Hello group,
I am new to hunting in Tennessee, although I have done my share of deer and pheasant hunting back in Nebraska where I originate. I am looking to try out turkey and dove hunting this year. May try doing some deer hunting as well with my rifle. The toughest part of hunting in a new state is finding out where to hunt! I appreciate any and all advice to a newcomer. I live in the Knoxville area if that helps anyone, although I am willing to drive to get myself and my dog a few nice chances at doves!

Here is turkey harvest data.  You can search on years, county, WMA, etc.   It will give you a place to start.   http://twrawildlife.com/Harvest_Report_Turkey.aspx

Welcome to TN.

 

Good luck finding a hot dove field....  those are guarded like gold.

 

I have not been on a good field since 1980.

 

TWRA manages or leases a  some that are fair.

Chuck Swan WMA is usually OK, but with TWRA budget, one never knows.

 

You can certainly scout off of the lists above.

I appreciate the warm welcome, just like the winters will feel compared to the midwest! Thanks Bert for the feedback. I'll give it a look.

Wingshooter,
If you have any public land suggestions for East Tennessee feel free to pass those along :). I haven't turkey hunted before, but I have camo and a gun... So I'm almost there!
