Its not the size of the animal you hunt that matters. Its how you hunt the animal.

Last year...I made my own Ghille poncho. It worked very well for both deer and turkey. On one occasion I stood up from my chair to take a leak, I pulled up the poncho and began my business, I heard a sound and turned my head and had a Turkey about 8 yds from me. Never saw me until I turned my head.

I say ghillie poncho. Make my last winter used it this season and had deer as close as 5 yards. I was able to craw and stalk up on 4 turkeys. Got within 18 yards before I got busted as I drew.
