I'm 16 for 16. All public land. Virginia and Kentucky took me the longest to find and kill a bird (3 days). Alabama was the fastest (drove 16 hours, got out of the truck, struck one and 5 minutes later he was dead).

Nowadays, any place thats got a lot of birds is gonna have a lot of hunters and a lotta busted hunts. Spots that were "easy" 7+ years ago are overrun with hunters now. In recent years I've found myself looking for "harder" to hunt spots (fewer birds, rugged terrain, longer walks in, etc.) simply because it keeps the crowds away, regardless of the state im in. It's harder to find/access turkeys, but when I do, I can usually play the game uninterupted.

8 states for me so far
Easiest would be SD. Love hunting those Merriams!
Hardest for me would be Iowa, didn't manage to close the deal in my one and only hunt there.

Circumstances really do have a lot of effect on the hunt AND circumstances can be endless!

So far VA as the easiest, Private ground, repeatedly,same piece of ground over 15 years or so.

Hardest, WV by far. I sware a turkey busted me when I blinked one time! 

States, ain't sure, not many really, 12 I believe. Have harvested a turkey every where I went but did take two trips to FL for my first. All DIY hunts, mostly public ground out of state, never a guide. 

Hope to add three more states this spring just for a different view.

Quote from: KeeKee on January 24, 2026, 07:22:05 PMGonna get some nice hip waders because I went over my boots more hunts than not last year 🤣.
Forgot where I saw it, but someone is making Nylon waders for temp use, like crossing creeks and such.  Light, easy to fold and carry, just slip em on over your boots and cross.  Not made for much walking, but could be the ticket.
two heavy duty construction trash bag could do the trick also... but you gotta be polite 🤣
