All:

As you find out about different turkey hunting seminars and clinics in the area, please post the vitals as Captain BRK did. Such seminars can be great introductions to the sport. Thanks in advance, and thank you for the post Cap'n.

Although it's not in the DNR booklet that was mailed out, the Valley Yelpers Chapter of the NWTF will be doing a Turkey Clinic at the Caribou Gun Club, in Le Sueur, on March 24th, beginning at 6:30 p.m. Fee is $5. Any questions, e-mail me at [email protected].

We are also having a NWTF banquet on March 10th, same location, beginning at 5:30. So far, we have only sold 40 tickets. Odds in the raffles are pretty good right now.

Lakeville Gander Mountain Presents

Prostaffer Mike Foster and PRIMOS Hunting Calls

Join us for a free seminar

Friday March 18th

7:00-8:00pm

Seminar will cover locating, calling and harvesting turkeys with a gun or bow.

Mike will also cover the use of decoys,

blinds and other useful equipment for successful for turkey hunting.

For further information please contact the Lakeville Gander Mountain at 952-435-3805.

Note- I've met Mike before, and he's a good guy with a ton of knowledge about turkeys. Great caller too. He's typically at Cabelas during "turkey weekend". I'll find out when that is and make another post.

They'll be pushing PRIMOS calls, but IMO, they make some of the finest equipment for turkeys anyway. Check it out, I don't think you'll be dissappointed.

Called in this last year. A good time, but they're will be more than a handful of state champion callers on hand, along with a few pro-staff reps. from Primos, HS Strut, and the like. Not to discourage anyone from calling, as it's a great experience. Just that the prizes make this quite the competition. It's really fun to see how good some of these guys can get! A humbling experience for any turkey hunter, at least in the Men's (Toms) division.

I think there were only two female callers, and Jakes division had one kid-ringer, and only a handful of other kids competing.

Good luck!
