Had a great trip to Kansas with my son, this was his first out of state turkey hunt. The hunting was a little tougher due to lower number of birds in the area we were in and the weather (wind 25 plus mph and rain). But we stayed at it, I took a jake the second day. (A jake you say) the only reason for that was when 4 jakes came in and my son shot at one with his bow hitting and knocking it down, so I then swing on one of the other jakes killing it so that we could double up and him taking a bird with his bow. The bird that he hit jumps up and runs off with the other two birds remaining. we searched for the bird to no avail. The last day we hunted I called in one hen and tom, my son took that bird. within 20 mins We had 2 more jakes and another long beard in front of us. I told my son to take the long beard so then could get his first double. by then the wind was up to 35 + mph winds and didnt call any more in.. Thanks for looking...

Schall... They are Rio's. You have to go to the very south west corner county to get into the Merriams. We were hunting about 2/3rds across the state. ( Larned Kansas) I hope to get that done some day.
