Great pictures and an awesome story. Gotta love those farmers! We had a farmer come out in the field on us with his jeep and his family while we were working a gobbler! They were just taking a joy ride…ended up coming right up to us! I’m not complaining though…that farmer has been good to us for letting us hunt his property ! Anyway, Great job guys on going 3 for 3! 
Awesome hunt and details. Great pics too.
Do they have true merriams there, or hybrids, or some of each? That’s a fairly close jaunt to go hunt Nebraska, but like you said, seems like there was some pressure. Good job rising above the odds and filling out!

Congrats on your Nebraska hunt and thanks for sharing.
Make sure you get entered into the Turkey Contest.
nice pics and good story congrats on some pretty toms 
Thanks guys! I had heard prior to going out that there was possibly going to be some hybrids out there. We talked with the warden out there and he said the same. The two birds I put pictures up of were looked at by him and he said they were not the hybrids, however, the third that I didn’t get a picture of on here could have very possibly been a hybrid. The reservation itself receives alot of pressure throughout the season. But I have never seen so many birds in one area. Just driving around, you would see a gobbler out in a field every half-mile or so working a group of hens. It was an awesome sight to see and as far as the people go out there, they were very generous to us. We had no problems getting onto private ground as well as the large reservation acres.
Congrats to you and your buddies on a successful Merriam hunt! 
I got to get me one of those!
