Saw three hens and one gobbler, the gobbler was with a girl friend and was not interested in my calling or decoys. Never the less, I got one and had a good time.



Nebraska mid-April can be a BITCH.

First time there, we flew into a municipal airport the first day it was opened after a 24"-30" blizzard that killed people. We were gonna hunt 5 days, but got chased out after 2 days ............ahead of the next 15" that was coming in.

Congrats on your 2021 spring turkey season, nice read! I had 2 seasons in IL, nothing during the 2nd season but got a very respectable bird in the 4th season. One season over with in WI resulting in a nice bird and leave this Wednesday for my second WI tag.

nice set of hooks


I may not be smart but I can lift heavy objects

I have a shotgun so I have no need for a 30-06.....
