RE: Where in Idaho?
Hey all, I'm new to Coeur d'Alene from Olympia, Washington! The last six months since I've been here I've been scouting out hunting areas and talking to the locals. Trying to figure out if I'm going to hunt turkey in Washington or claim my residency in Idaho, I've got both options.

idredneckgirl,
There are plenty of turkeys around this area, I would say you can find them just about anywhere. IMO it would be a waste of gas to go back to washington to hunt turkeys.
bkkeys,
where is in the middle of idaho?

Hey Elk Freak,
Yeah, I've seen quite a bit of turkey since I've been here. Everytime that I drive down 95 I almost hit a couple and there's a lot of them around a couple of my friends places. The only reason that I would go to Washington to hunt them is because I'm not an Idaho resident yet... turkey tags for Washington is $18.00 or so and non-resident for Idaho is $60.00 something!

Elk,
I am just a hop skip and jump from your area of Silver Valley. I live near St. Maries Idaho. I hunt all over in the Panhandle. Very nice to meet you by the way, it's nice to see fellow Idahoans on the board.
Robinhood, thanks for the compliment on the bull, yup he's a 7x7. I just got his hide back last night. I had it tanned. The pictures don't do him justice but he squared 43 feet!!!!!!!! My taxidermist told me its the second biggest bull elk for body he had seen in 30 years. The hide turned out awesome.
I love hunting elk....but like bowhunting whitetails even more!!!!! good luck to all .....
