I have hunted Mississippi, Tennessee, Kentucky, Nebraska, and Alabama...of the places I've hunted, Tennessee has the dumbest most suicidal birds and Jackson County, Alabama has the biggest arse hole devil mountain birds I've ever witnessed. Now I would probably kill more if I was patient and just sat somewhere all day, but I like to run and gun and if they ain't gobbling, I go the hell home.

I ain't gonna argue with that, the best hunters are from the south too. Them northern and western birds are easy if you kill hem here with any kind of consistency,

I've hunted MS, Alabama, Oklahoma, Nebraska, and Texas. I would call none of em really easy. A wild turkey is a wild turkey. Texas and Nebraska just have better hunting (more gobblers) than where I normally hunt. Toughest - Management Area 3 year or older gobbler from MS. He's heard it all. Now, at the end of the season when his hens are gone, he is very killable. I also think if you can kill em consistently in MS/AL, you can kill em anywhere.

I also think if you can kill ANYTHING consistently in MS/AL, you can kill ANYTHING anywhere. Fixed it for ya.... I've hunted turkeys in Al, Ga, Ms, Texas, Nb, ND, Fl,Ok, and homegrown Al birds are easily the hardest, esp any WMA birds or Wilcox Co birds. Wilcox Co has more surenuff UNKNOWN turkey killers, and always has, that any other area of the state.
I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

I agree with brentm. Pressured turkeys equal bad birds.
Do you want to hear him gobble, or do you want to kill him.

I have hunted in several states as well,and so far I have had my tail handed to me more here in Jackson county more than anywhere I've been.Several years ago I hunted with Jim Neighbors down there in those swamps,and those birds were alot easier mostly because of terrain.He declined a hunt up here,said he didn't think it would be worth the trouble. Those Midwest birds just never shut up,so if you have enough property,and patience you can kill em pretty regular.Iowa has some of the hardest gobbling,biggest birds I have ever seen,and I got lucky up there and killed a monster of a bird. I would have to say rite here in the south east corner of the usa is the toughest birds to kill.
I would rather be turkey hunting

I havent hunted alot of states but I believe if you can kill a Alabama WMA bird then you can kill almost any bird anywhere else. On a side note, I did kill two of those WMA bastages last year and 1 the year before. Quit trying to impress us.
Do you want to hear him gobble, or do you want to kill him.
