Title: Nebraska Merrians
Post by: R.W. Mackey on April 14, 2016, 08:54:49 PM
  My first trip for Merrians, good start, beautiful country, nice folks and a few birds. Most of the grown
Birds were henned up, lots of jakes to keep you company. Finally found a couple of grown birds without hens.
A few pics from the trip.

Congrats!!
I've only made the trip to the Pine Ridge once, in 2011.
Beautiful country.
Did you find plenty of timber to hunt, after that big fire a few years ago?

  There were areas that had been burned badly but also areas that were not touched. Not hard to find some good hunting land.

Awesome place, I would love to hunt there. Congrats on the hunt, enjoy and take lots of pictures

Was that a DIY public hunt or an outfitter?

Heading for west central NE 4/21 - 4/26.  Never hunted turkeys outside of Michigan and really looking forward to NE.  Your pics got me even more excited (if that's possible).  Nice job.
