Ive hunted turkeys my whole life. never killed on with a bow though, i live and hunt in ashe county, which is just up the hill from you i assume.
Turkeys are straight up retarded to groundblinds. you can literally put it out in the middle of a wide open field. The best way ive heard of, is roost one, or have some where you know they will be at some point during the day, set up some decoyse and wait. they are very curious creatures. There is a craze for strutting decoys as of right now, i have one, and i must say that they work both ways, some birds get mad and charge you, and then you have less dominent birds that shy away from them.
Probly the most effective way is what me and my dad call "rambo" ing toms. Wait till they go over a hill, and run to the lip of the hill get ready, and pop up slowly...they will always throw there head up and look a second before they run, Which if you quick is all you need.
Overall in my experience i would say that turkeys can be the smartest thing youve ever hunted and on the same day can be the stupidest thing youve ever hunteed.
My best advise (with a bow) would be a blind.(keep in mind i havent killed one with a bow...yet.
) But if you decide to stoop to a boomstick, ramboing is most effective.
On a side note, i have plenty of tijme to hunt, and if you have a place to go down your way, i would be mor e than happy to guide andcall for you. I love every minute of it. PM me if your intersted, God Bless!!!
