What I saw a lot the rifle hunters would sit in chairs out on the grass prairies with a blind staked out around them. Most often they would never leave the blind to chase gobbling Turkey, would just sit in the blinds and try n wait them out. This was an advantage for me as I was always shotgun hunting and chasing birds. I killed several amongst the rifle guys.
Some the South Florida guys I know who started hunting them in the 70s were taught to roost Turkey in the evening then sneak in the next morning to shoot them off the roost with rifles. That was the traditional way to kill Turkey down there; They never heard of calling turkeys till years later.
