Product Description
Ray Eye is one of the most renowned turkey hunters in America. With more than thirty years' experience as a professional hunting guide, he has taken part in every aspect of the sport, including speaking across the country about hunter safety, conservation, and turkey-hunting techniques. In PRACTICAL TURKEY HUNTING STRATEGIES he makes his expertise available to turkey hunters everywhere. Whether you hunt in spring or fall, with a gun or with bow and arrow, alone or with a partner, you will find a wealth of practical information in this invaluable book.
With so many turkey-calling titles to his credit--including two National Championships and the World Natural Voice Championship--it is fitting that Ray includes a thorough discussion of calling techniques, from beginning to highly advanced. But he emphasizes that calling is only one of the many crucial aspects of turkey hunting: Also vital to a successful hunt are locating the turkeys, finding a strategic calling position, choosing proper equipment, and ensuring your own safety and that of other hunters.
Combining the knowledge of a living legend with the humor and excitement of Ray's own turkey-hunting tales, PRACTICAL TURKEY HUNTING STRATEGIES is a treasure trove for anyone who wants to learn more about the fascinating--even addicting--sport of turkey hunting.

 Good info for the novice hunter. January 20, 2008
I have read a couple of books on turkey hunting to get ready for the season this Spring. My brother-in-law, an experienced hunter, has invited me to hunt with him in the Georgia countryside. Author Ray Eye gave me lots of tips on the do's and don't's of turkey hunting, from what kind of equipment to take on a hunt to making the right turkey calls. Maybe I won't make as many dumb mistakes after reading this book.
My husband wouldn't shut up while reading this book!! December 30, 2007

He laughed and debated (sometimes out loud) with the book the whole time he was reading it. He's a long-time turkey hunter, and picked it up after meeting the author. My husband remarked how well the book was written in a manner to speak to someone with any level of turkey hunting knowledge. It's on loan to his buddy, and he likes it too, apparently.
(he told me five stars.)

When I ordered this book I was not expecting much. I've been hunting turkeys for 25 years and now spend in excess of 100 days a year scouting and hunting.
I know a lot about turkeys but that only amounts to 1 percent of what I would like to know. Most of what I know has been learned by trial and error and lots of frustrating mistakes. I ordered the book hoping I could learn a little something from someone with much more experience than I have. After all, a few hours spent reading beats days of fruitless hard work and and lots of frustration in the woods.
In a nutshell, I learned a lot from this book. The author is far ahead of me in the learning and knowledge curve.I hunt only on public ground in several western states and hunting can be tough.The author confirms what I know and suspected about turkeys and greatly increased my knowledge. The tactics and strategies he describes will make my future hunts more enjoyable and successful. I highly recommend this book to all hunters. Good Luck.
How do you know when a hunter is lying? February 9, 2004
8 out of 8 found this review helpful
Unfortunately the likely answer is 'when his lips are moving'. This old saying mostly applies when there is disagreement in a 'how to' conversation. Ray Eye did not write this book telling how you must hunt to be successful as a turkey hunter, but tells his story of how he does it. I knew after reading what it meant to him to hunt with and the memories of hunting with his grandfather that I found a treasure. Great book, entertaining, and an easy read. A must for old or new gobbler hunters.

It covers all the essentials to becoming a good turkey hunter; filled with tips,techniques, and strategies you need before venturing into the woods. You'll also enjoy his personal stories and it's filled with photos. Recommend!
