Texas Spring Turkey Hunting
Turkey Calling Sounds
Glenn looks forward to Texas spring turkey hunting season all year. "Nothing like it. Gets here earlier every year too," he reported with a sly smile.|
|
Well not really. As Glenn gets older it just seems that Texas spring turkey hunting season gets here sooner. Yet it's never too early to brush up on your hunting techniques, don't you think? For instance instead of unleashing your turkey calling sounds (or what passes for them) in a clearing, stick to the edges. Use the brush and shadows to conceal your location. Always have a spot to set up in mind should you get an immediate response from a local tom. Don't want to be caught flat footed. |
Turkeys have tremendous vision. They can spot the smallest detail that seems amiss. For that reason don't call from the top of a ridge. Do your calling just below the top, out of sight.
Listen up. Turkeys scratch in the leaf litter on the ground. They make turkey sounds. Cup you hand behind your ear to hear that or any clucking that might be going on nearby.
Give yourself an edge. Use binoculars. It's always best for you to see the gathered gobblers before they see you.
You've arrived as a hunter when you can use simple stealth and turkey calling sounds to lure birds to you that previously would have heard, seen, or run from you first.
