MUSSELSHELL OUTFITTERS, LLC IS A PATRON CORPORATE LIFE SPONSOR OF THE NWTF.
This hunt is one of the best kept secrets in Montana! We have a
great population of true Merriam's turkey in our area and you can take
1 or 2 birds in the spring. The birds here are not hybrids and most
have a very white tipped fan and wing feathers. Over the past 19 years outfitting this area we have helped hundreds
of clients take the beautiful Merriam's turkey and many have completed
grand slams or world slams with us.
We have prime areas to hunt and
have many gobblers located at any given time. On this hunt a client is
free to call his or her own bird if they wish or we are always happy to
call for you. Either way, we will get you from the camp to the best
areas to hunt each day and will stay in the field all day to help you
in any way we can. We can hunt turkeys all day in Montana which gives us 15 hours
hunting time per day if needed. If hunters do not take a bird early in
the mornings, then late afternoon and evenings can be a turkey hunters
dream in this area. This is a very high success hunt in very unique
turkey country. Many clients tell us that the Merriam's here are the
most beautiful birds they have ever seen. On this hunt you will most
likely see a large quantity of other game such as deer, elk, antelope,
pheasant, and possibly bobcat as an added bonus. We offer this hunt as
a 1 bird, 2 day hunt, or as a 2 bird, 3 day hunt.
On this hunt
you would arrive on day 1, get settled into camp and have an evening
meal. You would then have 2 or 3 full days to hunt depending on the
hunt that you book (2 day or 3 day hunt) and you would depart the
following morning after a continental breakfast. On the 1 bird, 2 day
hunt you would get 3 nights lodging and 2 full days hunting. On the 2
bird , 3 day hunt, you would get 4 nights lodging and 3 full days
hunting.
