If you plan on hunting whitetail deer in a food plot or a large field it is recommended to do it during the late hours of the day.

If you are a beginning or intermediate turkey hunter, you might have found out that it’s more difficult than it seems. The turkey out in the wild, even with it’s name, is a difficult bird for someone to stalk and hunt. The turkey has an unexpected intelligence level and keen vision and it’s survival skills should not be underestimated. It can take years for a hunter to advance the qualifications it takes to close in on and sneak up on a turkey. However, with a superior kind of camouflage, you can greatly increase your odds in turkey hunting and have the edge. This allows the hunter to close in enough to take a shot by lowering the visibility of the turkeys.

For the person on the field, the most efficient form of camouflage out there is the ghillie suit, which was developed over one hundred and fifty years ago in the woodlands of Scotland. It is a suit you can place over your regular clothes to significantly transform your form and significantly decrease your visibility to game in the wild. Pieces of fabric like jute or burlap hang down all over the suit, making it very difficult for animals to see you. This makes a human wearer meld in to their environment by breaking up the pattern and human frame. If a hunter is being really quiet, the ghillie camo can be so efficient that it’s possible for unsuspecting game to wonder right up to them.

The ghillie suit assists turkey hunters by breaking up human patterns and bewildering the turkey’s acute sense of sight. To prevent an injured turkey from scurrying off in the woods a hunter must get in a range to get a quick kill shot to achieve success. A person stalking the turkeys can cut this distance between themselves and a rafter of turkeys by walking patiently and keeping low to the ground.
