My Hunting Partner and I had a great week in Nebraska.
Hunt started off slow, high winds, cold weather not great for Turkey hunting. But it broke on Wednesday and the birds started to cooperate. Thursday morning Mark called in a bird he had roosted the night before, actually called the hens and the Gobbler followed, blew up on his Jake decoy. The results.


 I got lucky that evening, couldn't get the Gobbler away from the hens that morning, but went back early evening and fired him up. He Came in real quick. My first bird of the hunt.


 I didn't think it could get any better but it did. We both got another bird the next day. I didn't get a pic of Marks bird but here is a pic of my second bird of the hunt and a couple extra hunt photos.
 Thanks RW

 My decoys and blind, shot both birds from it.

 I think this is what is called a dirt nap. Good luck to all you guys chasing these great birds this spring.

If we're not supposed to eat animals ... how come they're made out of meat? ~anon

Bears can attack people- although fewer people have been killed by bears than in all WWI and WWII combined.

Steve, we were in South East Nebraska as well. Got out just before the snow. Out of seven hunting days we only had three good ones. Only takes one though, your right lot of season left.
I actually like the late season better, come May most hens will be setting, lots of Gobbling and willing Gobblers.
Good luck to you.
Thanks everyone for your kind comments, as we all know it doesn't work out like this all the time, but it's really nice when it does. I guess this is what keeps us going back.
