Hunting Turkeys in the Rain

Rain is an inevitable aspect of spring turkey hunting. They say that April showers bring May flowers, you know. Unfortunately for turkey hunters, we want to be in the field and on the hunt throughout the month of April. Resulting in an inevitable clash between turkey hunting and spring weather. This seems like an obvious and irrelevant reality to be talking about, but hear us out on this one. Talking rain and turkey hunting is an important thing to touch on. Whether you’re an

Try this Trail Camera Trick for Turkey Scouting

Trail cameras are a regular scouting tool come deer season, but so many hunters leave them inside when making the transition to spring turkey hunting.

Dreaming of a Spring Turkey Tour

Photo by October Greenfield/Audubon Photography Awards If you had a completely open schedule, a nice truck with a full tank of gas, and the ability to go hunt as many states as you could during the spring turkey season, where would you go? As a diehard turkey hunter, I have always dreamed of taking a spring turkey tour. Hitting multiple states and racking up a truckload of fresh turkey breasts, beards, and tail-fans. Something that you would see your favorite hunting pro emba

It's Finally March in the Great Outdoors

The month of March has arrived at last and we can bid farewell to February. No offense to those of you who love February for whatever reason, but it has never ranked high on my list when it comes to my favorite times of the year. Maybe it's just because I hail from dark and cold Ohio, or maybe it's just because February stinks. Let's be honest, it's a bit of both. February isn't much fun for outdoorsmen and women anywhere. Most deer hunting seasons end in February, daylight h

Video: Jason Hunts for Thanksgiving Turkey

With deer movement very slow and sporadic, Mass Pursuit TV’s Jason Norris attempted to take full advantage of our large wild turkey population during the last hours of our mid-October deer hunt. The mission quickly shifted from doe management or a trophy buck to a hen turkey, at least for a second. Ohio’s fall turkey hunting season opened up way back on October 13th, and hens are fair game during the fall season. You can harvest a single turkey of either sex, so we were simpl

Late-Season Turkey Strategies

Photo by NOLA.com Late-season turkey hunting can be a tricky play for the spring hunter who has yet to fill that coveted tag. The pressure is on to get the job done, but the turkeys never seem to play along. Late-spring gobblers can be downright tough. To steal a little Yogi Berra-ism, it gets late early in spring turkey season. One week you are starting your season, just a few weeks later you are getting ready to finish it up. It's a short-lived season that simply does not l

Success in Memories

For most outdoorsmen, success is measured in results. Big whitetail mounts on the wall, meat in the freezer, or fish in the boat. After all, it is the end-goal of the outdoor sports. We're supposed to go home with something in tow. As we all know, not every hunt can end with the prototypical definition of success. Hunting is a game of failure. You take ten hunts to get that big spring turkey. You may even take ten years. It's all of the "failure" that really mounts to make th

Turkey Hunting: It's All About the Setup

Photo by Newton Daily News Our coverage of turkey hunting month in America continues as we turn our attention to the always important topic of turkey hunting setups in this installment. Because your setup is everything in turkey hunting. Turkey hunting is often treated as more of a spontaneous and non-strategic sport in comparison to whitetail hunting. Hunters tend to rely heavily on locating birds and leveling the playing field by calling them in. Putting entirely too much s

Locating the Strut Zone

Some say that locating a wild turkey's strut zone is the telltale sign to putting a bird in the back of your turkey vest when the season rolls around. While several other factors are obviously being overlooked, those folks may be on to something. For those who are not familiar with the intricacies of turkey hunting, a strut zone is simply an area where a tom turkey routinely goes into full-strut to show off for hens. These zones can be frequented throughout the year, but they

As more states open their spring turkey hunting seasons by the week, we thought it would be a good idea to celebrate with a hypothetical article to get the wheels turning on turkey season.

Keeping Turkeys on Your Property

Wild turkeys are like the ugly step child when it comes to wildlife management in North America. We love to hunt them each spring but we would rather give our full attention to the majestic whitetail deer the rest of the year. Unless you are a legitimate turkey nut, you probably only worry about turkeys for a few months each year. Maybe two or three months before the spring season and the month or so that most of us get to actually chase them. Fall turkey seasons are a total

Spring turkey seasons are getting ready to kick off in full force across the southern US. Those of you in South Florida have already been after it for a few weeks chasing the weary Osceola. Whether you're in the South and making your final preparations for turkey season or you're stuck in the North with over a month of waiting, we can all kick the spring strut off in some form or fashion.

Avoiding Cabin Fever: Post-Deer Season Options

The month of February can be rough on the deer and turkey hunters of America, especially if you're in the North and staring at a couple of long, cold months before spring turkey season. With most deer seasons now closed, cabin fever and the off-season blues can definitely set in. Those other outdoor activities are good and all, but nothing compares to deer season. The tried and true American whitetail hunting tradition. It's depressing to see it go for the next six to eight m
