Well hopefully the good Lord allows me to make it to next season. This year had some high's and low's like every other. Just wanted to know if anybody else is already planning ahead for next year like I am? I've got a couple different spots in mind. Only about 6 months until I've got to start convincing the ol' lady.
Every year at this time I say to myself I'm going to be in better shape before season starts but seems like I fall further behind!!
I got Fall turkey season next...looking forward to it.

Yes, I'm hunting another state next year. I don't know if it's MS, AL, TN or KS but I'm gonna hunt something beside MO and hopefully it's a little drier than this season.
Im a spring turkey hunting addict. Im glad when the season wraps up where i can get rested back up and things get back to normal , but that only last a couple of weeks. Im right back to counting days until next season.
I have a October elk/mule deer hunt in Idaho to finish the details for as well as my deer and bear hunting in PA/NY when that wraps up in the winter I'll turkey my attention back to turkey with at least 3 states for next spring.

I'm not done this year, still have a late Nebraska hunt. With that in mind, I think I'll make Texas and Kentucky next year. I have an invitation to both.
Lining up a md hunt and scouting new property now. Also food plot time
I'm planning on getting moved into our new house we bought back in January. Still haven't moved the first piece of furniture yet. I did get the Internet and direct tv hooked up a couple weeks ago so I'm on a roll ;D

That would be Funky Chickens!
Leaving for Nebraska tomorrow and my season will be over. Lord willing I'm planning Florida ,Texas Louisiana and Kentucky or Tennessee for 2018. I have been a bow hunting fanatic for years but I think I'm burnt out on deer I think this fall I will squirrel hunt and scout new places for Spring Gobblers.
I start planning about 12-18 months ahead. Going to south Florida for the March 3rd opener, then to SC, Montana and then to Kansas to hopefully finish my single season slam. Planning is the fun part.
It never ends. If I am deer hunting I am looking for turkey....If I am turkey hunting, I am scouting for deer as well....and making turkey calls all in between! :TooFunny:
I'm really hoping to go out of state for the first time to turkey hunt. I'm excited to see new ground and try a new state for birds.
I'm really going to try to hunt a state I have never hunted before. My top three choices would be Oklahoma, New Mexico, and Kentucky. Would be willing to do a hunt swap for Missouri.
So far this spring I've killed in Florida, Virginia, Texas, New Mexico, Kansas, and Missouri. Hoping to add Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine to the list by the end of the week. We'll see how it goes.
As for 2018, my preliminary plans are Florida, South Carolina, Tennessee, Oklahoma, Texas, South Dakota, North Dakota, Virginia, West Virginia, and Ohio.
I'd like to complete my Super Slam within the next 5 years.

I thought North Dakota was resident only. Is there another option I wasn't aware of....native lands or something?
Reservation land option for NR's
I'm so ate up with turkey hunting, my wife had turkey tracks engraved on my wedding ring and on the inside, it says for better or worse hunting seasons. I got in to bow hunting deer a few years ago but nothing beats turkey hunting. I would love to try somewhere with my bow for turkeys next year. I took it on my last trip this year in case it was hot and heavy but it was anything but.
By the time it goes out I'm already looking forward to next season. I only get to hunt Alabama but it's what I live for. Since 2014 I've had two rotator cup surgeries & another disk in my neck fused. But I always get the repairs done after turkey season so I will rehabilitated by the next spring season.
Grayfox, you sound about like my dad. He had to have surgery on his hand one year in the fall, but he pushed it off through all the waterfowl seasons and turkey season before he had it done.
For me it's about staying in shape, work outside and round the house and watching my kids play sports. Fall is football, and volleyball, some bowhunting and rifle hunting(aka) meat collection time. After that we are into Christmas and the turkey calls come back out. Can't Say a day goes by without thinking bout spring turkey season though. It's all about staying busy till it comes round again and then trying desperately to make it slow down so I can enjoy it to its fullest which never seems to happen

This fall I'm goose hunting in Saskatchewan , which is simply the best, then turkey hunting in Montana , and North Dakota . I scouted a new area I want to try, because I got permission on a great ranch.
