For the turkey hunter out there we offer an excellent spring Merriam Turkey hunt in Western Montana. Our properties feature the most absolutely perfect turkey habitat in all of Montana, which has led to our region holding the densest population of turkeys in the state.
We hunt only mature birds and since we maintain such a healthy turkey population here in the Bitterroot Valley, we have been running 100% shot opportunity on Tom's. The size of turkey we usually harvest is a mature tom ranging anywhere from a 6 inch beard up to 11 inches, with even dragging on the ground.
Our hunts take place out of blinds and spot and stalk, with decoys. Hunts include lunch and game handling. Hunters will need camo attire, including gloves, hat, and facemark. We highly recommend shot size turkey loads in 4's or 6's, with full to super full turkey chokes for these birds.
CAST & BLAST
For most of us there simply aren't enough vacation days in the till to cover both an annual hunting and fishing trip, but don't let that discourage you. With a little pre-planning, we can create a combo trip that allows you to pack both your reel and your shotgun.
We've found that fishing typically enhances a hunt and vice versa, and there's even a bit of built-in insurance. If the weather is ruining your hunt you may be able to find success on the water. Cast and blast trips are a great way to spend those vacations days.
We will help you tag out on a Tom. Afterwards, you're just a short drive from some of the best spring dry fly water in the state.
