IMO expirience plays a huge factor over being able to consistantly carry out longbeards.

scouting is also critical...gotta hunt where theres birds.

calling is important, but with expirience comes learning to call, when to call, what kinda sounds to make, how much to call etc etc..

with expirience you also learn how to setup, learn how long to wait, when to run and gun, etc etc...

you can get lucky, and alot of guys rather be lucky than good any day, but when it gets down to being consistant, expirience is key IMO...turkey hunting is a game of learning...when you think youve seen it all and learned everything there is to learn, that ole tom pulls a trick youve never thought possible...
