what do you guys think about roost hunting? a guy and I had differnt views on this today, so what are your views on this.

I neverhave or will I ever shoot a turkey from the roost. Thats me though. Some may disagree but thats ok thats them and not me.

Are we talking about shooting them from their roost or hunting near their roost? Hunting near their roost:Absolutely. Shooting them from their roost: Absolutely not.

i wont do it either, its illegal here in Pa. but i was talking about was setting up next to the roost tree and shooting them before they fly up

where talking about hunting next to the roost and shooting them before they fly up

In MO it isn't an option. We can't hunt after 1 PM. Only being able to hunt part of the day is good for the turkeys. Gives them a chance to regroup for the evening and makes sure the hens all get breed.

No way! Even if it was legal I still wouldn't do that way.

i see no differents between hunting on the roost and shooting them out of the tree, but to each his own

Turkey on the ground?= dead turkey. There is no way to know which exact tree to sit under to get a shot at that tom.

I wouldn't shoot a turkey on roost, but wouldn't look down on someone huggin up to a roosting area and tryin to catch one before it heads back up.

How would this be different than setting up on a known strutting zone?
