How many plan to hunt turkeys this fall? Since I didn't score a spring gobbler I plan on trying to take one this fall. I might go to southern Indiana for the gun season or try locally with archery. h.h.

I have my tags but I will be concentrating on deer; a "target of opportunity" as Woody would say. My daughter on the other hand - turkey all the way.

I'm after a smoke phase hen I've seen for two seasons, I'll be chasing her every chance I get!

If I keep seeing as many here as I did today, I'll be out. They are thicker than thieves up here from what I understand, and I have seen more than enough to fully believe what I'm told.

Target of opportunity for me too. Unless I see a few on a regular basis and think I can score one.

I see more fall turkeys while I'm out digging ginseng than I do while hunting them in the fall. Maybe I'll go digging with my shotgun during the gun season if I haven't scored a bow kill by then....

I will be out after them. I always hunt for turkey first then deer in the fall. A deer is a target of oppotunity until I get my fall bird or the season ends. The deer really don't moving good where I hunt until after turkey season is closed.

Found out today that the turkey license here is only $16 for residents (I still need to convince the town clerk I am one...) and it includes the spring tag too! Thinking I've gotta have a regular hunting license in addition, which is $20-25 (can't remember exactly). Best part is, fall archery (the only way I can hunt them where I'm located) runs September 15-December 15!!

I'm a deer hunter first and foremost. If a turkey comes by me I will attempt to take it. Other than that I have no plans on hunting them.

Out tree rat hunting I found the roost tree and evidence they have been all over. I might have to go after them first and pick up the deer later....

I have run into decent numbers of birds on every piece of property I have been on so far this year, including the 18 I walked up on this morning. With me going bow hunting seriously again this year I will be looking for the chance to take one.

I dont go out and hunt them in the fall, but I have killed one every year out of my tree stand that the fall season has been in. Up in that Cedar tree they cant see me.
