Man I hunt 99% public in Mississippi & I hunt a place that has turkeys but a LOT of pressure. Man I seem to get on them, but rarely pack one out., I believe elite calling plays a role. I’ve been a bow hunter my whole life, starting hunting squirrels at age 6. I think I’m a pretty decent woodsman. It seems the gobblers always hang up & then just go cold. Or I make a move & end up boogering them. Super frustrating. Yall make it look so easy. Do you ever get on them & they go cold & you walk out empty handed or you make a move & end up boogering them??

[@jeffpilgrim128]

Awesome hunt! Old sly bird coming in there.

[@shanewiles629]

Man those hunts like that are the best. Those birds that come in silent like that and then all you hear is drumming get me all shook up. Because if you can hear him drumming more than likely he’s close and could pick you out before you figure out where he’s at. Awesome hunt as always and keep them coming sir!!

[@donmasoner7233]

As usual Dave awesome morning out!!! That ole boy was sure sneaky!!!! Thanks for all you bring us!!! Cant wait till Tn opener!!!!

[@BigCountry67]

Dang Dave ! That’s a hardwoods hunt in classic fashion. Those kind are hard to top. Congrats and I hope there’s still plenty more to come. Those were some beautiful woods. Well played !

[@claylutz3587]

Man if I learn anything it’s how you strategically place yourself and know exactly what do to!!! It’s an amazing puzzle you put together in about thirty minutes. In order to fool another one!!! Great video will definitely use this tactic in my near future!!! His bless you Mr. Owen’s!!!!

[@bradnieubuurt3048]

Beautiful bird. That sun in his fan just makes it even better. Awesome hunt

[@strydershadow391]

Great hunt once again. Really enjoyed the strategy you used in the video to bag that guy. Twelve days and I'll get up and start my 2024 season. I'm already trembling with excitement.

[@wearyharvest]

Gotta love sealing the deal on a sneaky rascal. Congrats bud!

Can’t get enough a’ them Easterns! Got another month til NY opener. Keep the videos comin! 🤙🏻👍🏻

[@Corey_CB_Stanley]

Haven't had the privilege to hunt the other sub species of turkey, but I just think it's hard to beat an Eastern in general, imo! Great video and explanation Dave!

[@perrymerkes7693]

Great share Dave. In Wisconsin the western part of the state is called the " driftless area " . Glacier never went through here. That's why it's hilly and more mini- mountainess. Anyways😂 ,,,,, our valleys are called " coulees " Just some fun geological facts for your viewers. Thanks for the great content. A few weeks to our seasons start.

[@noahbrown6830]

What a badass video man. Love it 🤘

Awesome bird, Dave!

Them western birds look like fun, but damnit man it’s hard to beat an eastern gobble in the timber. All the hate and bass comes out.

Brother. As a fellow and former cigar smoker. I implore you to stop. I smoked cigars for 12 years after I quit cigarettes. It started out as once in a while to 3 cigars a day. Now at only 55. I have COPD, I’m missing the left lower lobe of my lung. In July I haft to have open heart surgery. Smoking didn’t cause my bad heart. But it shortened my hearts life expectancy a great deal. If I don’t have surgery. I’m dead within 5 years or less. I’ve hunted since I was 10. Today I can’t go as far, carry as much. And I stop and rest frequently. I can’t drag a deer. At all anymore. Thank God for sons. I’m not preaching. I stand as an example for every smoking hunter. I love hunting more than smoking. I now regret every cigarette and every cigar. I know it’s not easy quitting. But I also know dying is also easy. From one hunter to another. Don’t make my mistakes. Good luck. I get to turkey hunt before my heart surgery:).

[@aaronkelley443]

Is that odd barring on the middle fan feathers a sign of age in your experience?

[@chrismartin5166]

Where’s the green sticker Dave?

Best fly down cackle I’ve heard from a “non turkey” but since u are over half turkey, well…

Yes

Taking turkey with a shotgun? Why? Zero challenge. Been there. Too easy so simple.

[@jaseast]

​@@timyowell3105probably went one time on unpressured land. Called in the whole flock on accident, picked one out and now it's just too easy, why go back. After spending weeks on public land, if someone can make that statement, then they are the best

Someone got lucky on the first hunt in their uncles cow pasture.
