Kansas Rio Grande Turkey Hunts

Semi-Guided Rio Grande Turkey Hunting with Rader Lodge in North Central Kansas. North central Kansas is the home of the Rio Grande turkey. This is a great bird to hunt, with some weighing up to 24 pounds. In Kansas, you can harvest 2 Rio Turkey's, which makes Kansas very appealing to turkey hunters. Our professional guides will do a great job of getting you into some real quality birds, but leave the hunt up to you. That's the beauty of our semi-guided / self-guided hunts - we take care of the scouting for you and put you on a good Tom. If you are looking to complete a Grand Slam Turkey Hunt, Rader Lodge is a great place to bag a Rio and complete a Grand Slam!
