Non-resident Turkey hunting
« on: March 07, 2004, 08:41:41 AM »
:D Because I screwed up and didn't get the application in on time, I'm not getting a turkey permit in WI. Has anyone hunted out of state,do it your self for turkeys. I'm looking for an area to hunt and a huntable population of turkeys. I was thinking of South Dakota or maybe Mo. Any suggestions? :?

:D Hi Fred<
  Of course I would recomend coming to Pennsylvania! We are crawling with turkey in about 90% of the state.We have thousands of acres of public land,and a licence can be bought over the counter for spring turkey.I have already seen very large flocks this spring of about 60 birds plus.I sometimes hear 8-10 gobblers sounding off at dawn.My buddy and I have located over 100 different turkeys in our pre-season scouts. :shock:
As far as Missouri goes,I have never hunted there,but my nephew goes every year and does real well.He claims there are very few hunters and LOTS of turkey.GOOD LUCK
