Merriam's Spring Turkey Hunt - Steve Schumacher

 
Merriam's Spring Turkey Hunt - 402-304-1192I drove 1,200 miles from Ohio to hunt Merriam Turkeys in Nebraska with Scott Croner.  The trip proved to be one of the best hunting decision I ever made.  

I was able to arrive at Uncle Buck's Lodge by noon on the day before my scheduled three day hunt.  Since the previous hunters had already tagged out and the weather forecast for the next few days wasn't good,  Scott told me to grab my gear and off we went.   An hour later I had my trophy Merriam.  Fortunately I have a good heart as this bird was taken at 6 yards.    The next day, in a snow blizzard and 30 mile per hour winds we navigated a long stalk on a trophy Rio Grand Turkey which I harvested at 35 yards.

Scott Croner is second to none, when it comes to turkey hunting.   If you listen to what he tells you in preparing for and during the hunt, you will kill birds.  Croner enhances the hunt with his knowledge and enthusiasm for turkey hunting.  He understands and shares in the excitement and the importance of your hunt.  

With the pending bad weather, I  was pleased to be tagged out on the first scheduled day of my hunt by 11:00 am, with two trophy birds.  Merriam's Spring Turkey Hunt - 402-304-1192

Not only was it a great hunt, but the accommodations and hospitality at Uncle Bucks Lodge was first class.   The food was fabulous and I even got to check and feed cattle with (Walt) the owner of the ranch.

Not regrets on this trip!   I highly recommended this hunt.

Go prepared and be ready!   It can be fast and furious.

Francis McLaughlin On HIs Way To A Grand Slam With A Merriam's Gobbler

I would like to thank the Nebraska Hunting Company for his help in getting me a Merriam's turkey.  Scott is totally committed to getting you a turkey.  He is focused on hunting and will put you on birds.  For me this is the third leg of a Grand slam, now only needing the Osceola.  Another group hunting while I was in Nebraska completed 3 grand slams!  One needed a Merriam's, the other two needed a Merriam's and a Rio!

Thanks to Nebraska Hunting Company for my Merriam's and awesome hunting memories.  Thanks to Marilyn and Walt for the hospitality and wonderful accommodations at Uncle Buck's Lodge.

Merriam's Turkey Hunting Is For Everyone


"My trip to Nebraska to hunt turkeys with Scott Croner in May 2010 turned out to be one of the greatest hunting trips I have taken. The accommodations where excellent and Scott's knowledge and abilities made this trip memorable. Scott is the hardest working guide I have ever encountered, and his drive to provide a successful and enjoyable hunt is second to none. Scott thanks again for the great hunt and look forward to hunting with you again."

Mueller Recommends Scott Croner Both Personally and Professionally

It’s been my pleasure, as member of Nebraska Hunting Company Hunting Club, to have frequent encounters, over the last two years, with Scott Croner. Thanks to his assistance and advice—I’ve had TWO DREAM SEASONS! The Club has a diverse membership of military and civilian personnel, and under Scott’s leadership, it all works together as one unified group, even to the point of assisting other customers. Scott epitomizes the very best in an outfitter and guide! When he tells you what equipment you need, he’s right on the mark; and when he tells you where to look for a particular type of game, believe me that’s where you’ll find it! Scott truly likes people and works well with everyone, especially kids and others requiring a little extra help, ensuring that one and all have a great hunting experience. One that is as pleasurable, comfortable, safe, and successful. I don’t know of single person that has gone away dissatisfied!
Scott is a hard working individual, and a man of the utmost integrity dedicating himself to ensuring his customers receive the best value for their dollar and have a safe, successful hunt. He judicially safeguards the environment and works diligently with land owners to ensure everyone has a win-win experience! On the occasions that I met landowners, when with Scott, they treated us like family. Scott is the type of person that people are drawn to and instantly trust—in my experience, this trust is well founded! During the time I have known him, Scott has extended himself far above and beyond what anyone could ever expect, and it’s my privilege to say I know and have hunted with him. I call him “My Friend”!

If you want a really great hunt and singularly satisfying outdoor experience, call Scott!

Sincerely,
Jim Mueller
THE HAPPY HUNTER!

Ellis Scores On A Big 8 "Nebraska Trophy Whitetail" With Scott Croner And The Nebraska Hunting Company


After going Merriam's turkey hunting with Scott Croner in May and tagging out I knew I had to go on a deer hunt with him when the opportunity came up. I booked my deer hunt for muzzleloader season the second week in December. After talking to Scott several times on the phone before I arrived I was very excited about what he was telling me he had been seeing. I arrived in Nebraska City mid afternoon and was greeted by Scott. He took me to a spot on the edge of a soybean field and said he had been seeing a 140-150 class buck in the area along with some 130 class bucks. Two hours later I caught a glimpse of a big buck walking a ridge across from me. I grunted and he turned and walked right towards me. I guess buck fever set in because I made a bad shot and hit him in the gut. Scott and I blood trailed him for a little while that evening but decided to back out when we ran out of blood and lost light. The next morning I was happy to see Scott had two other people with him to help us find the deer. It took us about an hour and we found him the biggest buck I've ever taken a 144" 8-pointer. I've hunted with 6 different outfitters in my life and Scott Croner is the best I have hunted with. I already have a deer hunt booked for next deer season and plan on booking many more.

John Elashik - Dreams of Nebraska Merriam's Turkeys

Scott,

I wanted to say Thank You for everything you did for my dad and me to make such a memorable hunt. Your knowledge, experience and willingness to get on turkeys is second to none. If someone would have told me I would be getting charged by huge Tom at 20 yards once he saw the fan you carry, I would have called them a liar. It is an experience and memory my dad and I will have for a lifetime. Also, we were both amazed on the amount of turkey we saw. We never thought we would see over 200 birds in 2 days. We are already counting down the days to next years hunt!

Pheasant Hunting Equipment - Checklist



Pheasant Hunting - Clothing

The fields you'll be walking through are not manicured, they have stickers, briars and some wet spots. Designer jeans will not survive, but if your kids need them ripped up we can oblige. A sturdy canvas or hunting trouser is what you want. You will see many hunters wearing trousers with a reinforced canvas front and they seem to work well. I have worn tennis shoes while hunting; however, the price you pay are wet feet with stickers in them and usually socks filled with seeds and trash. Better to have a pair of low boots that are well broken in.

This is a social event for some groups, you know best if you need to keep up with the Jones. Your guides will be wearing walking boots, jeans, flannel and a jacket dependent on the day. Some type of orange clothing is required during hunting; this may be a hat, vest or shirt. Temperatures range from 40-70f during the day; evenings the temp drops to freezing some nights. A shirt or sweat shirt combined with a light jacket allows you to adjust layers as the temperature changes.

Shooting glasses are recommended. They protect your eyes from brush, accidents and, depending on the color, can at times enable you to pick up the bird faster.

Bring ear plugs or muffs. You may not want or wear them during hunting, but most people do some target shooting in the morning or evening.

Bring a quality shears or scissors if you intend to clean birds-it helps. Also, plastic bags if you're transporting the birds.

Below are some check lists that people have used in the past.

Nebraska Merriam's Mania With Scott Croner And The Nebraska Hunting Company By Brandon Wikman

Realtree: Community: Nebraska Merriam's Mania: "Nebraska Merriam's Mania

By Brandon Wikman, Bass Pro NGX Team

The rumors tucked away in the Sand Hills of central Nebraska hold more truth than told. Deep in this picturesque valley of cedars, sand and lofty hills, is a sought after secret of the mystical Merriam’s turkey.

Plenty of the country hunted was open, but the birds have a propensity to find and use available cover to their advantage.
The time-crazy world hasn't changed the background of the old ranch town I stayed at. As I passed through the hundred yard main street strip of not-a-whole-lot, I soon became familiarized of what the little town was known for from the camouflage jackets and cowboy hats worn by the locals. I marveled at cattle ranchers stringing barbed-wire fence by hand for miles, while others admired their massive prairie burns. I felt as if I were taken back to the cowboy days and imagined the covered wagons trekking across the desolate land. Sod houses from the 1800's still stood amongst the canyons and withheld their enduring beauty throughout years of erosion.
THE GRAND QUEST
Although, the scenery and generalization of the Sand Hills inspired my historic inner-feelings, I was there to conquer the last species of turkey for my Grand Slam quest and face the secrets head-to-head with Nebraska Hunting Company, a nationally acclaimed outfitter from the heart of Nebraska."
