San Carlos Turkey Hunting ?

Recommended Posts

Can someone give me some info on San Carlos Spring Turkey Hunting? I would like to know how much the tag is, How do I buy one, when do the start selling them, how good is the hunting and about how far is good Turkey hunting from Globe?

 

Thanks for any info.

tags are all sold out for this spring.

 

looks like the website is no longer up, but you can call them.

 

"Sportsmen interested in applying for one of the trophy elk tags or wanting information about the other hunting and fishing opportunities available and permit requirements on the San Carlos Apache Reservation should contact the Wildlife & Recreation Department at 928-475-2343 or 888-475-2344."

 

I love turkey hunting there and you can hunt turkeys within about an hour of Globe on the Hilltop side of the reservation.

No, I'm going to wait until I can get the first hunt. Sounds like a lot of fun.

Also a great tag for a kid, lots of birds and usally very easy to call In several birds.

not much hunting pressure.and don't forget to buy a lion tag.

It's a lot of fun for sure! This year the early hunt is about 9 days earlier than when I hunted there in 2011 and some of my experienced turkey hunting buddies are going to go on the "late" hunt next year, because the birds will be in a more active state for better hunting action.

Anyone else want to chime in on that thought?

Thanks, Tommy

We applied for the early tags in 2014 but we've never heard a word! Tried to call the reservation several times and couldn't get through.

Going up in two weeks as there are about 6 of us with tags!

Last year there were three of us and we ALL got big birds! Everyone had a beard over 10 inches!

That is a fun hunt!
