Maxco Posted June 17, 2014 Report Share Posted June 17, 2014 Nice birds, congrats! This year was my first time turkey hunting and sure learned alot, got hens right in close, but couldn't get a tom to get closer than about 100 yards. Guess I will be waiting until the Fall....

gunner-2 Posted June 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2014 Hi DaveC ya the whole gun is camo when turkey hunting you need to become part of the woods no bright colors no shiny guns turkeys can see color and see three times better than us so you wan't to be completely camo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxco Posted June 18, 2014 Report Share Posted June 18, 2014 It took some time but i finely mad it happen the birds were not very cooperative this year and didn't see a lot of birds but it was a bad year a month late most my birds would gobble on the roost hit the ground then shut up Thats what I was finding too, I finally figured out where they were roosting, and set up reasonably close, i would hear them gobble about 15 min before legal shooting time until at most 20 min after, then silence...I would eventually see the tom come out with a couple hens, but couldn't get them to come close enough to take a shot.
