Great to hear that! Don't worry about the haters . Learning by yourself just adds character to your style of turkey hunting and that is the key to killing alot of public land birds !

I have made this same exact comment to myself more times than I can count. I find it amazing that someone who doesn't even know I exist, has single handily taught me everything I know about turkey hunting. I hope to be able to personally thank him one day. He has done more for me than he will ever know.

Dave, when you say you only take one turkey per property, is that only Wisconsin where turkeys are plentiful? Or do you try only to kill more per property in low population states like Mississippi in 2021? Love your show -Tom Lofton

It's just a self imposed rule I have for most areas. I'm just making sure it doesn't seem like I'm going out to the same piece of property daily and shooting into the same flock. I've failed at that in the past and making sure it doesn't happen again. When you have the luxury of hunting most days and the birds are in the right "mood" the portrayal can be a bit skewed. It isn't a hard 'n' fast rule for every property and I'm not even saying it's for everyone.

The intensity of that hunt is what we do it for! The chess match, the back and forth, the beating him to the spot, the walking in the leaves, the drumming, the heavy breathing! It had it ALL! Well done my friend, well done!

I thought I was sitting beside a dead turkey? So what is the problem with how I move?
@Tryingyourbestatwhateveryoudo Жыл бұрын
I don't know but if I moved as much as you do turkeys would leave the country I'm just saying you try to get to close to the turkey but try to let the turkey tell you what they want like if it is gobbling at your call and acting very interesting just sit tight and call light and not às often

@@Tryingyourbestatwhateveryoudo Hunt ended with a dead turkey. End of story. I like my ass to pucker before I set up on whenever possible. If a man didn’t try to get within spitting distance on some you wouldn’t set beside very many. And ol Dave sets beside plenty.

@@Tryingyourbestatwhateveryoudo again. I'm sitting beside the targeted gobbler. . . so how exactly did I do it wrong? I put my back to a tree in a spot where a gobbler wanted to be, used the 6" between my ears and a yelper to put him there. I'd be happy with that result every day.
@Tryingyourbestatwhateveryoudo Жыл бұрын
I have been hunting turkey for about 30 Year and deer about the same But the most important thing to remember is to watch everything that the animals are doing right before you see a deer or a turkey because other animals CAN and WILL let you know if something is coming a lot of the time they will alert the deer or turkey. The most valuable information that I learned in the past 30 plus years of hunting is to #1 take A LOT OF NOTES #2 IS TO STUDY THE PREY YOUR hunting, try to find out why, what and when they're doing what they're doing. For Instance on a full moon night you want to hunt as close to the bucks bedding area without making a lot of noise getting into that spot because the deer will be feeding in Fields and open woods. When setting up on a gobbler don't think you have to get 50 yards from that bird you can easily call that turkey in just as well at 150 yards rather than 50 to 75 yards it all depends on making sure that bird don't see you because if it does then your hunt is probably over for that day. Just a few tips that I hope you can use to make you more successful

Great hunt. I have been humbled by turkeys more in late May than any other time of the year. Some people say you should call more aggressively, others say you should tone it down later in the season. I still haven’t quite found the recipe for late season hunting.

Great hunt Dave ! I think this hunt was a great example how your ability to define a spot where ,you instinctively know, you can take a gobbler is gained through experience. When you finally got to the top and hit that flat spot the hair on my neck stood up ! Being an older guy, I would have had to stop right there !Since you have youth , on your side, you can cover ground and chase them I can't. Over the years I've found out that there are spots ,in the woods, where a turkey will come to a call and there are places where a turkey will not come to a call, no matter how sweet the sound, and once you take one in a certain spot you can go back to that spot , if the turkeys are in there, and your chances of calling another one in are very high ! Those spots are like money in the bank ! Also, I need to buy a pair of gaiters ! What brand do you wear ? Thanks again and keep em coming AND BE CAREFUL !
