Going out of state to hunt isn't a common thing for most people because it isn't cheap and they don't know who to contact to get a hunt set up. Hunting public land is a gamble no matter where you go and if someone decides to take the word of someone on a social media site as gospel.....well theres one thing to say about that....Buyer Beware

You can turkey hunt DIY in Nebraska, South Dakota, Oklahoma, and Wyoming pretty cheap and with confidence of success. I've done it many times. South Fl not so much, I have done that real cheap but I had personal contacts to get me in.


I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

90% of the turkey hunters I know take out of state trips every year.

I've hunted 15 or so states. From South Florida to out west and in-between. But Alabama is my favorite place to hunt......Mid to late March. Smoke hanging in the air from nearby burns and smoldering stumps. No green up yet. Crisp mornings. Tough turkeys. Forest roads. Gravel popping. Long walks. Nothing better to me.

Killed a turkey in Hawaii the first week of March. Hunted parts of 4 days and only saw one other hunter and that was only 300 yards from the road. Lots of public land and got within killin range all but one day. But the real cool part was I killed one at 8000 feet above sea level. To the north I could sea the Pacific Ocean 25 miles away and to the south I could see the volcano peak at 13,000 feet. Be warned though, if you slip and fall on the lava fields it will cut you up.

Always have wanted to hunt Merriams in Montana/Wyoming.


Life is a journey. Make sure and bring plenty of Beer.

My luck has been so bad lately, it could be raining pussies and I'd catch one with a dick broke off in it.

Well no matter what the area biologist tells you don't hunt the Southeast corner of Montana or the Northeast corner of Wyoming. I found out the hard way that some folks lie!

Are y'all doing pubic in New Mexico or outfitting? Working on planning a trip now.

Recently, I was invited to go to a western state with multiple subspecies. The way the guy talked it would be super easy hunting but beautiful scenery. Like most of you know many of the western ranchers don't really pay much attention to turkeys. I'm planning on taking him up on the turkey hunt next year as kind of a pre scouting thing for elk and mule deer for the next fall. I've never had a local take me before so if nothing else I that will be nice.

I'm looking as much forward to riding horses in the mountains as anything else. (Old school style).
