Fall hunting in the US is basically for turkeys which make it also one of the most exciting moments for hunters in Abbeville Georgia. Here are a few fall hunting tips that will get you way ahead of the game.
The breaks
One of the biggest challenges when it comes to hunting fall turkeys is having them to regroup but is considerably easier as compared to hunting other animals. Hunters who are fond of the call will find it easier to bust them and then make a call to draw them nearer to gun range for the perfect kill. Most people will indicate that you will need close to 30 minutes before the turkeys regroup but this will happen sooner in most cases with some coming down to their previous spot in lesser than 10 minutes.
A good turkey dog is an important addition for the purpose of spooking the birds into a bust and the best way to do all this remains applying stealth on your way towards the birds and making a perfect shot if you can get close enough to drop one.
Keep the call on
Turkeys are a pretty curious bunch which also makes them a really easy target especially if you can match their calls into a frenzy drawing them towards you but are also easily spooked meaning you can lose the flock just as fast. This means that you can easily draw a whole flock towards you within firing range simply using your mouth to make the calls as compared to using tools. You will need to practice your calls often enough in order to get as close as possible to the different calls hey make.
Get wet
Turkeys like humans really hate getting wet which means that they will not fly during the rain and will also keep away from the woods or places where water will drip from above them as this will soak their feathers incapacitating their flight. They will prefer the open fields so as to keep the rain rolling off their feathers making the an easy target at this point meaning you will have to brave the rain and get soaking wet for an easy kill. Getting up early will also have you make an easy score contrary to the beliefs of many when it comes to fall hunting.
Fall hunting in Abbeville Georgia will need a good gun, stealth, proper calling techniques and a good dog to be a success besides the fact that the birds are an easy find.
