Post by: turkeyfeathers on May 21, 2016, 12:55:30 PM

So I have to admit I'm jealous of seeing a bunch of you folks hunting a bunch of different states thru out the season. I've only hunted NY. And this year has been a tough one here. 12x out, hunting hard and only played with gobblers 3x. Called in 4 hens now on different occasions. But it's hunting and not shooting ;D Some day I'll get to another state to hunt.

How many states have you hunted this season ?

How many states have you hunted lifetime ?

3 so far this year but I'm headed to Maine and Vermont on Wednesday so it'll be 5 before I'm done this season.

Maybe 22 or 23 different states in my turkey hunting career?

Just here at home in Iowa. Don't think I'll ever spend the money to hunt turkeys out of state. If I am going to spend the money, and I have, I'd rather go boom more than once, unless we're talking big game. Ducks in Texas. Geese and ducks in Nodak. Lots of booming there!

Funny you should ask that question. Since I started traveling, I found that America is a beautiful country, and Florida leaves a lot to be desired. So I set a goal of killing a gobbler in all of the lower 48 states before I die.
So far I've hunted in 11 states, and killed gobblers in 9 of them. I've killed gobblers in Florida, S Carolina, N Carolina, W Virginia, Ohio, Michigan, Nebraska, Oklahoma and California. The two states I struck out in are Georgia and Alabama.
I've got plans to hit 3 or 4 new states next season before I retire at the end of May. After that, I'm wide open and traveling to kill gobblers!! :fud: :turkey:

I have hunted turkey's in 37 different states and killed birds in 36 of them. The only one I didn't kill a bird in was Arkansas last year.

Trying to kill one in every state.

If someone out there wants to swap a hunt or two for states I haven't been to, let me know. "HAVE GUN....WILL TRAVEL"

Unfortunately I've just been able to hunt my home state in Kentucky and I've hunted Ohio one year. I'm looking to hunt a couple of more states in 2017. Any of you guys know of any good outfitters that's reasonable price right me a message. I would love to go back to Ohio and I would like to try Tennessee out.

Post by: mountman62 on May 29, 2016, 01:11:48 PM

only 2 states this year - Louisiana & Colorado, bird in both states, last year i hunted 6, had to back off a little LOL
past years - Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, Florida, Texas, Tennessee, Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, Missouri
so that puts me at 13, better hit a new state next year to get away from that number, but haven't killed in Florida, Arkansas, & Oklahoma, might need to change that, especially Florida to finish up my personal Grand Slam, not bad at all for a country boy that has never deer hunted out of the state of Louisiana
