The 2026 Sonora Mexico Gould’s Turkey season has come to the end. We had a great season, 100% shot opportunity and success with every client we had in camp.
Congratulations to the ones who completed their Turkey slam and congrats to the ones who got their first ever Turkey. I could not have had this successful season with out my crew, Jorge, Carlos, Alfredo, Viejo and Tonito with assistance from Julio and this last hunt we were joined by Marla. I want to think all of our hunters arrived as clients who I now consider friends. Great times to be in the woods hearing Gobbles from every direction at dark thirty waiting on first light.

Gould’s Turkey hunt # 2 is done. We had a 2 hunters from Kentucky, 2 hunters from Utah and 1 from Colorado. Colorado Richard brought his bow and on the first day he had no problem taking 2 great Turkey’s. The other hunters could not wait and also took nice birds. For the past 5 years we have averaged a day and a half of hunting and we are still 100% successful , thanks to clients making good shots. We only take 5-6 hunters at a time on this unique ranch. The ranch house is over 100 years old, one of the things that I like is one of the bedrooms has a dirt floor, talk about rustic comfort. Thanks to the 5 hunters and special thanks to guides Carlos & Jorge, “Tonito” and el Viejo who know turkey hunting like no others.
Hopefully the next group of hunters have as much fun as these guys. I do know that all our hunters eat well thanks to Alfredo.

Well the first group of hunters are done.
We were waiting on the last hunter and he’s done, keeping this Gould’s Turkey hunt 100% success on this ranch. We average a day and a half even for 5 hunters. Alfredo Mijares our cook does a great job as well as guide Carlos Arvizu and the others.
Makes me happy to have great people who I now consider friends.

First group of Gould’s Turkey hunters in Sonora, Mexico. First afternoon we arrive and Shaun and Alisa did not waste any time in getting their birds. Father & Son doubled up today on the first day of their 3 day hunt. This area in Sonora is so beautiful and has a great population of Gould’s. 1 more turkey to complete another 100 % success trip. On this ranch we never know what we will see.

From my previous post yesterday about the Gould’s cancellation hunt.
Here are the pictures from the last couple days, the ranch owner just sent me.
Note the hen with a beard, I saw 2 like her last year.

Arrive in Tucson May 5, you will be driven to Hermosillo Sonora on the 6, over night there and leave early on the 7 to the ranch. 3 full days of hunting, our shotguns available or bring your bow or crossbow. License and tag and all the necessary paperwork is included.

Well this is the Fith generation of Boido who lives to hunt. My 11 year old grandson who is named after my dad with his first elk hunt.
4 days of hunting public lands with ups and downs but he never complained and it all came together for him yesterday evening.
So proud of this young man and he’s love for the outdoors and hunting. He’s grown up following SCI and is a true conservationist.

Yesterday we said good bye and honored the life of Bill Hardy. Thanks to Krysti Hardy & Tracy Hardy for telling & sharing his life’s legacy. Phillip Dalrymple pointed out his mounting binoculars to a tripod changed the way we hunt and view wildlife. RIP Bill.

May board meeting week in DC. My first time going to meet with Arizona representatives on Capital Hill and their offices. We had some good discussions with Juan Ciscomani, Eli Crane and the assistants of Paul Gosar & David Schweikert. Very interesting and rewarding knowing we have their support and on our side.
