Anyone turkey hunt?
 

Besides me?

I've been turkey hunting once, many many years ago.

Yes! Me & my 2 boys! & I'M READY!

Man I am ready too.

I have couple deer stands that they've roosting by. Late in the evenings I hear em go to roost. Gets me all fired up!

i got the spot this year !!!! getting my calling down pat at work too.... pisses the girls off !!!

This weekend will be my last for deer so I will go into gobble mode on the way home Sunday. Last weekend I saw 14 while sitting in the stand. Jeff you need to check out msdwf.com/forums and check out the turkey section.

I stay in gobble mode! Just ask Duckaholic......We were on the phone an hour ago lining up our trips for this year. I hunt both Easterns and Rios and we have a new spot this year just outside Kerrville, Tx. Only rule is, you can not hunt the birds by the camp....(wink,wink)!

Shawn B. Lease hold turkeys and its right down from mine in ragley, but yet mine donm't hold them...***?


If i had a spot, i'd love that crap.


Jordan you try way tooo much stuff ( goose calling, duck calling, now turkey calling)

Talk to Mom & Pops & you come one w/e with Me & the boys to Camp in Miss.

I gave it up for trout fishin'.......

You can not talk TURKEY until Deer season is closed. TOOOOOOO much distraction to the Deer hunting.

I would bet your lease has some Turkey. You just got to know how to hunt them.

If you need any help.............Just let me know. You bring the gun I will call them in.

I've talked with ya before about it, but in my 10 years of hunting out there, and my dad's 30 years of huntin out there neither of us have seen /heard turkeys

cus ya too dang loud.boys cell phone never stops blowin up. :smokin:

Gerald is that a basin bird?

Yep......killed a few there.

We are going to have to talk one day to see exactly where your lease is located. Shawn has birds gobbling all around where he hunts so there must be turkey on your lease.

I been on a few hunts.... Herd em cuttin up around me.... Seen a few... Only taken one shot and missed:(
id love to go and actually down one!!!

Would not mind making a trip to the basin this spring...If you have a spot available.

I absolutley love turkey hunting heading to Nebraska this year to get my merriams then all that is left is the osceola in Florida and I will have my grand slam.

I need a merriams and an osceola as well. Your trip to Nebraska, guided or public land?

Semi-Guided it is at this place...

Good luck in Florida. Been down there twice and finally said, ":thefinger: these
long-legged bastids." :cry:

I hear they are pretty tough as well as pretty pricey.

The terrain down there is so much different than any you've ever seen but them birds have adapted.....the hunters have not.

Other than our Easterns, I've only killed a few Rios. Them things are like shootin' fish in a barrel.

gerald we are going to have to try and get one this year

Are they just that wary or what is the deal?? Trying to gather as much info before I drop 4g's to not kill anything. Is it even worth it?:help:

I haven't been out west but, compared to Easterns, they are much tougher to hunt. A Rio doesn't even figure into the equation.

As much as I loved it, I was just not eat up with patience. If you love a challenge, probably the biggest you'll encounter as a turkey hunter, then, yes...it's worth it.

i can call a turkey good.... just need to try something new...

jordon you don't hunt polk it full of them?

i do every now and then adam... Ft Polk butts up against my property.... their everywhere here..

Yep.......those birds "EDUCATED" us last year.....but we learned a lot to.

I got some ideas and we need to get ready a few weeks before the season.

Will probably give a world thanks for the info. I guess I have a task ahead of me.

let me know when you're ready, i need to go next weekend and pull my tripod down. weird I didn't see any around this deer season, didn't hunt but maybe 6 times also though.

So would you mind divulging what the price for the semi guided hunts are? You can PM if you like.

Maybe we've found a subject that W is just not interested in. :eek: I notice there's no comments from him. :eek: Probably best, tho, since the only thing synonymous with W and turkey hunting is CACKLING. :p

lmao

The three day semi guided hunt is 700 and you can kill 2 birds that includes all food lodging and stuff to that nature. The flight is give or take 400 and the rental car for four guys will be about 100 each. Total I expect to spend around 1,300-1,400 total.

Cool cool. Will you come back and post up your experience with them?

Absolutely hope its a good one.

That doesn't sound like a bad deal right there. Pepper, could you define "semi guided"?

Thats were the guide says they're somewhere that way. So you go over there.

I looked on that site. It says a guide goes out with you in the afternoon and helps you roost a bird. Then you go back in the morning and hunt it up bayousef!

That would work for me. If I had a choice between a mouth call and a gun....I'd take the call any day. Just don't think I could sit there while someone else called my gobbler in. :shaking:

This.

Salty.....I have hunted with a buddy calling and solo and taken Toms both ways. Both are good. With 2 or more people you can combine hunting knowledge. Sometimes one person will hear a Tom, while the other did not. Also locating direction of the Tom is usually better with 2 hunters.

That's totally true, Mr. Gerald. You can also sound like more than one hen. I was referring to a guide calling in the bird as opposed to doing it, myself.

turkey hunting is prob my favorite thing to do! i go on lottery hunt in sherbune and i have a few places in st. francisville.

i saw a bunch of turkeys in sherburne off of bayou manuel road near the bridge crossing big alabama

i aint goin hunt that spot, the briars tore me a new one.....
