Spring Turkey Hunting
Our Texas spring turkey hunts have grown in popularity in recent years.
WSI currently has a tremendous land base with properties located in the heart
of the state’s best spring turkey hunting regions.
It is no wonder that over 75% of our spring turkey hunting business is repeat
customers, as our success rates every year are near 100% on hunters taking at
least one Rio Grande gobbler, and most hunters take two.
Why go Turkey Hunting with Us?
One of the key ingredients to quality, high
success spring turkey hunting is the ability to have access to large land masses
of quality turkey habitat. We have it. Annually, our Texas turkey hunts take
place on approximately ten different turkey hunting properties totaling near
100,000 acres. We restrict the number of mature gobblers we take off of a given
property, and we adjust the harvest numbers annually based on our turkey
population’s reproductive success during the three years preceding the current
spring turkey hunting season. This allows for large numbers of big,
mature birds. We are also very conscientious about how we hunt our properties so
that we can ensure fresh birds and fresh hunting areas through the season’s
entirety, providing all of our clients with a quality Texas spring turkey
hunting experience.
What Is Furnished On Our Texas Spring Turkey Hunts
We offer two different spring turkey hunting packages. Our most common
turkey hunting package is an all-inclusive arrangement that provides you with
guide (2x1), meals, lodging, airport shuttle (conditional), and game care.

Our standard turkey hunting arrangement allows you to take up to two
mature gobblers, but we do occasionally allow our hunters to set up three or
even four bird package hunts (inquire).
We also offer a limited number of “unassisted” Texas turkey hunts where
hunters essentially do their own thing. On most of these hunts, hunters either
camp out or stay in town in a motel. This is a no frills deal, but the turkey
hunting is great, with hunters enjoying high success hunts.
Hunting License & Seasons For Texas Spring Turkey Hunting
Turkey Hunting Licenses are unlimited, over the counter licenses, where no
drawing or lottery is required. Nonresident spring turkey hunting licenses are
$120, unless you purchased a general non-resident license during the previous
fall, and then you only pay for a $7.00 Upland Bird Stamp Validation. There are
no age restrictions in Texas, and youth licenses are only $6.00 for a Texas
turkey hunting license.
Our Texas spring turkey hunting season essentially runs from the last weekend
of March through the second weekend of May. Our southern spring turkey hunting
zone starts two weeks prior to our north zone and ends two weeks earlier than
the north zone.
Texas Turkey Hunting - Combo Hunts
We offer a unique and fun spring turkey hunting - combo hunts
package where you can hunt turkeys, hogs, and possibly javelinas on the same
hunts. These hunts normally take place in South Texas and include one gobbler
and two feral hogs, or one gobbler, one feral hog and one javelina. These Texas
turkey hunting combo hunts are generally limited in availability, so don’t delay
if you are truly interested in booking one of these Spring Turkey - combo hunts.
