Resources for Learning Basics of Turkey Hunting

[7IsAHolyNumber]

Are there any good youtube channels or other resources that cover the ground up basics of turkey hunting for the beginner that ya’ll are aware of or use?

I’ve been hunting deer for quite some time but my son and I want to try our hand at the spring gobbler season in PA this year.

Aside from seeing quite a few and even having some drop down on me in the darkness while deer hunting to know what they at least look like (lol) I am very much starting from scratch.

Any help in directing me to resources or even dropping a few of your basic techniques to get me started would be very much appreciated.

I don't know of any instruction specific channels, but the hunting public guys probably do the best job of explaining what's going on and use an OnX map to illustrate.

The Pinoti (sp?) Project also has great turkey videos.

Couple turkey specific forums, old gobbler and gobbler nation.

As mentioned on youtube THP, Pinhoti and also Shane Simpson are great resources.

Nothing beats boots on the ground and being familiar with the area.

Follow Michael Chamberlain, turkey biologist, on fb.

Good stuff and will check it all out. Really helpful starting point.

I’m familiar with hunting public guys as I always loved watching their incredible bow hunting skills. Never realized they had turkey vids.

Thank you guys!

Just remember, they are the dumbest-smart bird ever.

I enjoy Samong Outdoors on youtube for big game and turkey. He has a nice style.
