Hunting Osceola Turkeys with John O’Dell

John O’Dell of Texas says he hardly can remember a day when he hasn’t been a Mossy Oak Pro. To kick off turkey season, O’Dell goes to south Florida to hunt the Osceola gobblers. “Florida has a youth hunt for Osceolas in late February,” O’Dell says. “Then, the season opens the first week of March.” The Osceola is usually the most difficult turkey for hunters trying to get a Grand Slam.

Learning More Public Land Turkey Hunting Tips

I’m often asked, “What do you do after opening morning or any time during turkey season when another turkey hunter sees your truck and realizes where you’re hunting?” I’m not really concerned if another hunter spots my truck. Most turkey hunters – probably 90% - when they see another turkey hunter parked at a certain spot on public lands, will go to another place and hunt.

Hunting the 1,000 Yard Toms

There’s a place in Maryland I hunt that I call the Rock Ledge. The front of the mountain has a straight rock ledge drop-off. A group of turkeys roost on that Rock Ledge. When they fly from the roost, they glide for about 1,000 yards and land in an agricultural field. When I first discovered those turkeys, I set up about 100 yards away from them and started calling.

Finding Somewhere to Hunt on 2017’s Opening Day

I’d identified a place last year, made a note of it and marked the spot where I saw a turkey run across the road on one of my scouting trips before opening day. I’d never heard a turkey gobble in this place, never had seen one there and never had spotted a vehicle parked in this location. But I watched a turkey cross the road there, and I was very amazed. Previously I’d never seen

Picking a Place for an Opening Morning Public Land Hunt

I ride the road listening for turkeys and looking for other people listening for turkeys. If I go by a spot two or three consecutive mornings where I’ve heard a turkey gobble and don’t see or hear anyone else’s vehicle parked there, then I know this is a good place to start my early-morning, public-land turkey hunt.

BioLogic’s Non-typical Clover Is Very Effective

Mossy Oak BioLogic has one wildlife planting that attracts turkeys as well as deer, and it’s relatively new for BioLogic – Non-Typical Clover. This new blend of clover has been found suitable for food plot plantings from New York to Georgia and from east Texas north. Non-Typical Clover is late to flower, so you'll get 6-8 more weeks of good, quality deer and turkey forage before the clover begins to flower.

One of the big advantages of having quality food plots is to have and to hold deer and turkeys on your property.
