Yes I have. The area is wonderful to hunt but you have to remember that Merrimams are more like Eastern Turkeys. They like deep ravines and pines. The area around Chadron is a wonderful place to go. Check local Chamber for more information. With pre-planning you will have no trouble finding either public or private places to hunt-might cost you a dinner or so but will worth it.

Ok lol ,

Chadron is a nice place with rolling hills to cannon type mountains. I'm unsure of the directions as North east south and west like ,

It was around the 10 or so of April , I hunted the Pine ridge forest. Lots of birds and tons of area to travel. Also met up with a friend in Town that does a little guiding on the side and he took us to a place not far out of town in a river bottom. The hunt was short as 2 of us killed 4 birds in an hour and was headed back to Ontario in no time. We used all the same calls , boat paddle Box calls were good as volume was what you need at times. Suff can was good aswell. kind of a short story because the hunt didn't last long lol .. I have his name and number if your interested ...BT
