OUTDOORS

In my humble opinion, wild turkeys are the crappie of the hunting world. At times, such as when crappie gang up in large numbers in the shallows to spawn, they can be ridiculously easy to catch but much of the time, they are one of the more challenging fish to pattern, likewise with turkeys.

I have taken first time turkey hunters out in past years when the gobblers would come running to anything that remotely sounded like a hen turkey. When a turkey hunter ‘hits the timing right’, it’s easy to be a turkey hunting super star. A hunt I enjoyed up in Palo Pinto County three years ago with my friend Deryl Markgraf is a good case in point.
