Title: Hunting Plans
Post by: 3chunter on February 07, 2011, 11:17:43 PM
Lets get it started again I guess.  What states are you hunting in this year and what are the season dates?

I'm starting off in MS on Mar 12 or so.  Then I will hunt Louisiana opening weekend.  Possibly going to Kansas, and may goto Texas, if I can find a spot.  Also have a possible hunt in West Alabama... that is if my co-worker doesn't Bogart his spot again.

Youth weekend is March 12th-13th, then the regular season starts March 15th, ends April 30th, plan on hunting everyday of the season. Then maybe a trip to Tennessee in May.

Who knows, I might get lucky this year and kill a turkey for the team.

Honker, what part of West Bama do you plan on hunting? We do most of our turkey killing in that area.

SC season starts march 15- May 1.  I may go to missouri before their season ends.  Last year I went and me and a buddy killed 2 really good birds in missouri.  I'd like to go back but between gas and licenses.......IDK.

I am going to start my season in MS on March 17th. I just couldn't stand not going back to the south. Then get back for our opener on March 26th. Then I head to SD on April 30th-May 6th. By that time I will be tired and run down.

I am going to start the last weekend of March in MS, then off to KS on an archery hunt the first weekend of April.  After that it gets a little hazy.  I will probably hunt a little here in AR (if I can find some birds), and will try to hunt Missori late april.  If I have tags left I will sneak back to KS for the gun hunt as well.

I'll start the youth seaon with my 6 yr old here in MS, then hunt here until the first week of April, then i'll head to Texas for a few days.  Then the last week of April I will head up to Missouri for a few days. 
...Like Hardcore, maybe i'll get lucky and kill a turkey this year as well.

I'm not sure Ronnie, since I haven't been before.  I think it's Choctaw County.  I called my bud/coworker today and he said his pasture was full of them the other day.  Maybe I can get one there, if not just give me the combination to yall's gate and I will try my luck there  ;)

I'm gonna miss the first week and a half of Louisiana season cause I will be at work. I will get home on April 2nd and will start things off then. I'll be hunting several different places in Louisiana until my buddy from work gets home and then we will be heading to Tx during the 3rd week of April to chase some rio's around. I'm looking forward to that for sure.
