Are U passive or aggressive turkey hunter?
 
I consider myself aggressive when I here a gobble and go to them, but I call very little and play hard to get.

I'm both depending on the situation.

I'm not a turkey stalker, so I rarely move once I have a bird talking. But, on days when the birds aren't talking I usually go until I find one willing to work.

I'm an aggresive bird hunter more than anyway else.

I would say I'm an aggressive turk hunter I move quick to get to a setup once I got a bird gobblin. But I really let the bird decide what he wants to hear, if he hammers I will hammer(I love the gobblin) but if he's shy then I tone way down for him. On hung up birds I try everything in my arsenal to get him to commit before moving on him.

I'm not a very good caller. I get my birds by being in a good spot. I have a good place to hunt, that is not pressured, and I am very familiar with. Lucky, huh?

Aggressive is how I would describe my style of hunting. I generally make several moves on a tom if I feel like he want be able to see me. I call pretty hard with different calls to find the one he most prefers and then try to fire'm up. If the situation warrants, I can tone it down,call sparingly and sit for hours. I like to get the bird in and then decide if I want to take him. If a tom is being lead around by hens I make an effort to bust the flock and separate the gobbler. If this fails,and it does most of the time, I move on Cutt'n & Run'n to locate another bird to see if he would like to play the game. I hunt from "Can to Cain't" one the days I hunt.

It depends on the situation. I tend to be passive when I hunt birds in areas that are tougher. Meaning if I have one gobbling I don't screw him up, I just keep adjusting and changing until hopefully I kill him. I get much more aggressive out in areas that have tons of unpressured birds.
