Lubbock county does not have a season for Turkey. Some of the counties around Lubbock do though. Mainly going southeast of Lubbock. There are primarily Rio Grande Turkeys in the area. I'm new at turkey hunting but I was lucky enough to call in a gobbler on my first try on May 4th last year, not sure if that is the best time to be hunting them or not.

Spring season is March 29th to May 11th. I would say your best bet for decent weather and turkeys gobbling would be mid to late April into early May. I know they were gobbling good the first of May this year. I would think that if you got here too early in April that they might not be in full swing on the strutting and a cold snap could also put a damper on things.
My land is about 6 miles east of the Scurry county line.

I am in the North County list (I live in Abilene which is Taylor County) and I have experienced the best time is the very beginning of the season or the last part of the season. Scurry county is a couple of counties west of Taylor. If I was planning a trip, I would shoot for the first or second weekend of April.
