Of InterestTurkey Hunting Iowa Spring Season Missouri Fall Season Spring Season | | What is typically picture on paid turkey hunting websites are harvest pictures showing clients at the lodge or at least the guide's road sign with logo in the background for advertising. On this website we have the same, well at least the Kansas wild turkey harvest pictures in our turkey hunter testimonial and gallery sections. We do not have turkey hunter pictures by a lodge or sign, we don't have any hunting lodge. Our Kansas turkey hunting is by self guided hunters. In addition to turkey hunter harvest pictures we also have a good many "live" turkey pictures to show Kansas habitat of of what it looks like when turkey hunting. 
The intent of the live turkey pictures is to eliminate the mystery of the hunt conditions the hunter may face. This picture is part way into the spring turkey season and just into green up. This Kansas field was freshly plowed just before a rain that prevented any further farming activity. It was a wheat field left fallow from the previous year for a spring planting of some other crop. The picture is cropped wide to show the surrounding habitat as best our camera can. The wooded background may appear to be a good sized patch of woods however, it is nothing more than a creek bed that did have spring runoff. The insert is an enlargement of the tom strutting for the hens that were up on the deadfall tree braches, presumably to get out of the wet brush. |
Hunt ComparisonWhat our Kansas turkey hunters have told us are comparisons with Texas is that our Rio Grande Turkey populations outnumbering those in Texas. Missouri hunters tell of how easier Kansas birds are easier to call in. Northern states hunters are surprised at how easy it is to get spring turkey tags. And the list goes on. Most agree there is far less turkey hunter pressure as evident by motel parking lot hunter encounters and shots heard in the field. What has surprised us the most however is how the video makers have ignored the long duration open field Kansas turkey hunting allowing much footage of toms in the open, green fields. Most videos involve woody areas where bits and parts of the strutting toms are captured on film leaving much to the imagination. Many that have been Kansas turkey hunting report watching their harvested bird for 40 minutes coming into call and decoy. However, the most common comment from those new to Kansas turkey hunting is how sedentary it is compared to the run and gun techniques often employed elsewhere. 
We spend a fair amount of time on the road scouting land, renewing leases or contracting new lease land. During that time on the road we get to see a lot of game. In this case a Kansas jake flock late in the summer. A curious act of nature that same sexed young turkeys will group together at this time of year. Adding up all these incidental turkey observations allows us a good idea of wildlife distribution within the three state area we cover. This lends toward good recommendations to our hunters of where to hunt to maximize their field time and experience rather than allowing them to take a gamble and just simply picking a turkey hunting spot that may or may not have flock activity. These boots on the ground qualified hunt recommendations are the means by which many new members have such a good start they renew their memberships the following season. |
