Oregon does not have a Native population of wild turkeys. In the 50s and 60s the state introduced Easterns and Merriams. Those introduced populations just never took off, floundered. In the mid-80s the state tried Rios and those birds took off and in some areas bred with the holdover birds. So...

This was the last of my three birds of the year. I tried to post his pic with the other 2 yesterday but failed. Alas, here he is.

I'm sitting here with my wife "out west" and those dirty birds are winning the day. Wind is not helping the matter. That's my report from the turkey woods today.

Oregon allows three per season and I'm now tagged out. I went to three different areas to find these 3 toms, all of which were two year old birds. My wife is up to bat next. Oops only 2 pics will load.

Ready for the hunt with HTK Safaris!

Yep

Good for you! Planning is a big part of the fun. Enjoy!

Ready for the hunt with HTK Safaris!

90 day pause on tariffs just announced

Thanks for taking the time to write that story up. That is a stunning rifle.

I used to use Relive Taxidermy in PE but just received an email from Paul stating they have merged with Splitting Image since my last visit. Ill be using them for dip and pack and skull bleaching. The rest of the work will be done with local taxidermists.

That mountain reedbuck is unbelievable.

I also make my own calls, although 90% or more are called in just by voice.

Doesn't open here in Oregon until 4/15. Just waiting my turn!

I appreciate you posting those figures.

I'd gladly shoot him at cull pricing and do a euro mount. Trophy pricing, no. The PH or landowner can retain the cape for their use.

Thank you for that update

That's pretty cool

I was a very reluctant Trump voters this last go 'round. I must admit that, aside from Trumps Ukraine strategy, I've been quite please with his term thus far.

It seems that's been done before in Europe somewhere...

Im looking forward to hearing the reports.

I really enjoyed your story

Absolutely Shameful Edited to clarify my comments are in regards to my northern neighbor's military readiness.

Damn... I've been mixing light. Better fix that, I guess.

Wife just approved me going if you are so inclined. I have several hunt reports on here for reference and don't mind phone calls to see if we "click."

Greetings from Southern Oregon

Hell yeah... carry that list!

My suspicion is that he got an earful in his home country when he landed. Perhaps the locals tuned him up and told him get back to the table.

My Southeastern was in mountainous, not terrible terrain but incredibly brushy. My Ronda was in very steep and rugged mountains. I was actually shocked as all the research I had done had had me believing this hunt would be in much gentler country. I was fortunate as I had over prepared for this...

Really cool!

I just... as in moments ago... received 500 pieces of once fired Federal brass in the mail from Northeast Target and Shooting Supply. I'll be reloading my .308 up for a three day training event at Thunder Ranch. Very much looking forward to this. I used @KMG Hunting Safaris .308 on my first...

Great offer Marius!

Jack Keane was just interviewed on Fox regarding the Ukraine situation. I found the interview to have been informative and spoke much to what has been discussed (argued) here over the last few pages. Too soon for the interview to have been uploaded. Perhaps someone can attach a link later today.

Checking in to see how you and Charlie are doing. Best of wishes for you both.

@RyanPalmer I've shot them with .50 cal round balls from a hawken rifle. I've shot chucks with .375 H&H.

Hello from frozen Klamath. Seven below this morning! Sage rats are sitting on the snow.

Longest icicle is over 4 foot. Around zero Fahrenheit last night.

No reloading today but prepping for reloading. I'm glass bedding a new to me .308 that I rescued from a pawn shop. I'll bed the stock, develop loads, then load 400 rounds for a mid-range rifle class at Thunder Ranch. Meanwhile, I'm working on a walnut stock for the same rifle. After the...

Best of Adventures to you both!

She won't be around long. Oh well...

Thank you for all the detailed responses. I appreciate it!

@Bigry I'm in Klamath Falls, where you at? Here I am on my hikes prior to Spain. Have a foot of snow on the ground now.

Other than that, do a little jogging or mountain climbing to improve your fitness level. That will help you enjoy the moment.

Take your time. Enjoy being there. It will be over soon enough.

In the last four or five years, I've not gone anywhere internationally without my wife. We have hunted RSA, Argentina, Croatia, Romania, and Spain. I see a ton of offers on AH with no mention of observer fees or mention of possible other activities nearby. At the moment, I represent two...
