Turkey Hunting Boots

As turkey season is only a few weeks away, now is the time to start planning for opening day. Most turkey hunters spend hundreds on turkey shotguns, calls, and camo; but don't really think about their boots.

Three things come to mind when turkey hunting:

Major league camo - Turkey's have amazing eyesight and are one of the few hunted game that is not color blind. That being said, good camo is an absolute must.
Snakes - Since Turkey season is in the spring, snakes are a possibility, especially in the warmer states.
Heat - Spring can be downright hot in some parts of the U.S.

While camo boots aren't really needed, I would certainly think the snake protection is worthwhile. My biggest issue with turkey hunting use to be the fact that I wore my winter hunting boots so my feet were so hot they almost caught on fire. I finally bought a pair of boots that were specifically designed for warm weather turkey hunting. They had very light insulation so they were pretty comfortable.
