Turkey Hunting Seats For A More Comfortable Hunting Experience

By Minnie Whitley


People just love a good and hearty feast. The first reason is due to the people who share the banquet with you. Meals that are shared with many always seems a lot happier and more delicious than eating alone. The second reason could be the drinks served. Whether it is the special holiday punch or just bottles of booze you have been saving for occasions, a swig of anything that is more satisfying than plain water is a good reason. The third is the food itself. People ways relate feasts with good food, which is why they are more often blockbuster hits among everyone.


Time after time, whenever there is a special event or a holiday, it has always been the tradition of American families to share a turkey dinner. This kind of poultry can be bought in stores or caught wild from a hunting spree full of hunters and their turkey hunting seats. Every family also boasts of a special turkey recipe from grandma and how it beats those of the neighbors.

No one really knows if turkey had been served in the first ever Thanksgiving, though records show that they have gone turkey hunting before the meal. Also, when it was declared a national holiday, the president himself had served the fowl to his guests. Since then, it was raised to being the star of the holiday feast, along with cranberry sauce and pumpkin pie.

This bird is native to the North America. The wild ones roam most thick woodlands but some grow domesticated ones for marketing purposes. The man grown ones are smaller than their cousins from the wild. Male turkeys are called gobblers, the female one are hens. The male is bigger than the female due to their feathers, but the truth of the matter is that the females have more meat. You can easily mark the male ones due to their wattles, those red flaps under their chin. This way you will know which ones to go after when hunting.

A good hunter knows all about the animal he has to hunt. For example, he knows better not to underestimate the turkey. It has a large brain, which makes it smarter than other feathered fowls. They are also very attentive to their surroundings, and will instantly dash away at the slightest sign of movement from bushes.

It has a very huge and very diverse appetite. It can eat almost anything. Ninety percent of its diet consists of animal matter, while the remaining ten comprise the insects it loves to munch on. From everything that it forages on in the woods, this bird is partial to acorns. In fact, wild turkeys are stuffed mostly with these.

A good hunter is well clothed for the occasion. Since the bird you are to hunt is quite vigilant, it is important that you take no chances of being seen by completely blending into the surroundings. Therefore, it is recommended that you use camouflage articles. Hats, suits, gloves, and other clothing come in this print, so it is easy to find one at the local sporting goods store.

You will also need a shotgun with which you can shoot the birds. The choice in weapon varies from one hunter to the other, so you will have to rely on your instincts in choosing the perfect one for you. You may also want a turkey call so that you can produce sounds that will make them run to you.

Since this can be a whole day activity, you may also want a chair in which you can rest your tired bum on. They can be easily folded, lightweight for easy travel, and durable to withstand heavy weight. With a seat to sit on, you can now rest quite easily while waiting for the game.
