Born to hunt, Forced To learn How to Make Numbers Bigger!

welcome to the turkey forum....well i think you may of learned about patience through your bow hunting....all i can say is be patient,get in the woods and learn all you can about them and read all the threads here..if you have any questions, i know someone here can answer it...and remember that turkey's can see way better than deer, they say they can see the whites of your eyes from 60 yards, or something like that.....i know they can from about 15 yards, lol.....it's a horrible feeling.....good luck on your adventure into the world of turkey hunting, you'll never be the same

Huntnma gave you good advice. In addition to their eyesight, turkeys have great hearing and what I like to call 'sense of place." If a gobbler hears your call once, he knows almost exactly where you are, so don't be surprised if he comes your way silently, and from a different direction than you expect.

Although I could probably give dozens of hints, one that I feel is most important for a beginner stands out. Learn to do a few calls reasonably well on whatever type of call you choose, but "DON'T FALL IN LOVE WITH YOUR CALLING." Often less is more, and cadence is more important that sound.

I like to attend calling contests to listen to the great calling, but the prancing about on stage, throwing calls this way and that, has no more relationship to actual hunting than professional wrestling has to your high school's version of wrestling. The best turkey hunters I know would, at best, be considered mediocre callers.

Have fun!

Lucky Dog! i only wish i had got into turkey hunting when i was 15. Just wait
till your lookin down the barrell at a strutting tom. Then you'll be hooked!
Good luck and im already excited for you

I agree with Jim its nice to see the younger generation interested in such a great sport!Hook up with a seasoned turkey hunter if you can,and learn from em.The turkey woods is the best place to learn and the turkeys themselves are the best teachers!!
