Gobbler Nation

Hope no one wears that tomorrow on New Yorks crowded Public Lands!!

I am hunting in Orange County,NY. I took a nice 20 pounder with 1 1/8 inch spurs and a 8 inch beard--a 3 year old Took him somewhere in Orange County right next to the Wallkill River. Almost got my 2nd this morning. He was coming to the HS Strut Triple Glass pot and a Hen ran to him! morning ago, I ...

I just saw this new video on Utube with the above title. Not good with links-- but it was interesting. I have a feeling that some members here have some of the same callers shown. It is a short video of 8.47 min.

The wild turkey population is increasing in Orange County,NY and ajjoining to the South- Passaic County, NJ.

One of my Strangest hunts happened off of Clinton Road in New Jersey. This one day, I never heard (any) bird, squirrel, nothing and saw nothing. Had the feeling I was being watched.. Just one day there was like that. That was before co-workers who live near Clinton Road told me this road is featured...

Matt Dale has really good Spring Turkey Hunting videos on Utube. Alot of them.Even older veterans will really like them. His video--- HOW AND WHEN TO USE GOBBLER YELPING was really interesting! Just the way he explains it. Today, I am going to check out,-- THE HUNT FOR OLD SLY. Tune in yourselves to...

I am hunting my home State of New York and New Jersey. I hunt in 3 huge State Parks in New Jersey and all are within 20 miles of where I live in New York. I hunt 2 large State areas in New York and 2 areas off the beaten track-. But, I plan to buy 5 Turkey Tags in New Jersey for each permit period .

I am going to look for the 2018 Spring Edition. Walmart did not have it. I was a long time subscriber as well. Miss that mag and also --American Wild Turkey News. Both are now gone except for a limited edition. Someone here wrote that the 2018 issue is really thin. If it is like 12 pages or so, I pr...

I just bought this book with the above title by GENE NUNNERY last late Winter and was so good that I am going to reread it again! I live in New York- so I have time. We start on May 1st and New Jersey opens on April 23rd. I have more free time this Spring and am buying 4 or 5 tags in New Jersey and ...

Morning members. I live in South New York in Orange County and today we are getting hit again with our 4th major snowstorm in March. Turkeys seem to be doing well however as I have seen a bunch of 3-toed tracks in the crusty snow on State Land in Orange County ty while out scouting. Hope this storm ...

Afternoon good members. I heard my 1st Gobbler of the year this morning! Right near to my house as well. I live in Orange County NY and this was a great start to St. Patrick's Day!

Sounds great! Luck to you in the Spring Turkey woods this year!

I have always heard that the Black Hills is the place to be.

Really nice pics!

Every year, I read about Turkey hunters starting out in the deep South -- but really not too much about where Turkey hunters will finish up. So , if you live in the South-- will you bag some Gobblers up North in May to finish your Season?

Going to try to upload a pic of a nice spot where I can wait on a incoming Gobbler. It is just one woods road that branches off into 2 others.

Just learning how to post pics from my Smartphone. I like the above locator because no one else will have on. I got this train whistle from Tuscarora Game Calls. Good for a - Gobbler on The Limb.

I have 2 areas in New Jersey and 3 areas in New York that are a good 1 1/2 miles from the parking area. They are public of course, so I early in each Spring Season, I get up at 2am as I want to be first to park and and the first to my Hot areas. 5 Gobblers each Spring is my goal and is plenty . Slow...

Don't know. I know, I have seen Spring hunters in a full out sprint to get to where that Tom is gobbling. They never see me. I never saw this in the 90s. I hike year round- so for myself, I try to get back a good 1 1/2 miles. A few Springs back, I biked on in on my Ranger Mountain bike and a guy sho...

2,000 is indeed alot of money for this. I wonder if this will get more popular with Spring Turkey Hunters??

I did get 1 issue last March I believe. Looking everywhere and a Cumberland Farms had a few. Hope there are more issues for this Spring as well. I actually still have the very 1st issue from 1991. Keep this post going and somebody please post here if Turkey And Turkey Hunting will be out this Spring...

I think reaping/fanning is very dangerous! I just voted on #4.

Sounds like a really nice new area to Spring Turkey Hunt!!

More mid-morning scouting rather then pre-dawn so that I don't burn myself out too early in the Season!
