it saves on fuel
