[QUOTE="Rod Snell, post: 1268303, member: 796"] No harder to hunt in the fall, but they do require different tactics. The toms are mostly going to be in groups, and doing spring calling makes them think you're confused. The key is learning their specific habits so you know just about where they will be any time of day. Pick a time when they're not sitting around full of food with nothing better to do than spot you. I like a .22 mag rifle and an ambush spot near food. The rifle saves the frustration of trying to shoot just one out of a cluster; a shot in the neck drops them like a rock. Wear full face camo, of course. I just camo up and lie in natural or improvised cover. Last fall was almost funny. I had been watcing them for weeks, and could just about set my watch by their movements. I went to a good ambush spot where they had to walk a path through weeds to get to the wheat; not 5 minutes later they paraded by, and I shot "tail end Charlie." [/QUOTE]
