On my very first turkey hunt about 13 years ago a flock of 16 hens came within 10 - 15 feet of me and I was trembling like a fawn because the longbeard hung back at about 50 yards. My knee was resting against a 1" dia. sapling and it was quivering and shaking because of my knee. Those hens kept eyeballing me and that quivering sapling but never busted me. What an experience!! I've been 2 feet from deer and didn't shake like that.

Getting close to animals
It may be a hoax, but I am going to get a Hecs suit before next season. I believe there may be something to it. Heard on NPR last night that bumble bees can feel electrical impulses from plants through the fine hairs on their bodies. With as much hair as is on a turkey or deer, there may be something to it.
Anyone tried a Hecs suit? |

It is a carbon-fiber suit that blocks your electromagnetic field so animals cannot detect you. It is supposed to allow you to get really close to game. It claims birds can even see the field. Ever had an animal come in and just know something was wrong and then haul butt? It may not have been the smell or them seeing something, but just sensing that something was there. http://www.hecsllc.com/ |

Well Dean, did you kill the gobbler?
Jerry thanks for the heads up on the hecs suit. Let us know what you find out. Interesting video posted in that link you shared. That stuff is very reasonably priced. |
