Blinds are permitted, either manufactured or natural. Cutting into a cedar will make for a well camouflaged blind. The cedar tree in the mid-west is a nuisance that most farmers welcome being cut, trees in a windbreak should be left alone.
Snakes are not likely to be encountered while spring turkey hunting. We do have rattlesnakes and copperheads. Neither are likly to be seen. No injuires to date.
Bugs may require spray during the latter half of spring season. Spring turkey season hunters will encounter ticks. Fall turkey season the ticks are gone.
No cactus.
Group or Single. For groups we can recommend large areas that all can travel from the same truck and each be in areas not pressured by others. Or groups may reserve the same property.
See Lodging for a listing by county and state.
See recommendations about where to hunt.
Long before members leave home they know exactly where they will be turkey hunting and lodge. Members pay for what they want, private land access. They are not paying for a rustic lodge or prepared meals.
