Seven J Outfitters

We had a total of 72 clients.

62 of these hunters harvested at least 1 Trophy Tom, for an 86% kill rate.

Only 2 of these hunters did not have a shooting opportunity at a mature bird.

36 of these hunters chose to do the 2 bird hunt.  25 hunters harvested 2 birds.

13 hunters chose to do the 3 bird hunt.  8 of these were successful taking all 3 birds.

To sum this season up, this was definately one of the toughest Turkey seasons we have had. 

We had an excellent April, harvesting Trophy Toms.  The weather was much more condusive to hunting Turkeys.

May came and the weather went down hill.  Most of the 20 days in May, we dealt with cold, wet and very windy weather. 

Adding to the tough weather conditions, we also experienced 46 Total misses, throughout the season. 

Because of the harsh weather conditions, the misses really effected the total outcome, a lot more, than it has in past seasons. 

We really want to thank our guides Kenny Morga, Jimmy Walz, Mike Aberle and Mike Sneezby, for their extra efforts this season.  It is tough to get birds every day when the weather is going against you.

We also want to thank our excellent kitchen and lodge help – Helen Tenke, Mona Gill, Karysa Idler and Gari Gill.  Your extra efforts help us make our hunts run smooth. 

Thank you also to all our clients who choose to hunt with Seven J.
