Stupid Question Alert....New Turkey Hunter

[Specializedjon]

Went on the TWRA site to get my turkey endorsement, couldn't tell which one I needed to hunt turkey. I currently have

Hunt/Fish Combo
Big Game Gun
Big Game Archery

Any help would be appreciated.

I always get the Sportsman's License, but looks like you have what you need with the combo and big game gun. If you want to bow hunt em, you have that covered as well. Just be sure you have applicable management/WMA permits if you go that route…

Get the type 094 if you're planning to hunt WMA's.

Thanks guys. I'm hunting my land in Unit L and my neighbors land. No public hunting.

Sounds like I'm good to go.

 

[Gravey]

Yep you're good with what you've got. Good luck!

Good luck. Yes it is confusing if you don't have the sportsman license.

Thanks Gravey! Pics to follow, hopefully

If there is one thing the turkey Gods HATE, it's an over-confident newbie !

One thing the tndeer God's won't let you do also is use decoys, use a blind, shoot TSS, and if there's anything else they can think of they'll let you know as they make it up after you've already done it. Oh and they are the best in the world and you are scum if you don't agree with them

I forgot to tell you the other day.
I was coming home from the cold drink store and our flock was in the corner of the field just South of the creek and East of country club road.
There was another big flock in the big field before you get to the country club, coming from town, off State Line.

Just to clarify, when you say you currently have, you mean new purchases for the '22-23 license year?

You are good with those if they are not expired licenses.

Awesome. I drove around the Southside of the course Saturday hoping to see them but I didn't. I've been seeing the big flock West of me almost every day. I know the tndeer God's will tell me I'm stupid but those birds have so little pressure they don't move around a lot. Come March and April they should be in my "honey hole" and you seeing them the other day makes me feel great about that!

Correct. Auto renew every Feb.

Good deal! I anticipate some confusion with the folks that bought last fall and "think" they are still good this spring due to the year from date stuff.

Have a safe and enjoyable season!
