So is it safe to "roost birds" in the evenings before a morning hunt like you see on TV, or would that be considered another dumb move by the elite public hunters? Just curious. I don't turkey hunt, and stuff like this makes me not really want to start. It's just like duck hunting. No room for error as you learn your way through things if doing so on public land. Everyone will tell you what an idiot you are but don't really want to offer any useful advice.
BossBowman's reply is my case in point. I DON'T know anything about turkey hunting, but Lord help me if I make a mistake in learning. Matter of fact, your reply makes me feel like I'm not welcomed to learn. My luck, if I take your advice and try to find droppings or tracks, I'll get bashed for walking all over the woods and educating or pushing the birds to new roosting areas by trying to find droppings or tracks.
My bottom line unsolicited opinion? If you have such big problem with the "idiots", get a lease. Otherwise, the "idiots" are part of the equation on public land. If they are being "idiots" in a particular compartment, go to a different one. It's not like there's a shortage of compartments up there.
At least my first post managed to coax a few helpful tips out of the group.
