Spring Turkey Season

As most hunters know, this time of the year is getting close to spring turkey season. It is one of my favorite seasons because its a challenge to get a big tom turkey in close enough to take a shot. You also have to call them which is tough because tom turkeys are kind of like big whitetail bucks, the older they are the harder they are to hunt and call. Turkeys are constantly being hunted by humans so they can recognize the sound of a hunter calling pretty easily. So having a hen and a Jake decoy in the field next to you will be helpful. They also have very good eyesight so you can't move when they get in close. Wearing a gillie suit and painting your face will help you stay hidden too.
