Turkey Hunting Tactics: on the move vs. hunkering down

huntingwithjim · April 21, 2008, 01:37 PM

Hi,

I've only been turkey hunting three times, and I can't say I know a whole lot about it, so i'm curious what others think works best: Do you think it's best to walk around making calls until you get a response or two, then go a bit closer to the calls before setting up decoys, or is it best to just choose a location, hunker down and get quiet and then start making calls while remaining ever so quite?

thanks.

As soon as you get a response to your call you need to sit immediately and start calling. Moving around will just get you busted if the bird is anywhere close.
