your right good catch...how have you been..did you get a deer?
no deer for me. hunted the farm on alpowa ridge and hunted a couple days in the wilderness off of the 40 rd with no shooters found. had a great time though, can't complain. just looking forward to the turkeys now.

Mention the NWTF when you call Benny's in Colville. Andy Hydorn runs it and he is also the Pres of the Upper Columbia Gobblers Chapter, He will give you a good deal on a room and if you are having a hard time finding Bird's he might even sneak you onto his ranch
Nice, I will have to do that.

Last year harvested a nice three year old hybrid (Eastern/Rio) hunting private land semi-guided in Northeastern Kansas. Great turkey hunting property and general area. In Kansas last year it was like yelp yelp gobble.....yelp yelp yelp gobble to a box call, then silence (no more answers to more yelps, cutts etc., so I quit calling) ............. after 10 minutes the ole lone tom suddenly came in quiet and then shied away from the hen decoy to make it a long shot! I was hunting the 4th week of the Kansas season. Call shy and decoy shy birds but the toms were not henned up.

I am looking for Rios to begin the season. Then see what I can do about some Merriams.
Last year the snow was still deep around Spokane in April and so no Merriams.
This one rancher south of Colville had turkeys everywhere a few years back, but after inviting everybody he could find for several years now, the turkeys got the hint and now leave him alone.

Got on 5 toms last year and had a shot at 1 that I goofed. He was on a hill and right as I shot he stepped to my left and down the hill and I shot up and to the right of him...
