What is your favorite terrain to turkey hunt in? Hardwood ridges, pine thickets, big fields, hardwood river bottoms, big mountains, etc.
I like them all, but my favorite is a hardwood river bottom. I love wading the water, crossing sloughs, dealing with the mud and the cottonmouths, etc. Just something different about it.

I guess I'm on the hardwood ridge band wagon. I like to walk ridges and call in the late morning. I also hunt back fields and pipelines that are surrounded by timber. They are turkey hot spots around here.

I've grown up hunting the river bottoms and its where I killed my first bird. Absolutely no other place I would rather hunt because those bottoms are special. With that being said, I do love hardwood ridges. Give those birds 45 degrees on a clear morning and that mountain music is beautiful

I have always gotten my birds in a field set but this year my last bird was in the woods.He came off a slight ridge heading towards a field but it made the hunt so much more different.Never went after them in the woods but next year WILL be different!!!

I love it all, but at the age of 73, I now pretty much prefer the flat lands of Kansas. Back, hips & knees wore out.

Anywhere those jokers will gobble. Honestly nothing I love more than any new ground I don't know and a hot bird or 5.
