Also, if you see or hear any sign of a turkey around you, call every minute or so to try and pull them in. Animals are far less likely to respond to an animal call if they are engaged in a need zone. If a need zone ends and a turkey group is near by, this will catch their attention and pull them to you. Head out to one at like 4:30 am, don't run, crouch on approach.Ĭall with the turkey call every time a 30 in game minute marker passes 5:30, 6:00 etc. The box stands in Colorado are a lot better than the other maps. I'm actually finding a lot of these that are good! The one on the shore of lake sides that aren't buried in the woods are usually good. I've gotten 5+ turkeys each time I've sat and done this for a few hours.Įither put up a stand yourself near turkey need zones, or build the default box stands that are near turkey zones. I've actually had a lot of luck with the following pretty easy method (since making my last posts) though that's only if you consider patience easy I suppose. So while that will work, it will spook off any diamonds from the group. Just worth mentioning, if you place a stand down every diamond in 300 yards is gone. They have a hard plate in the dead center of the chest. Feels a little cheaty almost, not really realistic at all either.įINAL TIP: Don't shoot them straight on at the front! Go off to the side a bit. I can score just amazing shots on them this way. They are weirdly hard to startle if you can get up on them at night. Don't run, but don't creep around super slow. After that they vanish into the bushes typically.ĮDIT: This 1st one is actually pretty similar to a real life turkey hunting technique! Though, it's usually done with shotguns loaded with bird shot, it can certainly be done with 22s like the one in game.Ģ) Creep around turkey sleep zones at night. Don't fire all ten shots at it in the air, always leave at least one or two! As when it lands there's a brief window to get a nice shot off at it. Once spooked into the air, there's a good chance you can get them. They have GOOD eye sight, so if you move slow they'll see you coming and have plenty of time to slink into the bushes.
Stop when your heart rate goes up to catch your breath. (Using the hard / polymer rounds and the 22) I haven't tried the decoys yet, but because the duck decoys I have haven't impressed me yet.ġ) Run (don't walk) up and down the tree lines near any active turkey need zone. I have found two good ways to hunt turkeys for full integrity! Neither of them are terribly consistent at getting a turkey to show, but I can consistently get gold/silvers almost every single time one does show itself.
