Turkey Hunt This Morning

I went out again this morning.  I am going to detail what happened on the outside chance that someone may read this and give me some input.  I am hunting private ground along the Sacramento River.  This place has many turkeys and gets very little hunting pressure.

My First Turkey Hunt

So let me set the stage and background for you.  I have been turkey hunting a few times before and have actually been fortunate enough to harvest two birds.  What I haven't done is go by myself.  Each time I have had someone with substantial experience be my guide and call.  I have been wanting to learn and go more but time and access to ground have been barriers.  This year some of that changed - I met some people that have land that is just about perfect for turkey hunting.  Now all I needed was time - which given the land access, I made time! Finally, I needed experience to go with that time.  It is that education and experience hurdle that hung me up but I was not going to be deterred.  I have spent the last few weeks reading turkey hunting books and articles, going to seminars, getting advice from friends and lets not forget driving the family crazy calling yelps on the box call!  My five year old will actually gooble and come find me now!  Anyway I think you get the picture - I am overboard!
