If you don’t have an idea of possible land to hunt, or areas within a unit to hunt, this is a short-term must do. Check with other hunters through a local wildlife club, or investigate some possible turkey habitat and potential landowners who may allow hunting access. Identifying a place to hunt is probably the most important preparation you’ll make.

it comes to securing a place to hunt.

You may find landowners frustrated with the number of turkeys in and around their farmstead. This can work in your favor as far as obtaining permission to hunt, as many landowners welcome turkey hunters.

On the other hand, there may be other hunters in the same area with the same idea. If you desire an undisturbed place to call in a turkey, be up front with the landowner and explain, if possible, that you’d like to coordinate with other potential hunters who may also have permission. Perhaps you might be able to hunt one small area of the land, while other hunters agree to hunt another piece of the property.

First and foremost, remember it’s up to the landowner.

Another factor to consider is that just because you’ve secured permission to hunt, don’t assume that also includes your friends or other family members. Be up front and let the landowner know how many are in your group, and what type of vehicle you’ll be driving. Most landowners will remember your vehicle and if they observe another, they may wonder what’s going on.

Happy Hunting and keep your arrows straight >>>------------>
