Leave your gobble call at home. Many hunts have been loused up when nearby hunters move in to find the "gobbler". You can take your tom without a gobble call anyway.

......HEY GUYS,....treat all firearms as if they are loaded and always point the muzzle in a safe direction, and keep a eye on your hunting partner,to see how safe they are,and remind them if they are not.!!!!and never put your finger on the trigger until ready to shoot!!!also during your hunt check often to see if your safety is still on....... please add a safety tip!!! ....we all need a refresher course in turkey hunting safety every year... thanks....turkey scout

heres' another safety tip.. resist the urge to stalk turkey sounds!!its is nearly impossible to sneak-up on a turkey. it also could lead to an accident. also while moving thru your hunting territory, make sure your decoys heads are hidden in your vest, so that you will not be mistaken for a turkey.while scouting . during pre season ,leave your turkey calls at home, its' not a good idea to educate the turkeys before the season. i do bring my locater calls ,like a owl call or peacock call to shock the gobbler to gobble( trying to pattern his movement, he could be heading to his favorite strut area or he"s already there)....turkey scout
