I just recently found out that wild turkeys live in New Zealand. If you ever get a chance to hunt turkeys in any of the southern US states I’d encourage you to take it. A lot of people hunt them here and they are as wild as you will find.

Hi Jc, love your hunting videos mate, i am based in auckland, i was wondering if you can share where you go hunting for goats, or any contacts, i am willing to pay or whatever cost if thats the case, please mate..thanks.
@jchuntingАй бұрын
Hey mate, thanks a lot for watching! Don't pay for goats, there's an abundance of them on farmland, that farmers want gone. Just drive around until you see goats on farmland, my advice is around Hunua, go knock on the door with a box of beer, the beer is just a gift so the farmer hears you out, then tell about who you are, and that you'd like to help them out by knocking over a few goats, there's a high chance they'll tell you to go for it, but always respect their right to say no. If by some chance they do say no, try again with the neighbours on either side. Good luck, and happy hunting!

As an old hunter I’ve killed many turkeys with shotgun and .22 rifle, but gave them up in favor of a bow. It’s usually a more difficult method for sure. The better you have camouflaged yourself is most important. Turkeys see colors and can pick out the slightest movement. I also have way better results hunting from the ground. Where I hunt the Rio Grande turkey is the bird of the land. Apparently!they are always looking up for owls and hawks so hunting from a tree stand very rarely works as anything new is seen almost instantly. Even a simple brush blind seems to work very well. A pop up blind left for a few days will work mostly but usually not on the first day or two as they are skittish about it in my experience. I have always used two blade heads on everything and they will get me pass thru hits easily on turkeys. 👍👍

I would love to give that a go, unfortunately they don't seem so responsive to the odd call here, maybe because our turkeys come from a domestic bloodline. Or maybe I've just never hunted them in their peak mating season, due to their diet of crickets during mating season contaminating the meat.
@nicksummerfield5408 Жыл бұрын
@@jchunting in the states we hunt them in the spring and fall. The tactic you guys were doing is what we do in the fall. We get close then bust up the flock by shooting over them, Turkey dog or just running at them. Then give it like 20 minutes or so then setup and use hen yelps , purrs to call them back to you. This tactic plays off of the birds are relocating each member of the flock. Now I’m the spring we just shoot the toms/gobblers and that a whole different thing that is when the mating season is. We use locators ( owls, crows and peacocks) to get the birds to shock gobble then call them in like a lonely hen. That’s when it gets exciting. We also roost the birds by locating where the birds are sleeping that night then get up early and sneak in way before daylight and try to be within shotgun range and as soon as he hits the ground call at him or he may land in your direction and kill them like that.
