Thinking I want a CZ 612 field pump. I will have to call shops in Kansas City to actually hold one. Where would you start? Thanks.

Anyone seeing any doves? I am not seeing many.

Looking for a camera. Want to take pictures of dogs on point. 4X, 5X?

Kansas is burning. How is the dry weather affecting the birds? They have to be thirsty. Thanks.

Thought I would look for new WIHAs closer to Missouri. Drove around and all areas were grazed like my lawn. Finally found a property line with a little cover. Quail flushes. Dogs start pointing what appeared to be old scent. Made a short circle and on the way back, dog acts like another flushed...

How do you think the quail are doing this winter? Temperature has been very beneficial. Lots of rain. How is the rain affecting carryover? Thinking quail are doing well. Would like it to be more consistent next year.

I saw the wounded quail on the ground right where I marked it. The dogs were searching diligently 15 yards away. I went ahead and bent over to grab the quail. The quail gets up slowly and starts to fly away. Another shot puts it down for good. As far as my shooting is concerned, would you say I...

As I type this, there is a covey in/under my evergreen tree just a few feet away.

My new Benelli Vinci shoots so high, I have to float the bird. The barrel needs to be about six inches below the bird. I think if you have to float a quail or pheasant, the gun should be labeled a trap gun. My quest for a bird gun continues. Looking for an over/under that shoots fifty/fifty...

Coming to Kansas this week. If we were to get .25 inches of rain, how long before the roads would be passable for rear wheel drive pickups? .50 inches? Thanks

Yesterday, the quail I shot had an empty crop. Is it normal for the crop to be empty? I always thought quail ate all the time. Do they finished what's in their crops before they eat again? Took this bird at 10 am. What does an empty crop at 10 am tell me?

Is party hunting legal in your state? Thanks

I am a decent shot. However, I always miss one presentation, long, slightly quartering shots. Much like trap shots. I shot a round of trap years ago. I liked my score and went on to skeet. This year I went back to the trap field. It wasn't as easy as I first believed. On straightaway shots, I...

Anyone seeing any doves? They seem to be missing this year.

Saw a quail pair yesterday. No chicks seen. Couple questions. On warm days, do quail leave the nest? Seems like incubating eggs would not be necessary 100% of time during hot weather. Is the first hatch completely left on their own? Do the adults check on them? Do they stay near the nesting...

There has not been a wheat report since Sunday. Is the wheat in the northern counties harvested? Thanks.

Dewayne Bowe the GSP, not Dewayne Bowe the football player. Dewayne stayed in a pen before he came to me. At night, he does not want to get his paws wet so he poops on my porch. Tried to keep him a crate at night and monitor his business. Not working. Anyone have any feeding recommendations so...

Watching brother's chickens. Two great eggs everyday. Should I collect eggs everyday when the temp is in the 90s? Thanks.

Shoot pretty well on level ground. Struggle with hills and tree line shots. Have to use swing through more. Started shooting trap. My question is where you insert the gun. Say you were shooting quail swing through. Do you insert the gun two feet back, four feet, etc? Wouldn't be too concerned...

I used to hunt with a guy who never missed. He said he hardly ever leads a quail/pheasant. Focus on the head and pull the trigger. For years, I shot with one eye closed. Always too slow. Mainly shot at tail feathers. Many quail flew off with a leg dangling. Now that I use both eyes, I focus on...
