MTNF is made up of several pieces. On my way to a funeral last week near Van Buren, we saw a nice flock of birds crossing the road. Made me think about going down to hunt this  Spring.

I live 25 miles from Van Buren on J Hwy. We see several crossing the road. There is a ton of hardwoods in there.

Just to for warn if you haven't been in a area in the last two years that you have hunted in the past you might be surprised in what you find when you arrive.The National Forest service has several large areas they have already logged or are in the process of logging. I know of a few areas in the Winnona district and several areas in the Ava district. Some areas have been thinned and other areas are pretty well decimated.

I drove to Springfield, MO across Hwy 60 and passed through Elsinore, Van Buren, etc.  I spoke with a local fellow about the fishing on the Current, and could tell from the large stands of hardwoods along the highway why MO is a good turkey hunting state.  I saw massive numbers of doves headed to roost in the trees in the evening.  I've been through a lot of parts of MO but that is the first time I've made that drive, and my response was, "Why haven't I seen this before?" It's neat country.

It's beautiful country. I've been hunting above eminence the past couple seasons and it's some very ruff country.
