What advice would you tell a new turkey hunters adult? Public Land
Great minds think alikeBe patient and willing to walk farther into the woods than other folks. Public land in TN is eat up with people. I'm sure Middle TN is worse but still. Look for sign, you can trust it more than sound. Lot of silent gobblers on public land from being called to by 100 folks a day. Otherwise, spend as much time in the woods as possible and you'll eventually get one.
Stole my words. Sleep in, go to the woods when everyone else is eating Cracker BarrelBoots on the ground... no substitute.
Many 'crowded' public places are wide open after 10 to 11am.
This. No substitute for learning the hard way either. You can read watch video all of that. Doing it is the best teacher.Boots on the ground... no substitute.

I had a cassette tape once by the late, great, Ben Rogers Lee and something he said on that tape has stuck with ever since. "If youre going to start turkey hunting, you better have 2 things: A good job with a good boss, and a good woman, cause if you dont youre gonna lose both of them!"
happened a few years back up near pioneer but it happened to be a game warden that thought the guy was a turkey.And be careful moving around calling. More than one hunter has been shot while hunting another hunter/caller.
Id love to get a copy of that tape! I loaned mine to a buddy and never saw it again.Correct. I have the same cassette tape
