Shut Up and Listen (for Turkeys)

The turkey hunter’s ears will find more turkeys than his eyes will. But you can’t hear a turkey gobble, especially if he’s a long way off, if you’re not being extremely quiet. A good friend of mine, Tom Kelly, explained it best when he said, “You’ve got to cause your whole body to become an ear.”

Many Turkey Hunters Walk Past Turkeys They Can Take

Many times I’ve been filming other hunters trying to call turkeys. After they’ve used their owl calls and their crow calls and cackled to try and make a turkey gobble, they’ll say, “There must not be a gobbler here. Let’s go to another place.” I’ll smile and say, “Do you mind if I blow my loud nasty tube call before we leave?” Many times I’ll make a turkey gobble close by that hadn’t answered any

Cuz's Turkey Secrets

To be a successful turkey hunter this season, spend much more time finding places to hunt turkeys and locating the gobblers on the land you have to hunt than you do practicing your turkey calls. Let’s be honest. Although we all like to practice turkey calling, the beautiful and wonderful turkey sounds that you know how to make are totally useless, if you don’t pinpoint places to hunt turkeys and know where the gobblers on

Stalking the Badlands of North Dakota

Hunting at what appears to be the edge of the world is more than surreal, it takes your breath away but allows you to continue breathing. It’s sensory overload without being so overwhelming that the world as you know it ceases to exist at that moment. It takes days of mornings, work whistles, dog kisses, and mundane trips to the supermarket after to realize how amazing that one hunt was.

So, one of the best tips I can give turkey hunters this season is to spend some time at your local sporting-goods store, check-out the new turkey shotguns on the market, study the turkey chokes and get a five pack of turkey loads from several different manufacturers in No. 4, 5, 6 and 7-1/2. Then go to the rifle range with some turkey head targets, and see how those guns pattern at 20-60 yards.

What to Do if You Don’t Take a Turkey as Soon as He’s Flown Down

with Terry Drury Even though Mark is a World Champion turkey caller, knowing where the turkeys want to be and getting to that place before they do is much-more effective than fancy calling. We want to become a part of that turkey’s natural daily routine. Ninety-eight percent of the time, woodsmanship will pay more turkey dividends than great calling will.

Terry Drury on Getting Close to Take a Turkey’s Temperature

That’s one of the real secrets to consistently taking turkeys. If you study the turkeys on the land you hunt, if you know where they like to roost, and where they like to fly to when they leave the roost, you can take turkeys throughout turkey season. When we first started hunting turkeys on our land, we didn’t have the birds patterned very well. Now that we’ve been hunting this property for many years, when

Terry's Turkey Tips

The first turkey I ever took was with Toxey Haas, the founder of Mossy Oak. Toxey came to hunt with us in Bloomsdale, Missouri, where our mom and dad live, and where Mark and I grew up. Finally, my turn came to pack the gun, and Mark’s turn came to run the camera. Toxey and I went hunting, and Toxey called in that first turkey for me.
