Sorry Thomas let you down too. Stay out of my draw but if you do go in there remember one thing. Water tank. have fun and call me when you get back to where you can.

There's probably still enough food in the fridge that we left last year since biggie and marty left a day early.

Just packed .... Out of room..... need another truck to follow me.   Stopping by the fish plant to pick up fresh fish.

just loaded my juicer and 50 lbs of produce.....that way the citric acid neutralizes the catfish grease.

Glad TB backed out because I have no room for him,  Schleif is from alsaka so I know he packs light.... just  a fleece outfit, bow and three arrows, then he will rummage through all our gear looking for I don't know what?
Aim down your arrow because thats where it's going.

Now Whip you know Kenseth is just down the road from us so be kind. They turn right only if the car is loose by the way so now you know all you need to know to get along.

Hope the trip goes well for you. I was out today putting in a a few food plots and heard the toms gobbling like crazy. It was around noon and they were sounding off. Seems like everyone is doing better this hear with the birds. The weather has been much more pleasant. I will be trying to get out myself this week. My brother tradhunter, my niece and my nephew are all ahead of me.

It's been a crazy month for me and up to now, I wondered if I could actually pull this trip off.  Sickness and death has hit my family a bit hard and I've only seen the turkey woods for a couple of hours this spring.  

Final packing is done and the last decision to make was the calls.  I usually use mouth calls since I don't hunt from blinds and want to keep movement to a minimum but this is a special hunt.

Call #1 Neil Cost Box made for my Dad in 83.  I've never hunted this call without him.  Special but a bit sad.  Not a story for now.

Call #2 A copper pot call made by a local fella that has been to multiple states and killed multiple birds this season.  Many stories in this call that even I don't know yet but I hope to add one or two to the journal myself.

Call #3 A Joebuck Wooden Hen.  If I have to explain it, you wouldn't understand anyway.

Dang Jullian, your wooden hen is alot better looking than mine. I just got off the phone with Joebuck. He's halfway across Missouri and excited as a kid at christmas. Good luck to all.

Just hit Roach-tel 6 .     Why do motel owners cook in their room?  Can turkeys smell curry?

Neil Cost!!!!!!     What a call.  My favorite call maker of all time .  U get special pass Julian to let your hair down on this hunt.  U get to pick your first batch of 50 gObblers.  

Birds have busted up and we are hitting it perfect. Now can we hit them?   Hitting the hay.  Travel safe

As Willie would say, "I'm on the road again...."

As soon as the coffee finishes the brew cycle I'm out the door.  

I'm just a bit concerned though.  Joey keeps promising to send me directions to the ranch, and I still don't have them.  He's almost there and hasn't even told us how to get there yet.  Maybe he's had second thoughts about his choice of hunting partners this year.

But hey, an invite is an invite, and we're coming!  Nebraska's not that big.  We'll find him.

Looking forward to following this one! Looks to be a great bunch of guys hunting in an awesome location ... how do you beat that!!!
To me, the ultimate challenge in bowhunting is not how far away you can succesfully make a killing shot but rather how close you can get to the animal before shooting.
