Actually not much. They seem to have moved out of the places I normally hunt. A friend and I managed to find a group yesterday. I killed 2 and he got 1.
I cant count the times guys have blowed owl hooters and crow calls while I was working a bird. Actually had a guy stalk a gobbler I was working last spring and take a few long shots at it. I had been working the bird for over an hour and finally had him coming in.Grizzly Johnson said:There are turkey there.... along with people. During the spring, you have to deal with the weekend warriors stopping every 1/4 mile to blow an owl hooter or crow call... If your going to get on a bird, you have to get into the woods and get after them...
I have been working birds within ear shot of the access road and guys ride up, jump out, and use a locator with no answer... they leave and 5 minutes later that working bird sounds off to every other of my calls.
The key is to get there early and get back in there where most typically won't.... Hunt Fridays if you can because most people are working and therefore less competition.
I've hunted out there for going on 6-7 years now.... had my share of good and bad.
