All we need to do is hd on for one more week. Hopefully team 6 has Memorial Day BBQ's on their mind rather than turkeys

Team 6 has one hunter who has not got a bird, that has until the 31. In south central nebraska. This could be close.

I hope we can hold on to it. There is 2 other teams as well that can be a game changer for us too.. It will be a battle to the finish line with them.. I still thinking we will win this contest.. However as we just saw it could have been a blow to us with that bird team 6 had gotten if he never all ready had one...

Team 6 has yet another bird down.. I do not see that one as being a problem either. It will add to the total number of birds score though..

How do we look on total birds Phil? Are we still in the lead in that part of the contest as well?

Phil from Maine 05-23-2014 04:26 PM

Oh yes!! We are very strong in that part of it.. They will need a lot more birds than 2 or 3 to catch us on that one!!

We are at 1204., They might be hitting around 1050 right now with this last bird.. So we are still very strong in that spot.. I am still concerned with our best bird per hunter spot though.. I do believe it is going to be enough for the win.. Just keep the faith on that one..

Just wanted to say that we have an average of 72 for the best bird per hunter score.. I know that I have the smallest best bird as well with a 55.6.. I actually expected that as where I hunt up here there is no big farms. They are all field and woods turkeys so having a bird up here reaching a 55 is a big bird for most cases.. The biggest spurs tagged this year at the station I tag them at is mine so far this year.. But, I feel like a lot of you who have either tagged out or your season has ended.. I wish I could keep on hunting them now.. However I did great when there is still a lot of them up here that are trying to get their first bird still..


Also for currently being in the # 1 spot all the teams have their scope on us.. After all we are currently where they all want to be, and that feels great doesn't it guys!! I have to say I am proud of this team and all the effort we have all given to it! Way To Go!

It has been a great and fun year! I have really enjoyed this years contest. We have a great team.

Been out of town for the week.

A good recipe we use is to marinate the breast cut up in nuggets in 1 cup of red wine, 1/2 cup of soy, and 2 tablespoons of honey. Then wrap with bacon and add pepper, onions, grape tomatoes, and pineapple to make some great kebobs.

camokenny - do you have rio's?

Team 6 is awesome. I think there's something awful fishy about a 132 turkey. There should be an avian forensic analysis or something. Could be a case of sand baggin for glory.
