As long as you got boots and a facemask you should be good.

Agreed get the face and feet covered, The face is a 100% must do. I am assuming this is your first attempt at turkeys? Good luck and be patient if it is, it took me till my third season to take a bird. It is a blast though!! I see you ar in OH, I'm in Indiana, I would suggest one other item, think about some colder weather gear, we know how the weather changes here and it i seasier to pull off clothing than to wish you had more.

Shoes are optional. I shot a turkey last year in shorts and crocs with the bow. Though I will say with resounding gusto that I'll never do something so retarded again. I looked like I got in a fight with a string weed eater and came out second best.

Just as long as you cover your skin and hold still you'll be fine. Earth tones are a requirement, though if there is any hunting I think camo is almost mandatory its turkey hunting. You can get away with flat earth tones duck hunting, and you can wear almost anything you want deer hunting as long as you mind the wind.... but turkey hunting.... man you gotta watch yourself!

Turkeys dont care how Macho you look, Save that for walking in to register it, Or showing it off. Start now by practicing the correct walk, Heel-Toe.
Make sure you get the booty thing down to, Chicks dig it.

Camo is important, But I have shot turkeys in white tennies and blue jeans. All in how good you can cover yourself. But camoflauge makes it better lol

I think that I have enough respect for a WILD turkeys eye sight, that I will never take a chance not being camoed from head to toe

In other words... When turkeys are hard to come by you don't take chance

one thing I would suggest if possible would be a turkey vest,it makes getting that bird out of the woods alot easier and its good for carring extra shells and calls.Otherwise I agree with the other comments.
