It would be cool to get it down pat with my own voice. so far I can do a half decent barred owl locator and your old fashioned yelp pretty good. i was thinking a box or slate for my first season until i get the voice calls down.
Meant no disrespect by calling them 'Timber chicken's'. I'm just a joker that's all man. also, i do realize that many would rather not comment on the population of turkey there but it's still a big place that is tough to navigate for game, regardless of species. not for the faint of heart. i intend to put my own footwork in to locate my own spot and birds. I made a similar post about the deer population there last season and was welcomed with advice and even met a member whom i hunted with there, so didn't think this would be much different. i just like a good conversation about hunting/fishing etc. and just like you i look forward mostly to being in those hills regardless if i get anything, although that would be a plus.We don't call them 'thunder chickens' here, that's disrespectful
Remember, any discussion is accessible to the entire world with a few clicks of the button, so don't expect a lot of comments on this topic from those who hunt South Cherokee.
That being said, I've never hunted South Cherokee, but one of these days I'm going to just for the experience of hunting turkeys in mountains. Dont care if I kill one there, but I will consider the trip a failure if I at least don't hear one gobble.
Slim pickings up there for sure but man it is a gorgeous place.
That would be nice to use your own voice,I heard a few that were really good making crow calls and owl hoots,good luck to you!
There used to be a few grouse in there IF you were crazy enough to go in there after them.
I did stir a couple up last season surprisingly. get's me every time cause i never expect to see them these days lol
Meanest steepest stuff I've ever grouse hunted.
Lots of pressure and limited birds on the Southern endYou need to hunt North Cherokee. Our googan quota is full here in South Cherokee.
