Get Ultra-Close to Roosted Gobblers for Late-Season Turkey Hunts

Time is running out on turkey season, so now is not the time to be cautious. Last week I hunted with Josh Dahlke, the vice president for HuntStand Media (and a turkey maniac), on a property in western Wisconsin. In two days of hunting we were able to kill a nice gobbler with aggressive tactics.
The property we were on had already been hunted by three groups of guys before us. Most of these hunters preferred to set decoys out in a field and then wait in a blind from morning until afternoon, day after day. Some of those hunters punched their tags, others didn’t. But neither Dahlke nor I have that kind of patience when it comes to turkey hunting.
Our plan was to locate a gobbler on the roost and then get as close as possible (at least inside 100 yards) and then call him to the gun after he pitched down. The key to all of this is getting close enough to either bump off the tom’s hens (which are usually roosting nearby) or to get between the tom and his hens. To do that, we'd have to carefully scout the birds.

Lots of fun listening them touch off while they are roosted. Until they fly down the opposite direction and have to come back a few hundred yards lol. Nice video guys
