It's all according to how far I walk and if I go in front or behind the house. Could be from a 50yd walk to miles. Front has pastures that boarder Shawnee National Forest and back has soybean or corn..whichever is planted..soybeans this yr...that boarders Shawnee National Forest.

20 minutes in either of two directions to two different places.about,17-20 miles each way.i get about 20-22 mpg and it still expensive to go everyday.i can hunt public land 6 miles away if necessary.i guess,i should count my blessings for not being far away.
just an ole' retired man that still believes in values,and common courtesy.

Closest is 3 1/2 hours and 8 hours is the longest to my son's place in KS.
If I had a dollar for every gobbler I thought I fooled I'd be well off!

My home turf depending on the spot is between 10 and 30 minutes. The place I hunt in the southern part of the state is a 4 hour drive from home.

45 minutes is the shortest drive I have to be near a huntable population of birds.
