I asked this question a while back and got a few different answers...let's try again with the new crowd. I've killed exactly one turkey in my 3-year career, which happened to gobble just as I was getting ready to pick up and relocate after about 1/2 hour or so of calling with no response. The next year I took that to heart and stayed in the same place for quite a bit longer, even if I didn't hear any response. I spent a lot of time on my butt when I could have been moving to more productive areas. So, the next year I went back to shorter sits in seemingly dead locations, and got busted by a tom putting the silent sneak on me from behind. If I had sat still for another 10 minutes he'd have been mine.
So, the question...how do you know when to get up and move? Do you stay in one place for a certain time regardless of activity, or move often when the turkeys aren't responding, or what?
Meathead tells me my ground is hard to hunt for turkeys, so I need all the help I can get before season starts in a few weeks!
