Bird numbers are down and pressure is up, Kansas is hardly the destination turkey state it once was. Taking anyone's word for saying bird numbers are good and pressure is low on public land nearly anywhere in the country is likely lying.
If you're dead set on hunting the state and concerned about having success pay to get on private.
I have no reason whatsoever to "lie" if that's what you were implying by my comment. From the area I hunt, I can spit into Kansas and I had good success this past Spring with good numbers of birds Obviously, your experience might be quite different from mine, but that doesn't mean that I am lying. I don't have a horse in this race, just trying to help the guy out. If he wants to pay to hunt, more power to him.
