Hello everyone. I am Leland from elwood IN. I am trying to meet my nephew in northwest Nebraska. My nephew has always wanted to chase a merriam. He is now stationed at fort Carson in Colorado springs and we only have a weekend to get it done. We are planning to hunt the pine ridge area. In your opinion is it possible to get on a bird possibly 2 in a weekend. We can hike in as far as we need. I can scout a day or two in advance but he is only allowed the weekend off for leave.
We will be there the second weekend in may. Is the pine ridge the best place to chase a merriam or should we be looking in another area. Is there any locals in the area that would like to show us around or even help scout a day or two in advance of him meeting us or even want to hunt with us? Any and I mean any helpful advice would be much appreciated emphasis on helpful though. Thanks Leland
Good luck in whatever you endeavor to do.
