Missouri Spring Turkey Season Results

Posted by Darrell under: Turkey.

   Assuming I did my math right, the total 2009 Spring Turkey harvest was 44,712 birds. That is 41,829 during the 3 week Spring season and 2,883 during the Spring Youth season.
Of those totals, I’m happy to admit that one of those birds taken during the Youth season was by my son Caleb. Unfortunately, Caleb […]

Missouri Fall Turkey Seasons

Smoked By A Turkey

Posted by Darrell under: Turkey; Missouri.

I don’t know what it is about Missouri Turkeys, but I just can’t seem to kill one. I didn’t grow up hunting them and just started last year. My big mistake, early on, was in not hunting with anyone that really knew what they were doing.
