Map Layers for Turkey Hunting
Use case examples to help you get the most out of your Map Layers.
Find turkey habitat.
If you can find edges of hardwoods and pines with water nearby, chances are there will be a gobbler in the area.
Use the Coniferous vs. Deciduous Tree Map Layer to find those transition zones. Also, turn on the Timber Cuts Map Layer to find thinned or clearcut timber lands, which offer fringe habitat for strutting birds.
Turning Map Layers on and off.
Map Layers, found under Hunt Map Layers in the lower left corner, are organized into categories. For example, the tree-related layers are under Trees, Crops, and Soil, while state-specific layers like turkey zones are found under that particular state.
Tap the toggle next to a Map Layer’s name to turn that layer on (green) or off (grey).

Remain in the correct zone.
Many states divide hunting areas into specific turkey management units or zones.
Under Hunt Map Layers, toggle on the appropriate state and then find the layer set related to that state’s hunting units (also called GMUs, zones, etc., depending on the state).
Tap View Options to see if there’s a turkey-specific Map Layer to turn on to help you navigate boundaries with ease.
