Rombo Report post Posted August 14, 2020 My son’s Merriams from this spring to complete his Grand Slam and US (all from United States) Royal Slam. He harvested this bird in Unit 1 on the Junior hunt. Last year he harvested his Arizona Gould’s with a crossbow, an Osceola in central Florida, his Eastern in eastern Kansas and his Rio in central Kansas. Quite an achievement for an Eleven year old. I didn’t complete my first Royal until I was forty!! 10 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Although I've always wanted too. Now we plan moving north next summer so we will start chasing them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've actually only "really" turkey hunted once. It was a blast. Light rain, several times we snuck to within yards of elk. Had enough close calls with a couple toms. It was awesome.
