I've looked at pics online, and I can't tell the difference in type of turkey. I read on a search here that:
Now that's fine if I have two different turkeys side by side, strutting around for me to compare. But if there is only one... how do you tell?
I've never shot a turkey, but would like to try this coming spring season - Mar. 19 - May 1, 2016. I'm in Medina county, and the regulations only have it listed as "Rio Grande - South Zone". I didn't want to assume that meant that we only have Rio Grande turkeys in Medina county, so I wanted to be 100% sure.
I'd hate to have my very first turkey confiscated and face a fine for not knowing, so I'm doing my research now.
Any advice on decoys, setups, etc... would be appreciated, as I have nobody to show me how to do this. I'm learning by reading.
All the best,
Glenn
The major difference on the Rios is the light tips on the tail/ fan feathers. The Easterns have darker tips.
