Techniques and Equipment: Depending on local rules and regulations, the wild turkey is hunted either in the spring or fall. Spring hunts target gobblers (male turkeys) and fall hunts usually target either sex. Spring hunting coincides with the wild turkey mating season, where gobblers can be called into gun range with calls that mimic the sounds of a hen. The shotgun is a popular weapon for hunting wild turkey.

Shotgun gauges used in turkey hunting include 10, 12, 16, and 20 gauge. #4, #5, and #6 lead shot is often used in 2 3/4", 3", or 3 1/2" shot-shells. The Bow is starting to become popular among hunters. Common hunting broad-heads are used for body shots while "guillotine" style broad-heads are intended to remove the head with the shot. Some states allow small caliber rifles to be used.

Calls used in turkey hunting fall into two categories: (1) Air and (2) Friction activated. Air calls include diaphragms, wingbone calls, Turpin yelpers, trumpet calls and snuff tube calls. Friction calls include box calls, pot and peg calls, scratch boxes, and push pin calls. These turkey calls are relatively easy to use and even a beginner can use them to call in a prize winning turkey. Common locator calls include Owl hooters, Crow calls, Hawk calls, and anything that will produce a loud noise.
