RULES, REGULATIONS + TAXIDERMY
When hunting Rio Grande turkeys in Texas, it's essential to follow all state regulations to ensure a safe and legal experience. Hunters must possess a valid Texas Spring Turkey License, along with an Upland Endorsement, and must adhere to the bag limits set by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department. The limit is typically one turkey per hunter per day, with a maximum of two turkeys per season, though regulations can vary. It's also important to be mindful of specific hunting seasons and designated hunting areas. As for taxidermy, if you wish to have your turkey mounted as a trophy, we can assist with arrangements at the end of your hunt.
License Requirements: Hunters Safety Course, Texas Spring Turkey License (Non-Resident), and Upland Endorsement.
Bring your turkey home! If you want to have your bird mounted, we’ll make sure it’s properly cared for and can either be checked in your luggage or shipped home.

FAQ’S + POLICY
Yes, we know this part might seem a bit tedious, but it’s important! We kindly ask that everyone who registers for a trip visits the FAQs and Policy page on our website. If you sign up for a trip without reviewing this information, it’s your responsibility. There’s a wealth of valuable information there that could influence your decision. Please make sure to check out all the FAQs and Policies on our website before signing up for a trip with us. Thank you!
EXPECTATIONS + NO DRAMA!
We want to ensure that every trip with Her Wilderness is enjoyable and memorable, but we acknowledge that sometimes things don’t go as planned. Mother Nature has a significant impact on our outdoor adventures, so we encourage you to approach each trip with a positive attitude and a "go with the flow" mindset. If this feels unreasonable to you, we kindly ask that you reconsider registering for our events. Weather can be unpredictable, affecting activities like hiking, hunting, and fishing, and our top priority is always your safety. For instance, if your trip is focused on duck hunting but our guide believes a goose hunt is more feasible, we will follow their expert recommendation. If this kind of flexibility is not something you're comfortable with, we encourage you to think twice about joining us. We expect all participants to maintain a positive attitude, regardless of the circumstances. Many of our trips have faced changes, cancellations, or rescheduling, yet the understanding and adaptability of the group have made all the difference that still allows for an incredible experience! We take pride in creating fun experiences, even in challenging situations. Please be aware that our trips may involve sharing accommodations with others, unpredictable weather that could impact planned activities, limited bathroom facilities for larger groups, and the possibility of not harvesting the specific animal you hoped for. These are real scenarios that can arise, and while we’ll do our best to minimize issues, they can happen. We strive to maintain a drama-free and stress-free environment. If any participant brings negativity or drama, they will be asked to leave without a refund and will not be allowed to return. Our goal is to ensure that everyone feels comfortable and valued, so we ask for your cooperation in keeping a cool, calm, and collected attitude throughout the trip. We truly appreciate each of our customers and are committed to providing the best possible experience for all participants. Thank you for understanding, and we look forward to creating unforgettable memories together!
