Rio & Merriam's Turkey Hunt | Two Sub-species, One Hunt

Ogallala, NE

Lodge • Private • Guided

Description

If you’re the kind of hunter who lives for daybreak gobbles, running longbeards, and covering ground to strike a bird, this hunt was built for you.

We've teamed up to offer a unique two-camp spring turkey hunt that gives hunters the opportunity to chase two different subspecies in a single trip.

Over the course of four days, you’ll hunt Rio Grande turkeys at the South Camp and Merriam’s turkeys at the West Camp, giving you the chance to experience completely different terrain, turkey behavior, and hunting strategies - all on one trip.


Expect early mornings, aggressive gobblers, and run-and-gun action across proven turkey country. These camps are positioned where birds naturally want to be, from open country and creek bottoms to ridges and timber where Merriam’s love to roam.


Whether you’re working toward a Grand Slam or simply want to hunt hard and hear gobbles every morning, this is a trip serious turkey hunters won’t want to miss.


Success Rate: 100% success rate the last two seasons


What’s Included

  1. 4 days of turkey hunting
  2. Opportunity to harvest 1 Rio Grande turkey (South Camp)
  3. Opportunity to harvest 1 Merriam’s turkey (West Camp)
  4. Lodging at both camps
  5. Access to prime managed turkey hunting properties
  6. Experienced guides who specialize in working spring gobblers


Hunting Style

This is an active, run-and-gun style turkey hunt. Hunters will cover ground locating gobbling birds and working them aggressively through a mix of terrain types.

You can expect hunting in:

  1. Open prairie country
  2. Creek bottoms and roost areas
  3. Rolling ridges
  4. Timbered Merriam’s habitat

The guides know these birds well and will put you in position to strike gobblers and work them into range.


Why This Hunt is Unique

Most turkey hunts focus on one subspecies. This hunt gives you the opportunity to pursue two different birds in two different camps in a single trip.

It’s a perfect option for hunters looking to:

  1. Start or finish their Turkey Grand Slam
  2. Experience multiple turkey habitats
  3. Hunt with experienced guides on proven turkey ground

With a 100% success rate over the last two seasons, this hunt consistently puts hunters on birds.


Lodging

Comfortable lodging is provided at both camps during the hunt. Camps are located close to hunting areas to maximize time in the field and ensure you’re ready for those early morning gobbles.
