Hey all, i'm going to be attempting turkey hunting for the first time this year. my question is what do you look for when scouting for a good spot to set the blind up? I'm very green at this so any help is appreciated! thanks!
Scout green fields early morning and late afternoon and learn where they're coming out, feeding and most importantly, where they're roosting and set up accordingly. Since turkeys see in 2D, due to eyes on each side of their head instead of in front like ours, you can set up your blind and take it home the same day and turkeys will not be able to tell the difference. Just be sure to have the sun at your back and only 1 window open on the blind to allow in the least amount of light possible. Set your decoy between 7 and 15 yards and kind of to the side where you think they will be coming from rather than directly in front of the blind so you're not directly in their line of sight while they're working the decoy. Good luck
Look for tracks, dust, poop, and a tree that you might thing they're roosting in. Watchign them through bincoulars helps alot to.
