Calls, camo, patience and a good knowledge of the area where you intend to hunt. A vest to carry your gear is good. Get a copy of Tom Kelly's book, "A Fork in the Road" which is written for beginning turkey hunters. Be sure to pattern your shotgun to see what shot it likes best. Good luck.

If I was starting over,I would recommend going with a GOOD professional guide a few times and pay attention,sure would make the learning curve a lot less expensive and time consuming!!!

Thanks for all the helpful advice. I am now outfitted and ready to rock. The CZ-USA 712 magnum patterns great. Again, I just want to thank you all. I grew up in the city my whole life with no one to pass any hunting knowledge down to me. I just read as much as I can and hope I'm doing this all right.
