Holding Wild Turkeys: The Missing Link

Some gamekeepers have roost trees, water source, mast crop, food plots and bugging areas all going for them, yet wonder why they don’t have turkeys but their neighbors do. The answer is probably "grit!"

Understanding Patterns and Calling for Predator Hunting

I once caught five bobcats out of the same trap placed in the same location. The following year, I caught four bobcats in that same trap. So, I learned that you can pattern predators much like you pattern deer. Year after year, predators will return to some of the same places where you’ve caught them previously. Predators are much like cockroaches and wild hogs – you can beat their numbers back, but you’ll never entirely

Bucks, Birds and Bowfishing

I like to fish, too, and my husband and I compete in carp shooting tournaments (bowfishing) during the summer months. I always have loved to be outside, and I guess that’s due to my dad always taking me with him when he went hunting and fishing. I’m only 1-1/2 years younger than my brother, but I think I’m more into fishing and hunting than he is. Of course, that may be because he has two

Land Leases, Scent Control and Hog Hunting in Texas

Most of Texas’s deer and turkey hunting land is tied up in leases. Many hunters haven’t considered the possibility of leasing land in Texas to hunt deer and turkeys, because they believe that all the leases already have been taken. However, Texas is a big state, and it has a lot of land and a lot of deer and turkeys on those lands.

A Failed Turkey Hunting Test

I took my son Colton on his first turkey hunt when he was 5 years old. We hadn’t walked too far from my truck before I started calling, and several gobblers answered. I knew about how far the turkeys were from where we were. So, I set up a ground blind. I told Colton to get inside the blind and be as quiet as possible, while I ran back to the truck and parked it

Hunting in Streamside Management Zones

During bow season in Alabama, I’m looking for good stands of oaks that are producing a good number of acorns. Often I’ll find those oak trees in Streamside Management Zones (SMZs are areas of forests adjacent to bodies of water like ponds, rivers, creeks and intermittent streams that serve as filter strips for surface water runoff.) between two different ages of stands of pine trees.

Wildlife Biologists Can Help Hunters

One of the reasons that I believe the wildlife biologist who’s responsible for that WMA can tell you the best place to find an older-age-class buck is that hunters check in their deer and turkeys on the WMA and are supposed to tell the biologists where they’ve taken the animals or birds.

Resources for Scouting Public Land

I’ve found that my cell phone GPS is much more convenient for me to carry than a designated hand-held GPS receiver. By scouting in the early season and choosing my tree stand sites, I often can reach my stand site without having to use my GPS.

How To Create a Turkey Friendly Property

In the early spring, I go back into our green fields and plant wheat for the turkeys. There’s also clover in many of the BioLogic mixes we plant for deer. We leave some of our ground freshly plowed, because turkeys seem to like fresh earth. I’ll see them bugging in the crops we've planted for them and the mature birds dusting in that freshly turned earth where we don’t plant anything. We’re also conscious of
