Groups of hens and gobblers will often pitch directly into a field well out of range of turkey hunters. These “field birds” are difficult to hunt, and veteran hunters have been known to be successful by squatting and moving into the field behind decoys. Stafford’s late season observations and tactics
April 15 at 7:00 am
Randy Stafford has been turkey hunting in Louisiana since he was a youngster — even when there was a very small population that could be hunted.

Glen Williams advises hunters wishing to score later in the season to stay in the woods and be patient well past the morning. Hunters may have to reposition often to get to working gobblers. Public lands available for late season hunting

For the most part, Louisiana state WMAs have a very shortened season, yet arguably the late season tactics offered here may apply just after opening weekend depending upon the amount of hunters on any specific area.

John Tanner's Purring Block combines trough-slate and glass surfaces to produce seductive soft purrs and clucks. 'Purring block' combines slate, glass to make toms make fatal mistakes
April 10 at 11:14 am
South Carolina call-maker John Tanner gets ideas for some of his custom-made calls from interesting places, but none better than a deer stand.

Tanner’s newest call, the “Purring Block” showed up on his drawing board last December after an afternoon in the woods deer hunting.

“I was sitting in my deer stand, when a flock of turkeys came by, feeding up the edge of a cornfield,” said Tanner, who gained recognition in his home state when he started making calls out of ancient cypress that had been aged at 46,000 years. “I listed to them communicating, and they were making little quiet, soft purrs. I got to thinking, ‘I can reproduce that sound.’”

A couple of months of tinkering resulted in the Purring Block, a two-sided call – a slate trough on one side and a circle of bead-blasted glass on the other – made just for those instances when a hunter needs a soft purr or cluck to make a gobbler commit to those last few yards that might prove to be his undoing.

The Shake-N-Jake is the first ever full body, full motion turkey decoy. MOJO has teamed up with world champion turkey caller Preston Pittman to develop this realistic looking decoy that not only attracts game, but diverts attention away from the hunter. The Shake-N-Jake raises its tail and fans it while simultaneously turning its body, just like a real gobbler. Its remote control will work up to 150 feet away and the 2 foot steel-mounting stake stores easily inside the decoy.

Chad Bowen, former NWTF Field representative, said a successful technique for field birds is to move into the opening behind a Primos B-Mobile full decoy or the decoy's full fan to get within range. But he doesn't recommend this strategy on public lands. Late-season lingo — Learn how to fool wary turkeys

Veteran turkey hunter Randy Stafford remembers well one late-season hunt for a very wizened longbeard.

“This old gobbler would not roost in the same place two days in a row,” the 65-year-old president of the Louisiana Chapter of the National Wild Turkey Federation said. “On the morning after the first hunt for that bird, we heard him gobbling far away from us.”

Stafford and his hunting partner saw the bird in a field with two other gobblers later in the afternoon.
