Hello to all,
This will be my first try at turkey bowhunting in the fall this year. Are calls and decoys ever used in the fall? Will I be mainly 'deer hunting' for turkeys?
I would like to hear what you would like to share about turkey hunting in the fall.
Thanks!
Cary

I called in 3 long beards blind calling using a kee kee run last fall. I set up in an area that I knew held turkeys. They came in silent.......looking. One went home with me. I was turkey hunting though. If you are really, really wanting to kill a fall turkey forget the deer and chase turkeys......just sayin'.

Thanks for the answers... very helpful. I have a diaphram call that does a kee-kee run pretty well. I will just be hunting turkeys unless a monster buck walks by by chance. I was referring to laying in wait for them as in deer hunting.

I killed a tom every year but last year out of my tree stand during deer hunting they just walked by during the fall season. Last year I wanted to thin out a hen so I killed one with my shotgun on the ground.

Basically fall turkeys are a target of opportunity while I am bowhunting deer. I was able to kee-kee run 8 long beards in, all in one bunch, last year. 1 rode home with me.

Ok I've heard the "kee kee yelp" on line how do you do the whistle befor the yelp? Do you just whistle with your lips or can you make that sound with a diaphram call?
