Nebraska 2014

[neal]

Hit my favorite state to chase turkeys again and had a great hunt as always!! Was able to take two very nice merriams one topping the scales at 23lbs with 1 1/4" spurs. And as always Brady with Heritage outfitters http://heritageoutfittersne.com managed his leases perfectly so they weren't over pressured and over hunted. 4 of us were able to take 7 birds with one guy having a few misses.  IMG]http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/04/26/ybumyrug.jpg[/IMG]

Congrats!  After the season I'll be asking you about info on that outfitter.  Too late for us to arrange things for 2014 but two of us are looking hard at 2015 for a Merriam.  Great pictures btw.  After ten years in Florida the snake picture was "cute" but of little concern.  If they are going to get you - they'll get you.  Snake boots or snake gators are as important as pants down here. .  Thanks for the post.

I HOPE you are aware that basically the whole Chadron area has burned to a crisp! I started hunting there several years ago myself and up until a few years ago it was the most beautiful place Ive ever had the pleasure of chasing turkeys. We killed the snot out of em too. 3 maybe 4 years ago a LARGE portion of it burned but we were still able to kill birds. Then the very next year it burned AGAIN! This time, it pretty much wiped out all of my honeyholes. Last year we were still able to kill a few birds but it was nothing like it used to be. The truly sad part is that as slow as stuff grows out there, it will NEVER IN MY LIFETIME be as good or as beautiful as it once was.

This area is southwest NE and the outfitters website is http://heritageoutfittersne.com if anyone is interested in 2015 archery or shotgun I'd recommend contacting Brady asap he books up very fast and most guys book for the next year before leaving like I did. One of the best outfitters I've ever hunted with he does a great job managing his properties so whether you're there for the opener or the last days of season you'll be on birds.

Gorgeous birds, congrats!!! I had a blast when I hunted Nebraska as well. Beautiful state!! Great pics, thanks for sharing!

Yea I know it burned. Sounds like a real bummer.  They are still killing a bunch of birds on this place but have lost most of their deer herd. Ryan
