Kevin.........
It's SERIOUSLY not rocket science at all. Here's EXACTLY what I've done with great success.
1. Google the wild turkey sub-species range distribution map.
Decide which sub-species you wanna hunt and find where they are according to that map.
2. Decide which state(s) you wanna hunt those birds in.
3. Get the public land access guide for those states by contacting their fish/game dept.
4. Start cross-referencing public access lands on Google Maps satellite view or Google Earth.
5. Log the very best looking areas..........timbered river bottoms......Ponderosa ridges.........wooded breaks........etc. The ones you want to concentrate on. Study those pics as much as you can. Won't look anything like that when you see it from boots on the ground. So knowing as many of the prominent features is key to a quick start.
6. Google camping/lodging nearby. Make your reservations early. You aren't the only guy doing the same research.
