There are very few turkey outfitters in La. Miss. and Alabama have many but your going to pay an arm and a leg. If you want to see tons of turkeys, go to Texas. There are dozens of good outfitters with reasonable prices. You can kill 2 longbeards, meals, and lodging for three days for 800.00 or less. I have found some places for 500.00to 600.00 for all three above. If you can shoot straight you will probably kill your two. You will see all kinds of wildlife. Texas is a special place when comes to turkey hunting, but I still love my tough Louisiana turkeys.
most places I checked before heading to "Bama...most ave $300/day... thats' too much IMHO, but obviously they're getting it. we ARE talking about harvesting no more than 20 lbs of meat... and I won't pay $300 for a 11" beard....Outfitters have gone crazy..altho it's due to many variables, like insurance,etc...but most common workers can't dish out a thousand bucks for a three day hunt...
I can only imagine what an elk hunt costs these days......
