Head out into the field with the right gear. Keep in mind these factors when selecting hunting equipment for spring turkey season:
Turkey Calls: Produce realistic clucks that gobblers can't resist. Shop turkey calls to reach the precise frequency of your game bird. Recreate high and low tones and the perfect raspy sound. Shop box calls, slate calls and mouth calls for natural cutting, hooting and crowing.
Turkey Hunting Knives: The right hunting knife is critical. Ensure the handle of your knife enables a comfortable, secure grip. Stainless steel hunting knives retain their sharp edge, hunt after hunt. Select from bowie knives, gutting knives and skinning knives.
Turkey Hunting Optics: Lock into your target with a red dot scope. Look for a scope that allows for quick, finger-touch field adjustments with a shock-proof and waterproof construction.
Layer up for the unpredictable. Sport hunting jackets, hunting pants and more for men, women and youth hunters alike.
Look for quick-drying, water-resistant fabrics, designed in camo patterns specific to turkey season. Opt for lightweight hunting apparel—it's easier to layer and ensures better mobility in the field. Soft fabrics minimize rustling and sound as you move in for the kill.
Think utility when selecting your hunting clothes. Small pockets let you stash essentials when you're on the move. Rip-stop fabric helps regulate body temperature, and reinforced fabric provides added durability.
