Yes there are.
If you're thinking of hunting in that area you might as well drive around pre-season to scout all the farmland that's available. The turkeys will be in those fields in the morning and in the evening eating the corn or soy beans. You can then knock on some doors to gain permission to hunt on their land.Quote:

True but I also find it much easier to get permission to hunt turkeys as opposed to geese or deer.Quote:

I never got a turkey there, but I didn't dedicate much time to it since I had better private land to hunt nearby.Quote:
