We have a young State Trooper here that just put together a 22.250 rig to hunt them with.

I´ve read from the interweb that some hunters find the Remington Slugster high velocity slugs workin well in smooth bore shotguns.

Use a partner, Calling them in is easy if they haven't been hunted before.

A moving decoy helps just put it where it will draw attention away from you and in a shooting lane.

Make your own decoy for a few bucks instead of buying one.

A 2 person back to back one with a shotgun the other with a rilfe works. Once you take one wait. There is often a second or third coming right behind it.

MB gave some good advise. If you have the caller and decoy right next to you, the 'yotes zero in and run right at you. If you move, they'll spot you. At least set the decoy (could be something as simple as a feather on a string tied to a stick) a ways away from you to draw their attention away.

You may try baiting too. We've done that with some success.

This time of year it's tough to get them to come out.
