Put me down as maybe. I might do it because I just remembered that Kansas has an early archery turkey season. If I can figure out a place to go then I'll do it.

I am ok with chipping in a few bucks for food, or I will be happy to bring whatever the gormet chef decides I should... Let me know when it is decided.

I have other stuff that I can bring if needed like: 6' or 8' folding table, stove lantern and more...

Brian, I will be tickled to chase turkeys with you in Kansas too... Also, don't forget the Missouri flock we need to harass before season ends!

Brian, if turkey's would justify you buying the license, I have some pretty good turkey spots and we could always go out to western KS and hunt my father-in-laws place. I plan on making several trips out there and do some videotaping anyway. There are a lot of turkeys on his place. My wife shot at five big toms in one evening before she hit pay dirt the next day.

Guys, I'm flipping through the list of Kasey's that Gatekeeper posted (thank you Tom) and figuring out which one it is. I will try to figure it out and get a map and directions posted tonight or tomorrow. Thanks for being patient everyone. Tripper

I'd be happy to chip in. Thanks, Ben

Sounds good Tripper. I'll chip in. Dave P. we'll do it

If your meeting at the one in Oskaloosa I can get the addy for you, my sister works their.

I’m a little confused…pause insert smarta$$ comments here ( ) pause….

Okay I have looked on the KDWP web site and I do not see nor can I find, when doing a search on the Internet, a Valley Falls WMA. The only publicly funded land closest to Valley Falls that I can find is the Perry W.A. Is there an area that is actually called Valley Falls WMA or is there only an area that is referred to locally as Valley Falls WMA? Do any of you have a link to a map for the Valley Falls WMA hunting area? If so please post it.

Anyway… it looks to me like the Casey’s in Ozawkie is the closet to Valley Falls and it is 9.2 miles away according to the locating web site.

BMOELLER · « **Reply #68 on:** January 06, 2009, 08:41:00 PM »

Tom, I was looking at the Kansas Atlas. It has most of the public land areas in it. I'mputting my money on Perry WMA. I think Valley Falls is a kansas redneck term for that area.

They call it that because thats probably the biggest town that touches the area.

Gatekeeper · « **Reply #69 on:** January 06, 2009, 08:51:00 PM »

Brian,

I was thinking that also.

Paul/KS · « **Reply #70 on:** January 06, 2009, 08:55:00 PM »

"Biggest town..."? Heck, it's the ONLY town.
Such as it is...

It's up at the north end of Perry.

rg176bnc · « **Reply #71 on:** January 06, 2009, 10:00:00 PM »

Ya its Perry wildlife area. Valley is at the far North end.

KSdan · « **Reply #72 on:** January 06, 2009, 10:17:00 PM »

I am going to try as well. . . either side. Its on my schedule. I will have to see how I recover from a med. treatment. . . otherwise, even helping cook would be fun.

The wife and I are driving out to Colorado to pick up a horse on the last weekend of January so I'm unfortunately out of luck for this hunt unless the weather gets bad and we can't go.

For all you predator hunters out there.....
I saw an awesome looking bobcat running across the road north of Weston. He was cruising across this open field so I slowed down as it crossed ahead of me. When he got to the other side of the road he stopped and looked back at me. He was only 40 yards from me as I creeped by in the truck. It was acting like a rutting buck crossing fields in the daylight to cover ground. Go figure.

I learned long ago that if you are driving through a wooded area and see a bobcat cross in front of your vehicle stop immediately. Get out of your car/truck and walk up to the spot where the cat crossed and look for him. 90% of the time they are sitting within 20 yards of the road watching for you to pass by. It may take five minutes of looking but he/she will start to sneak off and you will spot them.

I am going to try to be there this time, God willing and the crick don't rise.

I've tried to look up what the actual name of the area is and I can't find it. I've always called it Valley Falls and have heard it referenced the same. I'm going to try and drive up there tomorrow to find out what that gas station is called. Apparently it's not a Kasey's anymore. I'll let ya know. Tripper

A horse?!

Don’t we have some of those here in Missouri?…. a horse “sigh” :rolleyes: well be careful and don’t fall off.

How long do you suppose it will take you to ride him back to your house?

Can’t they put him in one pound packages and send him to you? You are buying bulk dog food right?

Yeah Brian and I already figured out that it was you and your cousins that named the place.

Dave Bulla · « **Reply #78 on:** January 07, 2009, 01:34:00 AM »

Hey Kansas natives....

Now I've got a question. What all can a guy hunt if you just have a "hunting license"?

Brian was talking about hunting turkey in Kansas, is that on the basic hunting license?

If it's good for everything but deer, that would justify more of the expense. If it's good for turkey, how many and which seasons?

Thanks

Paul/KS · « **Reply #79 on:** January 07, 2009, 07:23:00 AM »

Not sure on that Dave. The wildlife dept. in this state is pretty confusing with it's regs... :confused: you are required to buy turkey tags so I'd guess that with the license and tags you could hunt them...

Oh, I'll be willing to kick in for the food fund too. Are you making those stuffed jalapenos like you made at Mojam...? :eek:
