Just like the guy said. SHUT UP !!! - 04/25/15
I've taken a few birds and called a few for the kids and grandkids. Apparently doing it wrong all along. We just finished a cabin in SW Va mountains and been looking forward to turkey hunting up there. I took several books and one magazine to read since there is no TV, no computer, no cell, no nothing up there. The one mag was Turkey Talk from 1995. Giving advice on different hunting situations, the author (Ken Casada I believe), said if you get an answer to a pre dawn locator call, get within 100 yds, and tree yelp or cluck. Once the gobbler answers, SHUT UP !!! All these years I have been calling back in forth until he hits the ground and walks off with the hens that came to all the gobbling.
So Thursday I hit the pre dawn woods, owl call, gobble, sit down, two clucks, and SHUT UP !!! 30 mins later, I got my first gobbler of the season.
