    Good quail hunt

    From what I saw and heard they are. Various members of my wife’s family. 3 years ago one added a second corner to a big half circle. This last year a couple others added a second and third corner to a big full circle and a third and fourth corner to each of a couple of small circles. They and...

    Good quail hunt

    I’m the same way a pheasant guy. Sat. We got into 5 coveys I think and another one Sunday. One covey had to be 50 birds and another one close to it. I think this is the best year I’ve seen for quail in the areas I hunt since when the population exploded coming out the last drought in 14, 15. I’m...

    Loosing birds

    We lost a bird today, but made some tough ones this weekend that could also have been easily lost. If at the end of the year I lose 1 out of 8 or even 1 out of 10 I want to do better. I’ve started trying to treat every bird like it’s the only bird I’m going to get to shoot today. The dogs were...

    This was a good tip, and one I hadn't ever heard before

    In western Ks they’ll run water on green wheat in Dec. in a dry fall that’s where they will be close to. One year I watched a group of hawks dive bombing three or four roosters that were standing under the sprinkler getting drinks.

    Confusing fat?

    I think that it’s. Looking at it in the reading room. Diet high in beta carotene will change the color of fat to yellow. Greens are a good source. I wonder maybe if some of its winter wheat.

    Shot Variety

    I think you get more going aways late season. Or maybe it just feels that way after toteing the gun half a day and whiffing twice.

    Pheasant Fest 2025 KC

    I think Matt is right it was Jan 29 in 2011. I don’t know if I’ll make it. It could be fun to do it once. We use to have an outdoor show and I would go every year. Towards the end it had deteriorated so bad that’s it has kind of soured me to idea of going to another one.

    F150

    Apple and oranges I’m sure. But my nephew has a ford ranger hybrid. Here in Kansas in the flatlands he says being a hybrid doesn’t really do much for fuel mileage on the highway. He took it on vacation in Colorado this summer. , where all that up and down keeps it charged. He said his fuel...

    Small Munsterlander

    I believe the city of Wichita passed an ordinance requiring dogs to be microchipped. I have one that is and one that isn’t. That’s pushing it too far.

    Sub-Zero Temps Worth The Trip?

    I hear that too. Somebody will tell you that there millions of pheasants released in SD every year. They’ll tell you they know its a fact cause such and such just sold 10 thousand to Sd and told them about it. I hear it all the time from Kansas guys . I’m sure the number is inflated some but...

    Nebraskas all right I don’t see a lot of difference between it and Kansas. I think Nebraskans like to keep it hush.

    End of shooting hours,? for evening hunters

    I must be old. I like to get some driving in before the sun goes down. I will hunt chickens until the very last minute of the day and then slide out.
