Looking for a place that would be safe to take my boys this year turkey hunting. I have gone several times without any luck, and the places I went are so crowded with guys, I am affraid to take the boys out. I know about youth season, but with 2 boys, I can not take them both at the same time.
I live in Evansville, and just looking for a place that is not so crowded that a guy would feel half way safe with them.
I really do not know a ton about turkey hunting, tried it , liked it, but never killed a bird. The boys are looking forward to get out and try to see some birds to go after.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You

You might look at www. Basecamp leasing. They are out of Fishers (Indy area) Indiana but have hunting leases all over Indiana. You can do all paerwork thru computer and mail and don't have to travel to finalize lease. There website is very easy to navigate and shows you which counties have properties up for lease. It gives you a brief decscription about property and usually have pics of property. They have smaller leases that are perfect for Father/Son hunt and probably average around $1,000.
I'm in the same boat with sons that are learning to hunt and as much as I don't want to spend cash it does feel good to have a safe place to take kids.
Goodluck...

$1,000 sure sounds like a lot for turkey, but I've never leased. Walmart has them fer under $20 and their big toms too(beard not included though  ) if it make ya feel better you could always shoot some lead in em before you stick em in the oven lol. Hope you don't break the bank GL |

P.S. Shoot em after you get em home; not in the store. They kinda frown on that.

BTW, I have killed many birds on public land over the years
you have to get out there and scout and get away from the crowds...there are no shortcuts
my 7 year old and I will be on public land the opening day of youth season
