I'm looking to find some good public land in the northern TN or KY area. If anyone has hunted either and knows of some good spots and is willing to tell please let me know!

Someday I'd like to go there to hunt turkey.
I might get to hunt turkey in Illinois next spring, but this is a long way off.

The only public land in Kentucky or Tennessee that I've spent much time at all is in LBL. I've never hunted turkeys there, and I think those birds are notoriously difficult to call in (highly pressured), but it's a really cool place. I keep planning to try to get down there for a velvet buck in September, but something else always comes up.

Lots of turkeys in both Kentucky and Tennessee.

LBL is closed to September deer hunting this season. Check out the LBL website, season dates and limits have changed this season in LBL. In parts of LBL deer numbers are the lowest they have been in over 20 years. However, private land in KY is still open to September velvet buck hunting.

I knew numbers were down, but didn't realize they'd changed the season structure there. Hopefully the herd bounces back soon.
