2011 Kansas Turkey

This past weekend was the Kansas archery opener. Fellow Ameristep Pro-Staffer Rodney Evans and I were able to connect on some nice longbeards, which made for some awesome video footage!

On the morning of my hunt, the birds were grouped up with 10 strutters and a countless number of hens and jakes. We were able to get two of the longbeards to break away from the group and they came running in on a string, strutting the last 20 yards into the decoys for a 5 yard shot.


Rodney's bird came in from behind the blind and flew across a creek into a cut bean field with 4 other toms. They put on a show at 30 yards before Rodney was able to make a clean shot on one of the strutters.

Now it's time to break out the shotgun and take my 10 year old son out after his first longbeard. We're keeping our fingers crossed that the weather and birds will continue to cooperate! Hopefully everyone else will have some luck and a successful season. Have fun and hunt safe!
