Got an offer I couldnt refuse from a good friend in Missouri to accompany him to Kansas for a short late season Turkey hunt. I left Thursday afternoon and made the 7 hr drive to his house. Left right from there and pulled into our spot on a walk in area at 2 am Friday morning.
I've been over there as late as Memorial day weekend and always brought home at least 1 bird.
We hunted hard, its all day hunting there and LOTS of walking in the WIHA's.
The birds were tough this year there as well. We had high winds the entire time, 40+ Friday and Sat. I worked some birds and had several unusual busts. A dog one time, an unseen hen another and a herd of cows another time. lol They really liked the decoy.
Sunday morning with a 12 hr ride waiting on me we gave it one more go deciding to sit til 7 am and then work our way back across the state as we came.
This bird came in silent and caught us goofing off, but he made the ride back to Indiana regardless.
After the smoke cleared I asked my buddy what time it was, he looked at his phone and laughed and showed it to me...7 am straight up!
