Have a safe hunt
 

Wow, that is pretty exciting.....hope you have an enjoyable, successful, and memorable hunt for a great Kansas whitetail...keep us posted with pics when you get back...good luck and safe hunting

Just got back from doing some public land turkey hunting around Hays, KS. Hunted Natoma and Hill City, KS. Had never been to Kansas before. Awesome landscape. Saw a lot of deer too.

Great news from Kansas
 

That sounds good for Geauxtigers1421....lots of deer and great country. Nothin gets any better. How did the turkey hunt go?

Had a great time. First morning I killed one with 10 1/4" beard and 3/4" spurs. Called one in for my buddy that afternoon and he shot right over his head. Next day was tough we couldn't get them to cooperate. Last day I was just trying to get my buddy one but winds were blowing 40mph. Couldn't make it happen. Saw tons of turkeys and had a great time. Be back next year for sure.

If yall ever have a chance to go pheasant hunting in Kansas I highly reccomend to go. Did that once for a week and it was awesome!

I'm gonna try and do that this fall. We saw a few roosters while we were there. Beautiful bird.

Cheers to a great trip!!
 

Sounds like a wicked trip....real nice Tom you got. I only had turkey meat once and it was awesome, gotta do a turkey hunt some day.

Sounds like you had a great trip!! You have any pictures of the bird? I'd love to see them!

I've always wanted to go pheasant hunting and sage grouse hunting! Definitely going to have to go sometime! Got my Arkansas duck trip out the way last year, my Kansas deer this, planning on caribou next, then probably pheasant! Gonna have to see how everything goes though! Have any pictures?

Great job with getting everything done on your bucket list...where does the black bear hunt fit into everything...lol

I've hunted pheasant in nebraska and south Dakota. I freakin loved it. SD was stupid.

I will try to dig up some pics. Its been a while.

Haha well I'm only 17 so I've got plenty of time! Never really thought of bear hunting!

Stupid as in good or stupid as in bad? Haha

My good friend Tim (guy on the right) and another guy killed these either today or yesterday in Alberta, Canada.

Cheers to them
 

Now you didn't have to go and show me that, we don't have a spring hunt here and I have to wait till September....lol

Those are 2 nice lookin bruins for sure...nothing like a successful, safe hunt...great job!!!

CBB, could you post a link to your site please?

His first kill with a bow.

Jeez, the one on the right is a monster!

You don't know what you're missing but at 17 years old you got lots of time in ya yet....great to hear young men like yourself so passionate about this great sport we call hunting....keep up the great work!!

Cheers and safe hunting

Nothing better than being outdoors! This years trip is my senior trip but Every year I save up my summer workings and spend it all on a hunting trip or hunting gear later in the year. Lol
I don't know anyone who has been bear hunting so ive never really considered it!

Here ya go.

Sorry for the multiple posts, had some difficulties!
Got any of those up there? My dad sent that to me in an email. If probably have a heart attack if I ever saw one that big!

Thanks for the pictures. That's a great bird! Congrats!

Nice bird.

I've seen pictures of that bear before. It is definitely a monster. The story I read said they were calling for elk and it rushed in on them.

Yep, that's what I read also. Supposedly It was 5 feet away from the caller when the shooter saw it. Took 5 shots according to the email

Great job
 

That is even better, first with a bow. Bear had to be within 20 yards tops and breathin down his throat...great job for a first timer. There is nothing better than black bear hunting

My site is www.blackbearoutfitters.ca and my facebook page is Canadian Black Bear Outfitters

Cheers and safe hunting

Wowzers
 

Don't worry, I'd have a heart attack too...I am an outfitter for Black Bears only and believe me, they don't get that big. A nice size Black Bear here will go 300 lbs with the average size being between the 200-250 range. Here is a pic of 1 that would be in the 300 lb range.

Smiles tell a million stories
 

Great job guys, that is a great lookin gobbler.

Stupid as in pheasants everywhere. We would walk these long standing corn strips about 500 yards long and 30 yards wide in the middle of a cut corn field. If you were blocking at the end you couldn't load your gun fast enough. Also we drove a 180 class buck out of one strip. I know cuz the guy that lives up there killed it the next week.

You must have been on a preserve or something as I have hunted pheasant (cocks only, hens are illegal here in Nova Scotia, Canada) with a German Short Hair and they certainly were not easy to find. We hunted grain and corn fields and the dog, he was a top notch performer, found them ok but the wild birds were hard to raise once he went on point. We pretty much had to kick the bird in the air to get a shot. We always knew there were lots where we hunted and if not for the dog we would have been hard pressed to get 1. It sounds more like you were raising huns (hungarian partridge) as there are about a dozen or so of them in a cubby. I know there are preserves here which offer hunts for pheasants and it's nothing to get your limit in a day as they are raised by the owners of the preserves.

did you go with an outfitter. Are do you know any good ones there

I went with a friend and his dad who is originally from the area. Knows a guy that puts them up in his climate controlled barn every year.
