Unlike many parts of Nebraska that contain Rio / Merriam’s hydrids, these birds in northwest Nebraska are pure strain Merriam’s.
Hunting is conducted on private ranches that have seen little turkey hunting pressure. This area has rolling hills, open prairie, ag land, cottonwoods and pines which make for perfect Merriam’s habitat.
Can be done unguided or guided. Unguided hunters will be given property maps, shown property boundaries and places where birds roost, strut and travel. Hunters then hunt on their own. Guided hunts are normally 2 hunters per guide but can be done 1 guide per hunter also. Hunters may do their own calling or rely on the guide to do the calling.
Both archery and shotgun hunts are held. The best hunting is typically April 20 through May. No jakes may be harvested - adult birds only.
Licenses are available over-the-counter or online. Cost is $91 per tag plus a $20 habitat stamp. Hunter Education Certification is required for everyone age 12 through 29. Youth hunters under the age of 12 can hunt without a Hunter Education Certificate but must be accompanied by a licensed hunter 19 years of age or older. The youth turkey license is only $6 plus the $20 habitat stamp.
