Turkey Hunting Whether it's spring or fall doesn't matter to this bunch. Great tips on calling, bustin flocks, using blinds and more.

Default When you know your relaxed.....

I'll fess up... on mornings when there are no birds, I'm completely happy.
I've had many morning sitting under a tree in the turkey woods with my gun across my lap sound asleep... Its an advanced tactic I guess.
Seriously though, I believe if you love the outdoors, you feel you belong there. I love the sunlit mornings with the birds chirping and the swamp frogs... and I like to hear a gobbler answer a good snore.
Anyone else just pass the hell out hunting?

I've slept many a times while turkey hunting. Usually after an unsuccessful morning, around 11, I'll just find a nice, shady tree, sit down, and enjoy the outdoors. I love taking naps in the woods.

I was awakened one morning by a guy in a treestand... laughing at me while I slept (snoring) in a dried up creek bed.

Last week late afternoon on Mich Opener as I sat sound asleep - my head resting on my hands - I came dead awake at a Gobble in the distance! Am not lyin'! Tried to get sleep outa my eyes - and here comes two gobbling Jakes - to which I teased right into my set-up - filmed them a bit and went back to my nap!

Ain't it amazing what you can hear when we're sound asleep? I've done the same thing. be asleep and hear a turkey off in the distance. He might as well be sitting on my shoulder.
