Nebraska offers a unique variety of upland
hunting opportunities.
The ultimate challenge? Bringing home a mixed
bag of birds. Can you do it?
Only one way to fi nd out.
S
tarting this fall, the Nebraska
Game and Parks Commission,
along with Pheasants Forever
and Quail Forever, introduced the
Nebraska Upland Slam. The concept
is simple: harvest four birds – northern
bobwhite quail, ring-necked pheasant,
greater prairie-chicken and a sharp-
tailed grouse – in Nebraska for an
official certificate, pin, bragging rights
and the chance to win prizes, including
Bob St. Pierre of Pheasants Forever
looks over a rooster pheasant he shot in
southwestern Nebraska.
