It’s time to explore the outdoors, and it’s closer than you think.
The Rolling Plains region of north-central Texas is a vast, open landscape that holds substantial populations of cattle, rattlesnakes and Rio Grande turkeys. I found all three on a 2022 hunt there, but it was the turkeys I was after.
This region is made up of arid, scrubland country, scoured by erosion, dry creeks and mesquite flats. Low oaks and junipers dot the hills. Tall cottonwoods and elms line any creek brave enough to have water.
