If you are not comfortable or if you are not camouflaged properly, your chances of success go down dramatically.<\/p><p>First and foremost, you need to be camouflaged. You can buy special turkey hunting clothes that are made to look like leaves and branches, or you can simply wear dark clothing that will blend in with the darkness of the woods. Either way, it is important that you do not stand out in the open like a sore thumb.<\/p><p>Second, you need to be comfortable. You will be sitting in a turkey blind for hours at a time, so make sure you are wearing comfortable clothes that will not restrict your movement. Loose-fitting clothes made of breathable fabrics are ideal.<\/p><p>Finally, you need to be prepared for the elements. Even if the weather is mild when you start hunting, it can quickly turn cold or wet. Be sure to dress in layers so that you can add or remove clothing as needed. And always bring along a hat and gloves just in case.<\/p><p>By following these tips, you can make sure you are wearing the right clothes for a successful turkey hunt.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4547453 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"4547453\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Tips For Choosing Your Clothing<\/h3>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5f99df1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"5f99df1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>As a turkey hunter, you know that the best time to hunt is early morning or late evening when the turkeys are feeding. But did you know that what you wear plays a big role in your success? Choosing the right turkey hunting clothes can mean the difference between spooking turkeys and getting a clean shot.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some tips to help you choose the best clothes for turkey hunting.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Wear muted colors.<\/strong>\u00a0Both your base layer and outer layer should be in colors that will blend in with your surroundings. Turkey&#8217;s eyes are very keen, so you want to avoid wearing anything that will stand out. Good choices for colors include brown, green, tan, and black.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Avoid shiny fabrics.<\/strong>\u00a0Again, you want to avoid anything that will catch a turkey&#8217;s eye. So steer clear of anything shiny or reflective, like metallic fabric or white clothing.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Dress in layers.<\/strong>\u00a0The temperature can vary widely during a turkey hunt, so it&#8217;s important to dress in layers that you can easily add or remove as needed. A good base layer should be made of wool or synthetic fabric to wick away moisture and keep you warm even when wet. An outer layer of waterproof or water-resistant fabric will protect you from the elements and help you stay silent as you move through the woods.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Wear comfortable shoes.<\/strong>\u00a0You&#8217;ll be doing a lot of walking (and maybe even some crawling) during a turkey hunt, so make sure your shoes are comfortable and up for the challenge. Look for shoes with good traction that will help you keep your footing in slippery conditions. And if you&#8217;re planning on doing any still-hunting (stalking turkeys without calling), make sure your shoes won&#8217;t make too much noise as they rub against leaves and twigs.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-71d65f3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"71d65f3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Hunting Boots<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0e30b57 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"0e30b57\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>You need (and I mean need) to do yourself a favor and get yourself a great pair of turkey hunting boots.

One of the most important things to remember when turkey hunting is to wear the right clothes. Wearing the wrong clothes can lead to serious injuries or even death.<\/p><p>There are a few benefits to wearing the right clothing when turkey hunting.<\/p><p>First, it will help to keep you safe from the elements. Turkey hunting takes place in all kinds of weather, and it is important to be prepared for anything. Wearing the right clothing will help you stay warm in cold weather and cool in hot weather. It will also help you stay dry in wet weather.<\/p><p>Second, wearing the right clothing will help you stay hidden from your prey. Turkey hunting is all about remaining undetected until it is time to strike. If you are wearing bright colors or making too much noise, you are likely to scare off your prey before you have a chance to shoot. Wearing camouflage clothing and using camouflage netting can help you stay hidden and increase your chances of success.<\/p><p>Finally, wearing the right clothing can help you avoid injuries while turkey hunting. Sharp spurs and claws, along with razor-sharp beaks, are all hazards that come with turkey hunting. Wearing thick gloves and long sleeves can help protect your skin from these hazards. In addition, wearing sturdy boots will help protect your feet and ankles from being stepped on by a large bird.<\/p><p>Remember, safety should always be your top priority when turkey hunting. Wearing the right clothing is one of the best ways to stay safe while enjoying this popular outdoor activity.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2e9f00b elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"2e9f00b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Summary - Turkey Hunting Clothing<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-417fcb2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"417fcb2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>As you can see, there\u2019s a lot to consider when it comes to turkey hunting clothing.
