Anyone have success with food plots that are designed to attract turkey?

Why not just spread cracked corn on the ground. Easier than doing a food plot....and you get the same result: easy kill turieys!!!!

Its illegal to bait turkeys.

I know that chufas are big down south, I don't know if they'll grow in a colder climate. Turkeys will mostly eat whatever deer eat, the standard foot plot mixes should work fine.

clover!

buckwheat planted in july, and oats planted in july so that the heads go to seed in october. nothing draws better for fall birds Oats planted with clover is a good dual purpose plot for spring and fall. Spring a good clover plot or chop down a cornfield that was left standing thru winter.(its not bating choping/brushhogging down an old cornfield but its as close as you can get). if there is any corn left in it. tried sorgum but they don't seem to know what it is untill planted for a year or two, chufa will grow here but again they don't know what it is so you need to disk it to bring it to the surface so they will peck at it for a year or two till they realize they like it..
