There is a huge variety of hunting equipment available these days, due to the growing popularity of turkey hunting and ever-increasing numbers of turkey hunters. Turkey hunting was a much simpler activity in the past. The hunter, dressed in his usual garb and hat, places his favorite slate call, box call, wing bone or scratch box into his jacket on the way out of the house. He picks up his double-barreled shotgun and a few shells in his pocket before walking out the door.
This is him, the turkey hunter - all prepared to fight with a wary old Tom. However, what other gears will he have with him? When it comes to hunting equipment having lots of choices and options is a very good thing.
Today's current turkey hunter has more choices than he ever had. Nevertheless, at times, it becomes overpowering to a beginner. Prior to going to hunting, you have to determine first what you are going to use to cart all of your equipment. This will also help influence the type and amount of gear you take with you into the woods. The three basic choices for packing turkey hunting gear are turkey Vest, Back pack, and fanny pack.
These vests come in many different modes, including the full vest or jacket style. Some favor vests because of the many separate pockets and the game bag on the back that lets you carry decoys easily plus the gobbler if you are victorious that day. A vest is also not bad to organize your basic turkey gear with one hunting garb.
Backpacks permit you to carry much more equipment than the vests. They also can be removed and even used as the backrest if need or want to. The cheapest option is the fanny packs. They are a favorite to many hunters since you can carry some gear, but you are not overburdened as much as with a backpack or vest. They also provide a quick entree to everything inside.
Many hunters will carry along a laser range finder and this is perfect, especially for those hunting with a bow. Your laser range finder will provide comfort and knowledge on how far your potential shot may be for that big old Tom.
Do you need to carry that lots of calls with you? No, absolutely not, but if you want to, there are now vests available that allow you to carry them and much more.
Here are some introductory needs and elective gears you might consider: Basic needs include shot gun, shotgun shells, full camo outfit including cap, and favorite calls. Turkey tag pencil or pen to sign tag. Gloves, head net or face mask. Bug spray for mosquitoes and ticks. Water and drinks, compass, toilet paper and knife are some of the few things that are usually brought.
Elective gears include decoys, turkey tote, extra set of gloves and facemask, extra strikers for slate calls, and other local calls like an owl, gobble tube, hawk, goose, coyote, peacock and woodpecker. Leather type multi-purpose tools, flashlight, matches, cell phone, walkie talkie, 2-way radio, GPS, topo map and aerial photos for hunting area. Rain gear, binoculars, camera, camcorder, tripod, laser range finder, ratcheting runners, folding saw, ground blind or square piece of camo cloth, Snacks/food, moistened hand wipes, seat or pad and snake bite kit.
Having all these equipment will certainly not guarantee that you would become the best turkey hunter in the world, but they can help further your chances of having a turkey dinner when you go home for the day. Delight in your Turkey Hunting outdoor experience.
