I have both a vest with seat (Cadilac) and a waist fanny pack (Porche). The waist pack seems to go out with me more than the vest, I use an "air saddle" seat cushion with it, when it's time to run and gun, I want to be ready to go. Heat never seemed to be bothersome with the vest, I just like...
You're going to be hooked for life! Kentucky is one of the best places to hunt turkeys in the spring. Hopefully you are hunting with an experienced turkey hunter your first time, there is a lot to learn. My movement has busted more hunts than I care to say-stay still-get a comfortable seat.
I am...
I have found Florida public land hunting a little tough :mad:-all kinds of traffic.
Therma cell!!! YES!!! Bring a center fire rifle, if you are at the end of your hunt you may want to bring it out.:D
Look into private land if possible. Good Luck!
You have gotten some great advice here, turkey hunting is a blast.
Don't forget a camera! When I first started turkey hunting my list was alot shorter than it is now, back then I used- camo from head to toe, inflatable seat, 1 box call, a flashlight, crow call, a foam hen and jake decoy and a...
Spring Turkey hunting only comes once a year...I get out early, mid day and often. Took a Boss Tom last year at 3:00pm in the cold rain, some years I'm lucky enough to take one off the roost, 9:00am through noon is also a productive time for me. Evening hunts are tough for me personally, so I...
I'm fortunate to have permission for some private land in Falmouth and Dry Ridge, I love it. I tried a public do it yourself hunt in Florida without much success, alot of traffic came through, most weren't hunters. This year I'm trying for a private land hunt in Fl. but a do it yourselfer. Wish...
I use my crow call with the most success, the farms I hunt are private which enables me to also use a jake gobble sparingly with good results. Maybe my owl hoots are just that a "hoot" because I can't get a response. Good luck this year.
Even though I had a guide it was still a hunt. Those "mountains" are almost straight up, my legs burned for 5 days. I hunted puplic land with some good amount of pressure in EHU 3. The weather was hot and the bulls were not bugling much. The only nice bull we saw was on the 5th night, I shot him...
My hunt last year cost about 2,600 all inclusive. One on one guide, tip, lodging, processing, field dressing and transport, meals, gas, mount. Memories priceless. I shot a nice 6x6 on the 5th day of the rifle hunt. Good Luck.
