what would you say the percentage is over woods shots compared to field shots,,,
or should i rephrase that where are most of your shots taken!!!!
At the edge of fields in the spring, in the fall its all timber.
I hunt a lot of the N/F in Va. and 99% of my shots are in the woods.
100%, all 6, have been shot in a field. The first was in a small log landing. My son's was also in a field. I hunt woods and fields, so just happened that way.
60% hardwoods
40% fields
I prefer to kill em in the woods but Ill kill em wherever they want to die.

Probably half and half for me.
90+% in the fields. Heck, in most of the places I hunt, if a bird in the "woods" walks 20 yards in any direction, he's right back in a field. :D
90% in the woods ! I prefer the woods over fields .

x2 all day everyday. I hate field Turkeys LOL
Mostly I hunt fields but I love to take them in the woods when I get a chance fields are just where I have to hunt
Very open terrain here in western OK, so I'd say 99% field/pasture......one or two came in the woods (if you can call it that)
100% woods
My kills 100% woods
Kills I have witnessed 75% woods
Even where there are fields I still kill them more often in the surrounding woods. 80% woods 20% field
Woods and roads or skid trails for me.
Mostly fields for me also
from my hunting experience, i have never seen a bird in a field except from when i am driving home, killed 5 in the woods,,,
100% woods

Same here... something about a gobbler with hens out in a field and not moving a inch gets to me. So I try to stay in the woods where i cant see as far.
about 50/50 I would guess. I rather have them in the woods or small fields.
I only have 1 field bird. The others are woods birds. My future hunts will probably all be big woods birds too. So 12% fields and 88% woods for me. ;D

Thats me. I don't have the patients to wait on a turkey I can see. I will bump him everytime trying to put the Big Indian sneak on him
I've shot at least 10 on the edges of fields. Most were called "out" of the woods.
I can remember two in particular that I shot in the woods. One was a triple bearded bird (my best ever) and one in the woods last spring.
bought 50/50 for me but man i hate a field bird! i would pick woods any day of the week if i had a choice but sometimes you gotta take what you can get lol
I seriously hate a field bird though.
Probably 50/50...
70/30 woods to fields for me.

Probably 80/20 split in favor of woods.
