Turkey Hunting. Wanting to go this Spring

<< < (2/2)

PAHunter:
A friendly talk with a farmer can go a long way.  I have had a good amount of success going door to door in he past. 

Shaneisneato:
That's what I'm thinking. Theres some corn fields with stands of cedar bordering my parents land that I was gonna ask the owner if I could hunt turkey on. I've heard that farmers are a lot more open about people coming in to hunt turkey versus someone coming on to hunt deer.

crooketarrow:
  Your right about there turkey hunting. People are more excepting about turkey hunting. I've never really had a problem getting permission.

  Take a well behaved kid. I only bow hunt. Except for shooting doe's. Shooting doe's from a hill top with a 280's not hunting.

  Alot of times I'll talk bows and bow building. If I show them my bow It's on usually.
  I've had 4 or 5 people laugh And say if that's what your using go ahead.  Back in the 80's I ask farmers they say go ahead there no turkeys here. Not like that anymore. EVERY FARMS COVER IN YELLOW SIGNS

  That's the worst poision. I can think of but I do the same on my farms.

  What you don't do is show up  in camo with a friend couple days before the season and ask to rifle hunt.  Bows are not looked apond like rifles.

Shaneisneato:
That was my plan with asking people in the future. Figure if I show up with a bow in the car to show em, they might be at least be interested in seeing if I can even get anything with it  ::) Also I kind of was thinking if I don't ask about deer but just spring turkey, varmints, etc. staying away from fall deer season which is the only thing most people hunt I will have better luck with getting a yes.

What do you mean yellow sign? As in No Trepassing signs or what?
