 Mississippi Delta Wild Turkey Stalking and Calling
One method of turkey hunting is called stalking. Stalking is to pursue prey or quarry in a stealthy manner. This requires the hunter to move very slowly and quietly after the turkey. Some states have regulations on when and whether you can do this. Pennsylvania, for example, does not allow for the hunter to stalk a turkey during its spring turkey season. Stalking can be a dangerous hunting technique when used on public land and land occupied by other hunters as the movement and noise of a hunter walking through the woods (and possibly using calls that sound like turkeys) could potentially draw the fire of others in close proximity. This technique should only be considered on private property with no one else around.
Calling is the opposite of stalking. When calling, the hunter uses hen turkey Sounds to bring the male turkey to him, rather than having to go to the turkey as in stalking. Various hen calls can be simulated to bring the turkey closer to the hunter because turkeys are extremely vocal. These include yelps, clucks, purrs, fighting purrs, and the Kee Kee. Hunter have also been known to gobble like a male turkey to make another male believe there is another bird trying to take over his area. Gobbling is often a last resort as other hunters could attempt to hunt the caller.

Mississippi Delta Wild Turkey Hunting Decoys
Turkey Decoys are a great aid to turkey hunters and can add tremendous excitement and pull in wary gobblers that might normally pass out of range, however, it’s not as easy as throwing out a decoy and expecting turkeys to overrun you. Turkey decoys must be seen to be effective. Open pastures or sparse woods are good spots for turkey decoys.
One of the great benefits of a turkey decoy is that it takes the focus off of you, the hunter. Normally dominant toms that come in to the decoy are focused solely on the decoy, enabling the hunter to more comfortably come to full draw and make the shot on an animal that is not on "danger alert." Just make sure to place the decoy at least 15 to 20 yards (18 m) away from your position.

Mississippi Delta Wild Turkey Hunting Supplies
When hunting wild turkeys, camouflage should be worn head to toe to keep from being seen. A turkey’s eyesight is excellent and any quick or unnatural movement can cause the bird to become wary and quickly run off. Wearing camouflage clothing, putting a camouflage covering on one’s gun, or using a camouflage blind are some methods often used. Some states require that blaze orange is worn when the hunter is entering or leaving the woods. Hiding behind small bushes or limbs will greatly enhance camoflage Turkey hunts, Mississippi wild turkey hunts, Mississippi Delta wild turkey hunts, Mississippi turkey hunting land, Mississippi spring turkey hunts, Mississippi Gobbler hunts, Mississippi wild turkey hunts, Thacker Mountain Lodge does it all.
There are 2 main types of turkey calls. They are friction calls and mouth calls. There are three main types of friction calls. One type is called a slate call, or peg and pot call. This call is used by scratching the end of a peg over the surface of the call. The surface of the call can be made out of materials such as slate or glass. Another type of friction call is called a box call. This is used by scratching the lid of the call across the sides that support it. The final type of friction call is the push-button call, which involves pushing a peg back and forth through a hole in the call.
Mouth calls are used by inhaling and exhaling air through them. One type of mouth call is called a diaphragm call and is typically used when a turkey is too close to the hunter to use a friction call. Close to 4,000 years ago, Native Americans were making mouth calls out of the wing bones of the turkeys themselves.
