Knowing where to set up your turkey blind is just as crucial as any other part of turkey hunting. With the help of Blain&#8217;s Farm &amp; Fleet, you can find the best place to set up your turkey blind.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"find-the-right-turkey-blind\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Find the Right Turkey Blind<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>The first step is to find the right type of <a href=\"\/hunting-blinds-and-tree-stands\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">hunting blind<\/a>. For turkey and deer hunting, a pop up blind or a box blind works best. A pop up blind can be as easy as a single camouflage screen. A box blind is a great option if you&#8217;re hunting with another person or two. They have plenty of room to move around and store any of your hunting gear. Read through our <a href=\"\/blog\/hunting-blinds\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">hunting blinds blog post<\/a> for more tips on choosing the right blind.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"scout-your-location\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Scout Your Location<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s important to scout your location when you&#8217;re setting up a turkey blind. While your blind might blend in nicely, you also need to be near where the turkeys roost and feed. This is especially important if you plan on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.farmandfleet.com\/blog\/turkey-decoys-types-and-setups\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">setting up decoys<\/a>. You don&#8217;t want to set up your turkey blind deep in the woods where the live turkeys won&#8217;t see the decoys or hear the <a href=\"\/game-calls\/?animal_type=Turkey\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">turkey calls<\/a>. Before the hunting season begins, start tracking the turkeys. It&#8217;s a good idea to use a notebook or GPS to track the area.<\/p>\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"roosting-spots\">Roosting Spots<\/h4>\n\n\n<p>Part of scouting is also knowing the behaviors of the turkey you&#8217;re hunting. Look for areas where the turkeys roost at the beginning of the day. Listen and watch for the turkeys to fly down from the trees&#8211;they&#8217;re quite loud&#8211;and observe where they roost. From there, they will most likely venture to their feeding area.<\/p>\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"feeding-spots\">Feeding Spots<\/h4>\n\n\n<p>The feeding area is a great spot for turkey hunting. Turkeys typically feed in open areas like fields or pastures. Set up your blind on the edge of the field, so it&#8217;s still concealed by surrounding woods and foliage. You need the blind to be hidden, but also enough open area to set up decoys and have a clear shooting range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At Blain&#8217;s Farm &amp; Fleet, we understand that having the right hunting gear can make all the difference.
