The World’s Largest Ball of Twine, and not much else, is in Cawker City, Kansas. This fact, while certainly interesting and impressive by itself, is not the only reason for visiting that part of the world. No sir or madam, this sleepy little town is a veritable hotbed of activity come pheasant season. For two years running, I have hunted the first week of pheasant season in Kansas with three of my friends. We drive out from Alabama with all of our equipment and our dogs, stay in the cheapest hotels we can find, and hunt walk-in access land. The birds are wild and wary, the days and miles are long, and we all enjoy every minute of it every year. I am just about to leave for my third such trip, and I thought I would post some of my notes from last year’s trip to whet everyone’s appetite for this year’s story.

Somehow I just knew that you’d make this trip. Hope you have as great a time as you usually do. Take care of yourself out there though. Remember, you’re a year older than you were last year.

You’re bound to be back by now, so let’s hear about the trip. Understand that it was very cold. Were you prepared???

I’m going to finish my notes from last year’s trip, and then I’ll organize and post the material from this year. See, that’s what we call a “tease” in the business.
