RE: where to hunt rios?
West Texas is the place to go , if you ask me-
I've been making a trip over there for the last two years and the hunting is 2nd to anything I've encountered-Of course I dont get out much either!
If your interested in making a trip out that away shoot me an email and we'll talk.

We acctually have a few rios in Idaho along the snake river. Not enough to tell anyone to go hunt them but they are there. Most of our birds are hard gobbling merriams, We also have a few easterns in the northern part of the state. The rios and the easterns were introduced to Idaho and never really flourished. The merriams took off like wild fire. There are still pockets of the rios and the easterns left. I dont know of any other sate where you can get 3 of the four in a grand slam without leaving the state borders. Any help on getting my osceola for a grand slam would be appreciated. Maybe a trade for a merriams. I have killed easterns out here but miss the big fat butter balls I used to kill back east. I am starting to feel the itch already and I cant scratch it.

Another vote for Texas here. Though Texas is known for deer hunting, everyone that comes to my neck of the woods seems to have an extremely successful hunt. West/Central Texas is the place to go.

wacker, I wouldn't doubt it. All of these sates atarted around the same time. We were trading Sheep Goats Elk etc for turks. Good trade in my book. Moved out here from back east and haven't missed a step in turkey hunting.
