Medicarebowhunter may be a good source.
FYI - He has actually hunted with the legendary Mr. Fred Bear on a couple of occassions.
He has some last season Nebraska footage of approximately 25 gobs in front of his blind.
He had to pan and pan and pan in an attempt to capture them on film.
The early morning roosting racket he recorded was many times more captivating than any that I have been exposed to.

Lots of birds on public land, and most farmers will let you hunt turkey.

That sounds great Keb, but I need a Turkey iterpreter! I have always been a upland bird guide and still guiding when Turkey season came in so no time and too tired to care about going back in the bush when things warmed up.
Now, I have no Turkey land to hunt in Georgia so choose to work as apposed to learn how to call them. I am learning a little at a time however.
thanks, bigjim

You could call a turkey in in NE trust me, they are nothing like the ninja easterns in your neck of the woods.

Never question a man's choice in bows or the quality of an animal he kills. He is the only one who has to be satisfied with either of those choices.

yeah, you get in the right place in Nebraska and Kansas and all you have to do is put out decoys and keep quiet.

if you want a Merriam turkey then you will want to stick with the Northwest part of the state, otherwise you will be just hunting "mutts" or mixed breeds. Still fun though no matter what your hunting.
Have fun and enjoy the state. Don't forget to pick your self up a foam corn-head and a husker shirt while your here.

I used to hunt the panhandle every spring. Stayed at Fort Robinson and hunted the public land surrounding the Fort. Lots of land to hunt, lots of turkeys and stayed in a place drenched in history.

Big Jim you'd be better served coming earlier if possible birds are getting pretty smart by may. Although I seem to get the stupid ones every year. Muriams are few and far between in my area. Like Houska said northwest up in the Valentine area would be your best bet for a purebred. We have a lot of Muriam Eastern cross throughout the state if your options are open.

As of now, I have no choice but early May. I will have a couple weeks without shows after leaving the Tennsee clasic. Gotta make the best of it.
Still trying to figure things out. Not being turkey savy makes this much more difficult. I have been trying to find a hunting partner to go along, but that can be tough also.
thanks, bigjim

I hope something works out for you. Everywhere I hunt either has Easterns or hybrid of eastern and meriam. A few of us in our club are planning a youth mentor hunt the first weekend of May. Let us know how everything turns out. Lots of birds here. North central to north west is your best bet for meriam. Would love to invite you up if I had a place to go in that part of state.
