I have been set up on roosts before light only to have hunters come in calling not far from me so I just owl call and they go away.
I hunted fort Carson for too long, had a guy come in after me and shoot a hen off the roost I was set up on, another time I was set up before light had a gobbler talking with my decoys set up and a hunter came to the callingafter light and walked right through my decoys, so no gobbler for me, another time a guy shot my jake decoy. I stopped hunting it when I was about to shoot a long beard and right behind him came to hunters that heard the tom gobbling and me calling to him.
You want a Colorado turkey, lots of em on Carson but you risk your life!
Thank god I take my time, and pay attention.
To many leave their ethics at the hunter safety class.

My concern with getting out of the truck and
listening is---so you hear someone calling
on one side of the road, doesn't mean someone
else didn't bail out of that truck and is currently
sitting quietly on the other side of of the road.
That's why I just move on.
