Didn’t know we had draw areas for Turkey. I don’t pay much attention to the Turkey sections of the game guide. They’ve made a mess of the whole hunting system. Sometimes I think it’s more trouble than it’s worth. |

I always put in for the Valle Vidal Turkey hunt just because I like to spend time in the Valle Vidal whenever I can. |

So a little late notice guys, but the draw ended on March 20th. I just got mine in on the 19th. This will be the first year I have 3 family members attached to my applications. Not exactly sure what that means in the grand scheme of things, but guess we’ll know soon enough. Edit: going to do an otc spring turkey hunt as well. Anything to get out in the woods, away from the city. Also, good luck everyone. |

If your wife, son and brother are attaching to your application it is going to be all or nothing for the four of you. Everyone is dependent on your application number being drawn, if your number is drawn late and all your choices are filled you will get an unsuccessful for everyone. To improve your odds I would have all 4 of you apply separately that way you will have four application numbers in the hat and increase the odds that someone will get drawn and then at least you guys can go on a hunt together even if not everyone has a tag. |

Tried it that way for the last 5 yrs, only a deer tag last yr. Thought we’d try it this way this yr. |
