    Turkey Troubles

    I tried to get around a couple of them as you said but I just never seemed to be in the right position and as you mentioned a lead hen could have pulled them away. I can definitely use work on my calling but I have had some good "conversations" with a couple of hens this year so I must sound...

    Turkey Troubles

    I have been trying to pattern birds like that but it seems like they are just constantly roaming out here. It seems like they dont have much of a "daily routine", they kind of move all day while feeding and roost where they end up that night

    Turkey Troubles

    Gothca, I hunt in similar areas out here in Colorado. When you move how are you choosing when and where youre going? Do you just listen for gobbles and try to predict where they are going to move to?

    Turkey Troubles

    I feel like a lot og guys are having these problems. I feel my mouth calling is not too bad but Im fairly new to this so who knows haha. All I know is I had a good conversation with a hen pre-season, she came running at me trying to find me and we chatted back and forth for half an hour. Since...

    Turkey Troubles

    Thanks for the info! If you dont mind my asking, how do you determine where they want to be? Is that just something you scout for a few days prior to hunting? I am still trying to find my own "honey holes" so a lot of my hunting is at new places I have never been prior to the day I show up to...

    Turkey Troubles

    It doesnt help when you watch youtube videos and every one you see is these Turkeys running to a call haha! I guess they dont show the birds that dont work the way they want them to!

    Turkey Troubles

    Have you found a certain kind of call works best to get him interested? Did you just throw out a soft yelp?

    Turkey Troubles

    I have heard that you gotta "play hard to get" with these birds lol. I have seen a lotta guys give one good yelp then stay quiet and the bird comes in hard, but as you said, these are not TV star turkeys that come straight in haha!

    Turkey Troubles

    Hey Yall, I had a weird day in the Colorado turkey woods on Sunday, looking for a few tips on things I am doing wrong. So I started the morning walking around a meadow with a few steep ridges coming off of it. Was a sort of scouting hunt to see if it was a good area. Turned out to be a dry...

    Buying Land

    I know I would love it and itd be great in the long-term I just dont want to make myself "land-poor" haha! I bought a house with a VA assumption last year and got it with under a 3% interest rate but had to throw majority of my outside investments at it for the down payment to cover the equity...

    Buying Land

    Nope, just looking to get my feet wet with a smaller property and hold onto it for awhile

    Buying Land

    Right, Im not looking for something massive right now. Something close to where I am living now that I can disappear to on the weekends and let the dog run. Maybe shoot an antelope or Muley now and then. And if I could find a way to make a little bit of cash from it, even better. I am really...

    Buying Land

    I have enough disposable income every month from my day job that would help cover the difference

    Buying Land

    It depends on what I could swing for USDA loans or grants but realistically around 150k. I should have enough saved up in a few months to put a good chunk down on it

    Buying Land

    I would have a mortgage if i decide to buy some property, but I am not expecting leasing that land out to pay all my bills. I would ideally use this property to diversify/ add a couple income streams but would also use them for my own enjoyment as well. Im not planning on holding onto these...
