Stick with it, don’t get too hung up on just killing one, enjoy the spring woods, observe the turkey sign , you’ll find a lonely bird sooner or later. Good luck
This week down east after the first day it was spot and stalk. I'm no expert but 2 county's and 4 days at it the birds had no intrest in calling, hens or fighting. So it boiled down to stalking up on them. Behind the fan. Crawling to the next ridge in feilds stalking along feild edges and through the woods and along Cyprus trees in the swamp. What ever it takes right? Don't get caught up in there is only one way to kill a bird.
The birds at my place have vanished so don’t get to discouraged, I’m in the same boat eating some tag soup of the 5 times I’ve been out and only hearing 1 bird across the creek that wouldn’t commit.
