W
hen thinking
about an exciting
hunt, the
first pursuit many hunters
think of is elk. And while
elk do offer an exciting
experience afield, there's
no spring elk season to get
that thrill. You don't have to
wait for fall for that exhilarating
hunt, though. There
is a season that's so close
friends of mine consider it
better than pursuing rutting
bulls in September. That
sounds like blasphemy.
Could it be?
Ponder for a moment. What's the allure of
putting it all on the line for a stinking bull elk?
Heart-pounding adrenaline is one big draw
to it. The thrill of hearing him respond to
your calls? Absolutely. Hearing him coming,
hooves pounding, matching the thumping of
your heart? It can't get any better.
All that and more is available this spring,
and now is the time to gear up for turkey
season.
Turkeys? You mean those mean birds that
chase kids in the barnyard, scaring them for
life with nightmares? No, those are tame
turkeys. The only way you're going to get
that close to wild turkeys is if you're a savvy,
dedicated hunter.
Spring turkey season gifts hunters a ticket
to get out of the house after a long winter,
rich with a dose of excitement, frustration
and - if so blessed - a delightful meal well
worth the challenge.
