Just got back from Nebraska and the best turkey hunt I have ever been on. The birds were hot and plentiful and our hunting guide "Buck" Jones, aka Big Bird Down!! was awesome and truly runs a A+++ hunting camp. Put the smack down on two beautiful birds, a 18 pound Hybrid Eastern/Merriam tom with double beards (10 inches and 6 inches) and then the next harvest a beautiful 21 pound 4 ounce Merriam's with a ten inch beard. The trip there and back and of course the hunting was absolutely fantastic and a ton of fun. P.S. My Buck Wild hat is certainly a lucky charm!! i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll198/HunterAF64/Hunting/SN850113.jpgi288.photobucket.com/albums/ll198/HunterAF64/Hunting/SN850122.jpg

What time we had for sure. And what a group of Maryland based hunters, aka "Maryland Smack Down". It was a pleasure for sure.
