After two years of covid reschedules finally said "go for it" and jumped in with both feet. Airlines, rental cars, motels etc etc. Spent the first week of May chasing the Merriams and wasn't disappointed. Results pictured. BTW - flying in and out of Tampa and Denver had zero problems with TSA and my firearm. All of these forums seem to make a big deal out of this and again, for me, it has never been a problem. Ammo was in the gun case. Again no problem.
Bumped into many turkey hunters on the trip. Another secret out so I'm not even mentioning the state involved although I was close to three that were available to hunt. Good luck to all. My bucket list just got a check mark.

Congrats a great trip, glad it worked out for you and you finally got to make it! They're beautiful birds and I think they're one of my favorites to hunt just because they're so different in every way than what I've grown up hunting down here.
Did he put on a show for you and did the funky jake make the trip?

Way to go Joe!
Congratulations on some fine birds
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, tired, beat, thoroughly used up and totally worn out from chasing turkeys and loudly proclaiming; "WOW -- What a Ride!"

Good work.. I'm guessing you flew direct with Southwest. I never have issues.. but in the more liberal states it may take some extra time to check gun, some of them look at it with you and you have to wait. But if you have it packed right with lock, etc.. should have no issues.
