She is a lab and we believe black and tan hound. She is a cover buster but still needs to work on a few things.

We go to the southern central and Southwest part of the state but I think there are also quail in northwest Iowa as well.

My son and I went out in the wind last Friday and limited out. It was 20 to 30mph winds but the birds were grouped up and in the heavy cover. All in all a great day.Bitter cold is predicted all this next week so hopefully it warms back up a bit later.

A little private but mostly public. They are primarily in southern Iowa and a few up north.

My son his fiance and myself went south last weekend and found several coveys of quail and a few roosters and seen a bunch of hen pheasants also. We ended up with 10 quail and 3 roosters and had a great time. Allie "the lab" and Sissy "the lab/coon dog mix" did great. And the best part of the...

I just bought a pair of mossy oak fleece lined gloves and so far they are working for me and they arent heavy and cumberson. https://store.mossyoak.com/collections/hunting-accessories/products/mossy-oak-performance-fleece-glove-1?variant=40017245864131 I like the idea of putting a...

I have owned an older 1100 and an older 1187 and have had very few problems but I would think that Remington would stand behind their products.

I bought 6 boxs of 6s and usually I use an IC choke. I will sometimes put in a modified later in the season but I have noticed a lot of guys shoot a more open choke with the faster ammo.

I bought 4 boxs and will give it a try next season. Thanks for all the advice guys. I hope ammo will be more available soon but I am going to try and pick up what I can when I can.

I have noticed that a lot of guys recommend using a more open choke like IC with the faster loads and just wondering why? Thanks for the advice on the Kent shells also, it sounds like they are a great pheasant getter.

Anyone use this stuff? I'm thinking about ordering some 6 shot 2 3/4" but I have never used it before. I usually use prairie storm but its getting almost impossible to find.

Southern Iowa and northern Missouri quail are decimated. I bet numbers are down 50-75% from just a couple years ago. What do you think is the reason? Weather or habitat or predators or a combo of all 3???

We went down south last weekend and did some mixed bag hunting and ended the day with 2 roosters and 2 bobwhites. We only seen one good sized covey of quail and were able to get 2 out of it. Last year we were moving as many as 4 to 5 coveys a day hunting public area. Just curious what everyone...

You might try Jacobsons in Story City or scheels in Des Moines.

Apparently overhead passing shot. I missed 3 of those about 10 days ago.

I have hunted pheasants for close to 40 years and had never gotten a triple until 2 years ago then it happened twice, the first time took 4 shots as the last bird hit the ground running and I had to finish him, the second time the following year I took 3 shots and dropped 3 roosters. I had...

Im in central Iowa and I usually get between 20 to 30. Almost all public land with wild birds and I lose a few also. I try to get out at least once or twice a week when possible.

That is freaking awesome buddy!

We have hunted them from 9am clear thru 4pm but I learned from a biologist that it is not a good idea to break them up to late in the day as they need the covey to band together and stay warm so if you break them up to late in the day they may not get back together before nightfall. So to...
