man i cant get on a bird to save my life all the time and money and crap for show and i'm sick of it.not a damn gobble one today not nothing lost my face mask strikers and a slate call man i am whooped.i'm taking any advice.
The harder you try the worse off you are going to be when it comes to turkey hunting. Your best bet is to find a nice field where turkeys strut and just set-up on the edge of it... no decoys and no calls, let them do their own thing.
BBD, Kinda what BM said, Its the places that the birds want to be that is the most important in the Turkey hunting world. set up in those places to up your odds. I have killed plenty of non Gobbling birds, and have had some sneak in on me that I didnt even know were around. Patience is a big factor also. Hang in there pal
HELL thats just it i cant find thier roost or feeding areas or nothing i mean they arent feeding in the same spots that they was b4 the season came in they arent moving alot wont come to call or decoy and i'm going f-ing crazy! damn coyotes and stray dogs,bobcats is chasing them.the spot i hunt is a big mountain you couldnt walk in 2 days i dont have a clue where to start? its like a damn guessing game .damn idiots riding 4 wheelers and dope heads and road hunters i'm at my breaking point....
new bow stage 2 first things first dont give up , just re group and do something different , a person of habit dose the same thing over and over , do something new , the way u call ,the way u sit , bring a book to read , keeps your mind off of hunting , ,dont give up just re group you will do fine:D
Man I wish you lived closer...we could go at it together. I'm not having that much luck but I'm having a little more luck than you are...lol. I have been going to my spot as much as possible and setting out decoys then just sittin. Not calling or nothing. Gotta have patience bro...i'm still waitin on my first also. Not sure what your schedule is like this week but the last day is Sat. so if you can make it over here b4 then you can crash at my house and we can hit the woods hard for a day and see what happens. If nothing comes of it then just think...deer season is right around the bend!
i'd just bring my bad luck onto you.i'm going to get one if i have to climb up in the roost and kidnap one ha-ha maybe i can show the turkey and the coyotes the video of the dog and deer and they'll play nice from now on lol....
With your attitude BBD, id do what Trevor says... Turkey hunting is all about patience. Try only light calling on ridgetops or feild edges...and WAIT. Sit all day if you really wanna kill a bird.
Man, go buy some new shoes, or a new purse or something. :D Turkey hunting can be extremely frustrating, I know. Well here, how about this. I'm gonna '1 up' ya. Last fall deer season......From November 10-January 15.........I saw 4.....Count them......FOUR..........deer. And I hunt hard. Extremely hard. I know it's tough to stay motivated. You get bored. Tired. Sick of getting up at Oh-Dark-Thirty. Other things you could/should be doing. Sometimes taking a break is just what the doctor ordered. But while it doesn't seem like your chances are very good in the woods........I can promise you that you'll never kill one if you aren't there. Stick with it man. Find where they like to hang out, and hang out there. Good luck man. Just imagine how incredible walking up and picking up that bird is gonna feel!
i appreciate the advice and the tough luv comments.i was frustrated and aggravated and just unloaded i'm sorry 4 sounding like i needed a new pair of shoes or a purse ha-ha i'm going to stay at it.
I hope so buddy, I hope so. My attendance is ....in question. I'm buying a house and..........the events of moving and the G2G are looking like they may coincide......I'll know more in about 2 weeks.
