Hoyt03 Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 I am just curious what it cost to hunt with an outfitter for spring turkeys? Does it compare to the prices for a whitetail hunt, I would think it wouldnt be near as high. I'm hunting out of state this spring, but am hunting with family and not an outfitter. Just wondering what the price ranges usually are from anyone who has been on one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodsman2230 Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 Re: Turkey hunting outfitters All of the ones I have looked at have not always been that expensive....I depends on whether you want it to be fully guided or semi. Some semi guided hunts are only like 600 and you will most likely have to pay for the tags. And the locations somtimes dictates the price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbeck Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 Re: Turkey hunting outfitters You wait till you get my bill this spring, I have to pay for that trip to China some how. LOL boy is it going to be expensive, Lord help you if you shoot one cause the trophy fees are out of this world. Then I'm going to pick your pockets on the golf course.

MrWiggely Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 Re: Turkey hunting outfitters Guided most places I have spoken with charge around $175-$250 per day. Semi Guided your looking at $100-$150 per day. Often times you will have to get your own hotel with help from the guides too. If you looing at an outfitter I would figure on close to 1K to include lodging and fully guided. Those are the places I know about.

VtBowhunter Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 Re: Turkey hunting outfitters I charge $250 a day for fully guided hunts, and $125 for semi guided. In both cases, I supply room and board and the hunts are usually over a weekend. Bear in mind that I've only been doing this for a couple years now.

Rhino Posted March 1, 2006 Report Share Posted March 1, 2006 Re: Turkey hunting outfitters Prices can vary a lot too depending on where you go, who you book your hunt with, what services are offered and how many birds you're allowed to kill. On average the price is genereally in line with the numbers stated above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VtBowhunter Posted March 2, 2006 Report Share Posted March 2, 2006 Re: Turkey hunting outfitters Rhino, you can also add that it depends on how much the guide depends on the money for income. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strut10 Posted March 2, 2006 Report Share Posted March 2, 2006 Re: Turkey hunting outfitters Price is dependent on a bunch of factors: -Guided/semi-guided/unguided -Room & board or not -transportations provided -public land or private land -tags included or not -sub-species to be hunted There are so many variables. I know of a place some friends of mine pay $33/day to hunt Rio's unguided in Oklahoma. I also know you can toss close $1000/day into a quality hunt for Osceolas or Goulds and Oscellateds may not stop there. It'a always best to get references and maybe not particularly choose a hunt on cost alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhino Posted March 2, 2006 Report Share Posted March 2, 2006 Re: Turkey hunting outfitters You said a mouthful Strut. No argument here. Personally, I would never book a hunt based on just the cost of the hunt. The quality of the adventure is paramount. Time is too valuable at my age.
