10 Instagram Huntresses Who've Bagged Head-Turning Turkeys This Season

Bagged your turkey yet? These ladies have, and their pics are making us gobble with jealousy!

Ask any hunter which season they look forward to the most, and it'll be a toss up between turkey and deer. For us here at Wide Open Spaces, the arrival of spring with its awesome 'thunder chickens' is a thrill that simply can't be beat. (Don't get us wrong, we still LOVE deer!)

The following lady hunters have already tagged out on some awesome turkey early in the 2017 season. Whether taken with bow or gun, bagging a bird takes skill and determination, and these huntresses definitely possess both traits.

Be sure to give each of these ladies a follow on Instagram. Their accounts are always a delight to scroll through.

I got it done today! I was so worried after we stopped hearing gobbles around 9am that we were not going to find any turkeys. We ended up finding a small group and I was able to cut the Tom off while Ben held the decoy. It was a one shot drop thanks to my @syrenusa XLR 5! @sitkagear | @tactacam | @hardy_facepaint | @shelivesoutdoors | ________________________________________ #hardyfacepaint #syren #nomorecompromises #SitkaGear #sickforit #sitka #southdakota #sdinthefield #sd #hifromsd #mtnops #howiconquer #conquer #conqueryourunknown #rocktheops #shareyourhunt #iamsportsman #whatgetsyououtdoors #turkey #turkeyhunting #instagood #inspiration #instamood #hunt #hunter #itsinmynature #cabelas #canon #canonusa

After two days of hard work we were finally able to get a bird on the ground yesterday afternoon! After drying him out from the rain he weighed 23 lbs 7oz had a 10 inch beard and sharp 3/4 inch spurs which I'll post a pic of later. Thank you Lord for another successful hunt! Next stop Oklahoma @toxic_wisener @surrenderoutdoors #surrenderoutdoors #fancollectorcalls #vortexoptics #kentucky

Last Monday I was hunting long beards in TX with my buddy @kylebarefield and it's all I can do not to jump on a plane and go back. So. Much. FUN!!! Turkeys everywhere gobbling all day, and I got to hunt hogs and see jack rabbits for the first time, so my very first experience hunting TX did not disappoint!! HUGE thanks to @theresistancetv for letting me tag along for a couple days!! #cantstoptheflop #texasturkey #realtree #realtreelife #itsinmynature #theresistancetv #iwillbeback
