1 bird away.

7 years ago I decided to chase the turkey slam.
The eastern turkey has kicked my ass every year. Well this year he finally succumbed  to my barrel
. Also got my Rio last week. So hoping the merriums cooperate now

Wow what a great bird.  Giant fan of feathers.  What did the spurs look like?

[Skyvalhunter]

So what are you doing on Hunt Wa when you should be out chasing the slam?

[Karl Blanchard]

Shoot smooth sailing from here man. The Merriam is the easiest out of the bunch and a full month to do it! Good luck!

Congrats!  I was trying for 5 outings so far,  but will have to postpone easterns to get some family hunting in on Merriams and bear.

Nice bird! I just finished the Wa slam on thursday, all with archery. The merriams should be a slam dunk for you. Smart thinking, (saving the easiest bird for last).

[Wanttohuntmore]

Good job and great video!  In your Eastern quest, have you found multiple locations with birds?  I've found a half dozen but only feel one is huntable.  I'm scared they won't be their next year, shot out or changing locations.   Hoping to hear there are more huntable locations than I realize.
