I’ve been a deer hunter all my life. Been trying to figure out public land turkeys for 5 years on my own. I whiffed on a bird 2 years ago(first I ever called in)...didn’t get to hunt last year because of COVID. I finally got it done today. Public land Central Illinois.3yr ⋅ JoeBob_42 ⋅ r/turkeyhunting

Harvested my first turkey yesterday, after a long season got a jake by myself on public land. Called 3 jakes in and was able to put one down!2yr ⋅ davebobciroq ⋅ r/turkeyhunting
Got one Finally after three years! I have a question. I've seen a lone hen for the past three days head up to what I though may have been a roost but she is always alone and never followed by a tom. Is there a possibility she's headed up to her nest rather than the roost? GA turkey season 4/1/231yr ⋅ gingersnuts ⋅ r/turkeyhunting

Second bird of the season. He was an incredibly mobile, never staying in one place for long. Incredibly intelligent, but practicing during the off season with my ghost cut got the better of him. Ontario3yr ⋅ schnofl ⋅ r/turkeyhunting

Third bird ever for me, the smallest of all. My first hunt was a grueling 13 hours long and the second was only about 6. Possibly the first bird shot in Tennessee around 7:15 this morning. An awesome short trip and I did not have a guide with me!4yr ⋅ gb545 ⋅ r/turkeyhunting
