    Default Interesting Results from the "Avid Turkey Hunter Survey"

    A few things were interesting to me in the survey. When looking at the "controversial topics" like decoys, blinds, sub gauged guns, TSS, etc. there were a few things that caught my eye.

    60% of hunters hunt strictly private land, and only 6% strictly public.

    Only 40% of turkey hunters never use a ground blind.

    8% never use a hen decoy, 25% never a jake or half strut gobbler, and 55% never use a strutter.

    22% of hunters fan/reap turkeys.

    89% of hunters still use a 12GA with 60% of those hunters shooting lead. Also over half of the hunters use just a straight bead.


    So what we can gather from the data is this, turkey hunters use blinds, hen and jake decoys with the occasional strutter. They fan one if they have to, and they shoot them with lead out of a 12 gauge with a straight bead. All while on Private land.

    All future turkey arguments have now been solved.

    Thank you
