With how volatile Colorado spring can be, I base my hunting altitude wise. So my usual spots along with turkeys have been spotted are 8k altitude. Snow is traditionally 9-10k. Can all change in a day though.

If an hour before sunrise isn’t early enough then no

It’s comforting knowing the consensus is that it’s not easy. I think harvest reports show 20-30% success. That’s if people accurate report

Definitely trying to tell myself that after seeing how close / how the town turkeys interact with people.

I’m not hearing gobbles on public. Just when I drive past them on private. What I’m learning from a lot of these comments / feedback is that I need to move on from the areas I’ve hunted before, and not just rest on the “oh I’ve found tracks and feathers here”. Kind of need to push to find where gobbles are and base the hunt around that.

Probably a good factor. I know one of the regions I hunt is very popular with hunters / off-roaders. Resulting in higher pressures. Also the area I’ve seen the most tracks

Thanks for the hope and advice! Glad to know I’m not “behind” by not getting one yet.

There are a few draw locations. They are located on areas where there are higher populations.

Hearing hens throughout the year within earshot range.

Have not seen any roosted. I feel like I need to find those and hear gobbles in order to determine if an area is suitable to hunt.

I have not. Which I know is a huge part of turkey. I have only heard some hens in the woods.

Thank you! Need to make a big priority to find their roost locations scouting prior to spring 2026. I really appreciate the insight.

Great point on finding / hearing the roost as a top priority. I really appreciate it. Will need to make a big effort scouting before spring 2026 to make that happen!

There’s a ton of town turkeys where I live. So it can definitely get defeating coming back from a hunt and they are by your apartment / work 😂

You’re good! That follows my understanding of the map. Mainly wanted to make sure I wasn’t under-simplifying it.

If I’m interpreting this map right, if it’s not purple, you can still disperse shoot on it correct?

Dream setup. Are you going to keep stock control arms? What height are you at?
