Title: NE turkey hunt, date is set!
Post by: Mike Bolin on February 24, 2009, 07:38:00 PM
I will be heading to Nebraska on April 1st! I will meeting up with a fellow tradganger and hunting the archery only season. Got a camping spot and a wall tent w/a wood stove lined up and am getting my gear lined out. Psyched up to say the least. If all goes well I plan to hunt for 5 days and if the good Lord's willin' FINALLY take a bird (or two) with the recurve. I'll be packin' my 62" Rose Oak Tomcat w/53#@28" limbs. Beman 400s with 125 gr. Snuffers mounted on 75 gr. adapters. One of my buddies is going with me and it will be his first out of state hunting trip. I haven't taken a vacation of any kind since 2003 and I am ready for some time in the woods with a good bow and good friends! Better head to the garage and sharpen some Snuffers! Mike

Dan, I got the pics and no it isn't a joke. I got the "blessing" on this trip from my daughter. I will be in NE on her 27th birthday. It will only be the second time I have missed her birthday.....last time I was working in Oklahoma. I DO have to take her out for dinner the weekend before, but I was gonna do that anyway! Thanks to all for the "good lucks" and I will take alot of photos and post when I get home. Mike
