turkey hunter

Seeks wild toms

A turkey hunter is someone who hunts wild turkeys, typically during designated spring or fall seasons.

Turkey hunting requires specific techniques—calling, camouflage, and patience—distinct from other game hunting: He's been a turkey hunter since his father first took him out at age twelve.

The term also appears in hunting product marketing and outdoor recreation contexts.
