Okay, the next tag starts in 2 days.  Here is the deal.  I have 2 toms (Bert and Ernie) that come into a field when they roost on this ridge.  If they are there, they hit the field right at fly down.  If they are not there, they are on land I can not hunt on.  I feel I have a good shot at getting a crack at one of them or I nothing in this situation.  Here is the issue, I would have to be in the truck by 7 am heading for work from this spot.  So I would only hunt for 1 hour.  My thought it this, if they are there in the morning, then they are there the night before.  With that in mind, I could hunt after work and hunt longer. (4:30 until 8 pm)  So would you go for the am or pm hunt?  I know most will say hunt both but that is not possible in this situation due to work and the drive.

An hour doesn't leave much time for field turkeys. I'd take that evening hunt, move into the roost area a couple hours before sundown and do some calling. They may come in quiet, so keep alert. Good luck and post pics if you get one!
