RE: i need some tips
1st - I would suggest using the Search button at the top of the page and research fall turkey hunting.
2nd - Because most of my time in the fall, I'm in a treestand with bow on hand, I haven't done much turkey hunting. But in the fall, the turkeys group up (tom with jakes) (hens with their poults). So the best method I've heard is to locate and pattern a group of birds, then purposely break them up. See where the birds are heading to, get in front of them, and start calling. In the fall, birds call to each other to relocate each other and group back up. Like I said, I don't have a fraction of as much experience fall bird hunting as I do spring bird hunting, so maybe someone else can chime in and help more, but this is what I have used and heard. Good luck.
