Added chore
I’ve been able only to hunt two days this fall season for turkeys, and I’ve been close both days but so far not close enough to shoot. For WMU 4D and a few others, the season lasts until Nov. 21. For many WMUs the season ended yesterday. Turkey hunting will be tougher this week. Flocks have been broken up and shafted around, some several times. They get wise quickly, and so they take their time reassembling. They do it with much less screeching as a rule, and that drives the hunter crazy. All the fall turkey hunting “rules” seem not to work now. Now the legendary turkey hunter’s patience comes into play. If you know where the birds are, you will have more success now just quietly waiting them out rather than doing a lot of loud calling. That has already spooked them. Now you park yourself on a ridge or near a field, play statue and call just every once in a while.

Opening with a mixed bag
Well, since Shirley Grenoble somewhat spilled the beans in her column about my misadventures during our turkey hunting trip last week, I might as well fill in the blanks on that one.

I hunted one day of the senior antlerless hunt last month. All day long my buddy and I kept running into turkeys. So I began the fall turkey season last Monday with high hopes, and sure enough, what I saw all day long was deer.
