We did a Spring Turkey Hunt with Hunt Nebraska Inc. in the area surrounding Arapahoe, Nebraska last Spring and had an excellent experience after a horrible flight in a storm from Denver to McCook. (We won't get political, but it was Senator Ben Nelson airport after he pulled off the Cornhusker Kickback so a little upchuck may have been appropriate).

This area holds Merriams and Rio Grandes and apparently they interbreed to produce Hybrids.  You'd look in a tree to see semi copper tipped fans next to some that were white tipped.  You can tell in my pictures that my birds are not bright white or copper.

None of the locations we hunted had any birds that were call shy.  The different terrains and vegetation areas made us feel like we were on four different hunts as we each shot both of our birds together and photograghed and filmed everything.

After we got our Toms, it was off to Prairie Dog Hunting with the .22-250's.  Great trip and we highly recommend this outfitter for Deer, Turkey and Upland Bird Hunting.  We can't say enough about what a great experience it was.

This was another hunt we purchased at the SCI Convention in Reno.  You simply cannot put a price on physically meeting outfitters before booking a hunt with them.  In this, bidding on one of their hunts.

Hunt Nebraska Inc. exceeded all of our expectations and we will be doing a company corporate Pheasant Hunt with them in the near future.  We also had the benefit of seeing and climbing in most of their Whitetail Treestands as we were Turkey Hunting the same areas.  It's fantastic to preview and scout a potential Deer Hunting trip while you are picking up fresh sheds, looking at last year's rubs and getting a full view of where you will hunt ahead of time.  If you've ever walked into a guided or outfitted hunt blind, you'll appreciate what I am talking about.

Enjoy the photos.
