Interested in taking up turkey hunting for the first time. Have a place in Seguin that I know has birds, but they seem incredibly dumb and don't seem to have a fear of humans. Have rolled up on some plenty of times on a 4-wheeler and sat there and looked at each other for a few minutes before moving on.
Is this normal behavior, or have these been desensitized to humans and wouldn't be much sport to hunt? I assume the challenge increases by trying to call one into range for a shot.

Headed to DeWitt County Thursday late afternoon. Friday started off very slow, then the heat and high winds came making it even tougher but managed to get two to shock gobble at 3pm. After closing the gap 100 yards and calling for a half hour, two jakes came storming in and I decided to take one at 14 yards in case the rest of the weekend proved to be just as slow.
Got my first bird cleaned and was back in the woods by 5pm and put the full strut jake out hoping to challenge an older bird. Called to this 2 year old for about 45 mins and then he hit then sendero 150 yards out at full strut and didn't waste any time closing the gap. Was my first two bird day and a ton of fun!
Slept in Saturday and then was gonna just call for my buddy so he could try for his first with the bow. Half hour into our first set and these three youngin's came easing in. Watching these young guys at 10 yards for the next ten minutes was the highlight of my trip. Such beautiful creatures, pictures don't do them justice.
ETA: sorry the pics suck so bad. They are screenshots from video.
