Summer Time Cleanup

Dave Davies — Tue, 17 Aug 2010 18:03:30 +0000

Well hot is not the word to describe this summer, unbearable is a better choice of words. We have been working on the lodge and grounds this summer trying to get ready for Fall and this years bow hunt. All the feeders have made it through the various wind storms and heavy rains that have blanketed the local area. We are looking at getting a pond made and also starting a controlled shooting area for Pheasant and Quail shooting. If all goes to plan we will be offering upland bird hunts as soon as September. The Lodge continues to take bookings for long term and short term stays and we are looking forward to November when the Wild Addiction’s pro staff and Mr Tim Roller will stay at the lodge for a November deer hunt. They will be filming their hunts for an upcoming episode on Tim’s TV show. Stay tuned and stay safe

New Friends

Dave Davies — Thu, 20 May 2010 17:38:02 +0000

Dick and James Maupin of Colorado Springs Colorado have made Abilene Outdoor Adventures a new springtime destination. The men had four chances at birds but as we all know it does not always work out. They enjoyed good weather and some good food but the turkeys gained the upper hand this year. We look forward to their return trip next year and wish them good luck the rest of the year. Turkey season is quickly coming to close for this year. A few more trips out and then time to get ready for the up coming deer season. Stay safe everyone.

New Turkey Hunter unveiled

Dave Davies — Wed, 12 May 2010 20:14:10 +0000

John and Josh Barthel both became turkey hunters virtually over night at Abilene Outdoor Adventures. Josh was a lucky winner of a free Turkey hunt that was awarded at the Great Northwest Sports Show in Minneapolis Mn back in March. And Josh made the most of his time here by bagging this nice Eastern Gobbler on May 8th 2010. They hunted three days here in Kansas and Went home with two turkeys. Josh also known as the golden boy bagged a nice Jake on his second day out. They stayed at the lodge and hunted hard for three days. We look forward to seeing both John and Josh in the future.

Dave Davies — Fri, 23 Apr 2010 19:39:24 +0000

Turkey season is now in full swing, after a slow start the birds are starting to move a bit more. We have had three birds taken as of this last week. Brad Morris of Magnus Broadheads harvested a nice Eastern on April 9th using the magnus broadhead system and recorded some nice action on camera. John Afolter of Afton Minnesota also tagged out with his two birds on April 15th and 16th. You can see the birds harvested by clicking on photos here. Deer season will be open before you know it. If harvesting a nice Kansas buck in either units 8,9,14 is of interest to you look us up we will be more than happy to get you in position for that bow kill of a lifetime. The lodge is ready and tags will be awarded soon give us a call.

Take Care and be SAFE!

Kansas Fur Harvestor Rhonde

Dave Davies — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 23:57:54 +0000

The Kansas Fur Harvestor Rhondy was held October 3rd, 4th and 5th. Abilene Outdoor Adventures made a trip down to Yates Center to visit with some trapping friends. Kirk Miller of Possum Creek Control was there doing what he does best. Educating Kansas Trappers! Kirk knows his stuff when it comes to coyotes and cats! Visit his site if you want to know more. http://possumcreekcontrol.embarqspace.com/ Kirk put a whole lot of time and effort into the show this year and gave away many a door prize to a bunch of Kansas kids. The weather is turning cold early and the Deer are starting to move more frequently during daylight so I will be posting new pictures and hopefully getting a little bow hunting done myself. If you have any questions about Abilene Outdoor Adventures please contact me through the website.

Best of luck this season!

Dave Davies — Mon, 28 Sep 2009 23:28:29 +0000

Abilene Outdoor Adventures made the trip to Guthrie Oklahoma this last weekend and met some really quality people. Take Oliver Lurry owner of Oklahoma Territory Bows. Oliver has some real quality for those traditional archers out there. All of his bows are hand made and would really add some challenge to your next Kansas Bow hunt. If you would like some information about Oliver’s Bows he can be reached at 405-382-3216. Abilene Outdoor Adventures will be heading to Yates Center Kansas this Saturday the 4th of October to attend the Kansas Furharvesters Rhondy. This event will feature vendors and seminars to teach all aspects of Kansas predator trapping. Abilene predator trapping will be represented at the roundup by the Abilene Outdoor Adventures team an we will have a report from that event as well.
