I hunt an area that has very high grass this year. Will turkey come through the tall grass??? There is some bare ground but flooding last year has made for a lot of grass that wasn't grazed down last summer. Can someone give me advise on this??

Almost all animals, will use the least path of resistance; until disturbed !

............after that, it become you against him.

I would be far more concerned about: where their roost tree is, what time is fly down, where they move to from there, where do they water, where do they feed, where is their strutting area, where do they dust themselves, to call or not to call....................

Our season always start during the first week of May and runs until the first week of June as a rule. The area I have been hunting is full of tall grass before my season ends. I try to locate where the turkeys are hanging around at. Then I try to find a spot in the woods near the area. I would setup where I can see the edge of the field but still back around 30 yards or so. When locating the turkeys I have found the ones with the longest tails (from a distance) appear to be the toms. You will still need to get them in close enough to be able to see the beards how ever when hunting them.. I hope this helps you some..

Great info and I have hunted turkey many years and have taken many toms. This is a very differant year with all the heavy tall grass in the area I hunt. I have never hunted with so much ground cover like this. I know where the turkeys go to the fields and they are along the river bottoms where I hunt all the time. They are not roosting in the acreage I'm hunting but are close. I just wondering if I should set up down in the bottoms or up on top where I can see the fields. I like to set up down on the bottoms mostly because of wind. I have had good kills down below but the grass is 3 to 4 feet high.

While I have not hunted that many years last year I got a decent tom and then a jake during our last week of the season.. My hunting has been around all this tall grass, at least most of it anyways. I trave a dirt road that brings me out on a field that runs for 63 straight miles. My end of the field has to many other hunters and when calling last year a couple of other hunters saw the toms I was calling and tried to call them right straight across from. I passed the toms as safety is a must for me. I then moved out where few hunters were. enough said on that one..

Now what I have read today in a mag was that when setting up near a hill to set up roughly 3/4s of they way up the hill.. This is so that you are blended into the hill for turkeys that may come up the hill. Also so that any turkeys that are coming across the hill (or down the hill) will be high lighted from the field. Thus given you a view of them as they are coming down the hill.
