Out of State Turkey Hunts for 2012?

[Phantom Gobbler]

Anyone planning to hunt turkeys out of state this year with the "pending improvement" in the economy?   

Anyone closing in on their first or subsequent slam?

And no Yelp .......... leaving Lincoln County to hunt Merriam's in Stevens County does not count!

Not sure why anyone would want to go out of state to hunt turkeys?  The NE corner is a damn good place to get some birds.   

What neighboring state is any better and worth the extra cash?

I won't be hunting turkeys out of state this year, and "worth the extra cash" is always a consideration.

But central and northern Idaho have excellent turkey hunting, as does Oregon.

California has some awesome turkey hunting too.

Stevens county can be a different country when you get off the black top! I got some family up thar in those parts!

I do all my Turkey hunting in Montana.  The only reason is it is legal to hunt them with dogs.  I have shot them with my springers flushing them and have shot them over my pointers.  Which is quite the thrill when you are walking up to a dog on point expecting a rooster and a turkey jumps up.

Yelp I didn't know we were family. I makes me feel pretty good but you have never invited me to a family reunion

I've got friends that just built a new place in Troy, Mt with turkeys all over the place ... the one catch is I have to bring the wife if I come hunting.
   Works for me ....

Sounds like thar is going to be some feuding going on in the NE starting April 15th, instead of Opening Day of General Spring Turkey Season?   Any Hatfield's and McCoy's up that way?  Let's not leave out Colville and the surrounding fine communities?  Be on the lookout for any "hunters" carrying Backwoods Turkey Calls in their vests!

I've been down to Ione the last 4 years at a friends place, and killed 4 birds. I usually go to just get some sun, but the birds are nice. It's not that expensive, and the season starts at the end of March. Got a 10 inch beard the first time and a 12 inch the third time.
