They seem to be using the same/similar queue system as Idaho did the last few years. Yet they are only going through about 30-40 spots in line per minute. At this rate it's going to take hours to get through the line. 10,000 total tags. I started at spot 3,750. We are only down to 3,540 about 10 minutes in. Looks like it will sell out in the next couple hours. If you wanted a Nebraska turkey tag, I'd get in line right now.

I was about the same number as you in the queue yesterday and had a tag about 40 minutes into it. I thought it went reasonably quick and was glad to grab a tag. Will be my first trip to NE for turkey, but was up there in 2020 in the far NW corner chasing antelope. Something to look forward to for this spring.
Yeah, getting the spring turkey tag kinda scratches that itch to be able to "draw" or get a tag during application season. It's also a great breakup to the late winter early spring doldrums to be able to take a 3-4 day hunting trip somewhere out of state.
All you guys coming up here for Spring Turkey, remember to tip your waitress. The small towns have great Mom and Pop hotels to stay at. Remember to talk to the locals, you have a great change of getting private land. Farmers up here hate turkey, they want them gone. Plus shoot a few Coyotes while you are here. Tell the land owner you shot a C-dog and you have a place for life to hunt on.
