After spending time in utah, wyoming, idaho, and Montana we finally made it to south dakota yesterday afternoon. Saw a ton of birds at daylight this morning...tough to hear them over all the rooster ring necks tho. More travel and scouting today. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

Danny, Danny, Danny

we got the same info several weeks back looking at leasing 100 acres in ny. said at the 20 year date re-up or return land to what it was.... need to do a whole lot more investigating when I get back. seems too good to be true, if everything seems legit we will give all the paperwork to the lawyer to investigate further.

Visited antelope island today. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

terrain is certainly an issue nicky, I really liked the are around the platte river, big fields, good tree cover along the river, tons of pothole water with trees around them and most important some pretty friendly folks. should be headed back east about tuesday and hope to shack up in western nebraska tuesday night and put some more time in there and then decide if I am gonna swing north and hit south dakota on the way back to ny. so far have seen little sign of turkeys here in utah, some beautiful country here around the great salt lake and would love the challenge of hunting a small population in the mountains but the extra 500 miles is a stickler for me.... oh well ya only live once so might as well spend it chasing turkeys!

wally world, get your gun, shells, tags, and butterball all in 1 stop.

yeahbut when ya touch off the mag 12 in the meat isle at wegmans there is just so much paperwork to deal with. lol

I think I have reached the end of the trail. Not climbing that I will drive around to the other side. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

just as bad as still being on ny turkey time in ogdon utah. there is not a thing going on here at 130 am.

made it as far as utah. there aint nuttin but dirt and stone in wyoming, well antelope and turkeys. saw 1 elk in utah. wny, going to do more scouting in nebraska, maybe hit south dakota, more in iowa and indy. got a buddy in ky and ohio so while still scouting I am going to spend more time in states I don't have the contacts in. its funny you mentioned the spurs, i was thinking the same thing this morning, its gonna be a real change taking the first full fan that I call in. not sure on timing yet, will be a multi state planned trip and depending on success would not hesitate to add a state or 2 to the list. will have to see how the rest of the scouting goes, hope to make this trip next spring, may or may not be able to do it since we are supposed to go on a texas rio hunt next spring,,,, of course isn't nebraska on the way back from texas to ny? a couple lessons today;;; when small yellow plane comes in low,,, take cover! i got crop dusted this morning!! don't waste your time stopping at the sidney nebraska cabela's store, for being the headquarters location it was a real disappointment! we stopped for fuel and decided to do a quick check to see if we would add it to the stop list on our return, took 5 minutes to walk through the main store! needless to say its not on the stop list.

No joke jm we have seen close to 200 lopes 7 elk and just saw a flock of turkeys pushing 150 birds. Still snow in the mountains and behind the massive snowfence they have built along the interstate. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

Just hit wyoming, dad gum antelope are everywhere. Have seen some big flocks of merriams (merrimams as the farmer in nebraska calls them) Need a 5000.00 camera and lens to get pics out here, there is a whole Lotta nothing but open land. Critters look like dots till I put the glasses on them. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

Hit paydirt along the Platte river. Saw tons of birds met some good folks. Gained some very useful prehung info that would of added to during trip costs.... I need to buy a kayak.....too old to be swimming a river to get on the gobblers side. The one farmers reply to my question of property line was...drive down this road another 5 miles till ya get to crossroads that's my line from the river to there and my brother owns the other side of the river.[emoji106] Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

Yes the seasons are closed. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

1 setting in a tree 300 yrds from me. Will be time to move along shortly, lots of fields to check before it gets too hot.

Not sure yet tf, may end up in Wyoming someone I know says they are a nuisance there. No hunting this trip just prep for next season.. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

The birds are singing this morning have not heard a gobble yet but still fairly dark out. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

Finally got to nebraska. Iowa seems better turkey habitat and sightings on the west side of the state. Got to nebraska too late to do any scouting so they will have to wait till the morning. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

Made it to Ohio for daylight. Satellite and top scouting was good once. I put eyes on the property and even saw and heard birds. Hoping to hit 1 spot in Indiana and maybe make Iowa before dark. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

leaving on a turkey scouting trip to nebraska in the morning, may even go as far as wyoming. then when I get back will be getting the boat in the water, try to get caught up on work and then right into hay season..... looking like a good yield here this year hope to get back up towards 6000 bales here, my hay in pa is looking banner this year and should not have any problems getting 3000 bales there. at some point I need to at least get the new duck/perch boat in the water or at least get it painted and the removable blind rigged up, I bought it a couple months ago, brought it to a buddies barn put it in there and haven't seen it yet. want to do a ton of work to it for duck hunting but have been a tad busy lately.

just a quick note to say its always good to have more than 1 plan in the morning!

congrats WNY nice bird and hooks
