I just got home this afternoon from an amazing journey to western Kansas. A long time friend, Mark who retired in Colorado last year shared the 6 day whitetail hunt with me. We also spent some time with Jon aka snakebit40, who was a huge part of putting everything in motion.

I've got some incredible pics to show off the Kansas countryside along with a hero photo or two. Hopefully, Jon will chime in here and there, he played a very special role in one chapter of the story.

Stay tuned........Tim

Let's get the tale of hunt started! As mentioned the trip began with a flight from my home in PA to the Denver airport where my good friend Mark would pick me up.

As most of you know, traveling anywhere in an airplane to bowhunt is just inconvenient. You never to what to take, so you just take too much!
Fortunately, Mark met me in baggage and we hopped in the truck and headed to Route 70 east.

Our plan was to rent a state cabin located in Webster State Park. From there we'd hunt the walk in areas or the public hunting wildlife zones and figure it out as we go. We found the cabin and the view to be perfect!

The first night in Kansas we sat on the porch and watched an unbelievable display of color and the end to a long day of travel.

The beauty of Trad Gang is that it's an unbelievable resource for locating folks that share the same passion. I noticed that one of our members lived in western Kansas and reached out to him for some advice. What I received was incredible. Jon aka snakebit40 lived a good two hours from where we would be hunting but had a few contacts in the area. First thing Saturday morning Jon arrived at our cabin for breakfast.

The second wonderful thing about Trad Gang is age, gender and race are never an issue. Jon, although half our age was an absolute gentleman and right away we knew we where going to enjoy each others company.

I snapped this photo of Mark and Jon just before we headed out to meet a friend of Jon's and walk the ranch we'd be hunting.
