Whose season is generally going hot during the last week of April. I am going to try and plan a trip for my daughters April vacation. We have non hunterfriends that live in Northeastern Nebraska that could be a starting or ending point. I am thinking around that area we will find mostly hybrids. Looking for a merriam or rio since those are the farthest away for me. Any info will be appreciated, not a snob, lol. We will go to the best spot for that time frame. Thanks, Al Baker

I would like to drive so I can take our gear. My wife is a great driver. She made the round trip from NH to Nebraska and back on her own. We will fly if it is a time thing. We are in NH. Open to all doable trips

If you're driving and don't mind putting miles on I'd start in NE then head up to SD hit there then WY the drop down to KS catch a few Rios and head back up to NE Nebraska. You'll pass through Nebraska a couple times with 3 tags available there too you could bring home a pile of birds and a couple new subspecies under your belt as well.

Mo, Ks, Ne was a thought. Ne, SD were also an option. I won't have enough time to do it with my wife and daughter. We will only have about 10 days. Thinking of flying to Nebraska then renting an suv. Shipping al our gear to our friends in NE NEB

I know that area Neb is hybrids but lot birds if I had private to hunt I'd hunt them till killed 2 then head west to use my last tag in NW Neb for Merriam

I can't help it, there is just something about those little boogers that drives me crazy! Thank you, can't wait to see you again next year! We just got into Seward a few days ago and we are headed out on our second three day trip tomorrow....it's about to get super busy.

What defines a "trophy" Merriam's?
