Title: Spring Trips?
Post by: buzzardroost on November 30, 2019, 03:47:27 PM
Starting to think about those turkey trips. Anyone got any trips planned already? I am trying to get border states to my home state of TN. Don't have Virginia yet. Thinking of George Washington/Jefferson National Forests but unsure if there's birds in the southern parts or not. Anyone else doing any planning?

If you come to Louisiana, be sure to bring a Ben's small mesh headset.  The biting Midges have been horrific, especially with the state setting the season back two weeks.  Charles Jordan would have horrified at that season setting decision.

Got a big one for me Hawaii, wife always wanted to go there. I said i had no interest to go there, and what sit on some beach; untill I found out they have turkey there. So I am going turkey hunting and she can go do what every. Other wise MN,(home state) WI, SD, WY, money should be all gone by then. And that is with sleeping in back seat of car or camper, Hunt public and eat junk food to stay alive. And CHASE TURKEYS. ITs not even the Holidays and you guys are already getting me pumped. Going to be a long winter

Planning on braving the swamps of Big Cypress to start the season. I'm sure it's gonna kick my tail. Gonna primarily here at home hunt in Mississippi while its season is open and hopefully take a trip to Oklahoma in April. In May, I plan on hitting Wyoming and South Dakota, maybe Montana, then finish the last week or 2 in Wisconsin and Minnesota. Last year, the 18 inches of snow in the last week of May had me tucking my tail when I was in the black hills/pine ridge, so hopefully I can get some revenge.

If there's a better way to live than that I'm not sure what it is!?
