Looking for info

I am wanting to go to Texas or Louisiana spring turkey hunting. I was working with a outfitter from Texas that sounded good but the only thing he had available was a last week of the season hunt around the first of may. That just wasn’t going to work for me and my buddy and his daughter. We are wanting to go someplace in March and preferably a place not to crowded as his daughter has never hunted Turkey before . If anybody has any info or know of a place I can go I would appreciate the info. Not looking for free but something reasonable to get a rio- Grande Turkey.

    All day and nobody comment on it so I guess nobody is willing to share hunting secrets.

    Sadly, I can't offer turkey advice.  The only turkeys here drive Pruises.  But I can give black bear advice in the Skwentna / Yentna drainages for late March time frames.  My buddy got a permit for 150 black bears in that region (we got lotsa bears here) and he stopped at 20.  So if you want to aim your sights a smidgen higher...............

    Mike- I plan on using my super black eagle 2 with a turkey load of 4,5,7’s. In 12 guage.


    bob- I cant do it this year because I was furloughed for three months from Walt Disney World so I wasn’t building any vacation time but maybe next year. I would love to hunt bear in Alaska.

    I don't know about TX but I was stationed at Ft Polk and the Turkey hunting out at Peason Ridge was awesome.  It is in Central LA.  I have never used a guide so I don't know anything about them.  I am sure there are plenty on the net.

    If you are willing to drive a little farther north, there are wild turkeys galore in central Montana.    Try the Bull Mountains about 30 miles north of Billings, and the farm country east in the Musselshell river area - excellent turkey, mule deer and white tail deer habitat.
