Alberta Turkey Hunting

[GOBBLER FANATIC]

Have you been drawn for turkey this spring and need help?
I know of some good properties and have hunted these magnificent "King of Gamebirds" for 18 years and love to help out first time hunters. Drop me a post if you are looking for some help to try and call in one of these wary birds.

I'm at priority 7 for Meriams. I knew that I'd be working this spring, and wouldn't have a chance to get out. I agree with you that turkeys are gorgeous, delicious too.
The turkeys are going to be my first "Grand Slam" if you will. I've looked into a number of outfitters in the US and Mexico and am saving up to get all of the subspecies in one year. My plan is to import the meat from each bird, breast meat at the very least. I'd like to put on a little turkey dinner with every variety of turkey on the table. Prepared in similar ways which will allow for the actual flavor of the bird to come through.
I've spoken to a number of turkey hunters in Alberta. The consensus is that a turkey hunt consists of a week of scouting and of ten minutes of hunting...
Do you load ammo for your turkey hunts. If not, what's your preferred brand? What calls do you use?
Thank you beforehand!

I have a tag I will start scouting in march as they like to hang around feed lots during the winter months
