I could really use some tips on where to look for turkeys as this will be my first year. I was told pretty well anywhere there is deer there may be turkeys. Let's hear some tips fellas.

A.W is correct you can hunt Turkeys in the afternoon starting this year. I just took the seminar and they were very clear about that.

We can now hunt turkeys until 7 p.m. in Ontario, unless otherwise stated for a particular WMU.

That's because re-introduction of turkeys in Ontario has been such a success.
