I’m in western Ok, things look good here as of mid July. Looks like we’re about to get hot and dry here. But it’s been a great spring and summer so far. Im seeing and hearing lots of birds.

Great stuff. My things that worked. I got a go pro 11. I came back from the hunt I took it on wondering why I didn’t use it every time I got out of the truck.

Best since 2016, hasn’t been as good as 2016 was where I’m at. But it hasn’t been bad.

Bobs are bobs, I’ve hunted Nebraska, and Kansas. Brush and weeds. If it looks birdy hunt it if you can.

Just got back from a hunt in eastern Montana. I was impressed with the number of Huns. Pheasant and sharp tail numbers seemed about the same as last year. This was my fourth year going. My first year I never saw a hun. 2nd year I finally saw a covey and got 1 bird. Last year I saw multiple...

Arc Gis explorer is a phone app install it and search wiha it’ll have the Kansas map and show your position. That said Kansas wasn’t real good the last time I went . But I found birds so not a wash.

Very true, my main gun I’ve hunted with the last year is a Beretta a300. And I’ve been shooting my dads old Franchi 48 Al. Not expensive but not clunkers and the Franchi has sentimental value. Then if it’s a long haul or quail, I’ll take my 20 gauge over under. I’ve got my eye on a few really...

I definitely take a backup. I guess if I had a really expensive gun I’d take a rainy day gun too. But even if I was just going to Kansas which isn’t a long way for me, it’d still be terrible to waste that trip if I had gun issues. I’ve actually had a gun issue on a long trip. Thumb safety on an...

Fajitas made with whatever birds you’re hunting. Super easy, tasty and cheap.

I have one that was my dads. He never used anything else, that I saw. I’m sure before my time he did. It’s incredibly light, reliable and shoots good. It will kick obviously with heavy loads.

In western ok, I’ve seen some quail broods more than the last few years anyway. Keeping my fingers crossed.

I’m planning a Montana trip in October pheasant, Huns and sharps. All though by that time sharps are tough. I’ll hit Kansas in Nov, Dec. possibly Nebraska. The quail situation here in Ok is looking up. I’ve seen several broods. More than the last few years for sure. Anything can happen though...

Next year Oklahoma will charge a 100 olap , walk in, fee. It also gets you access to timberlands in the east. Will this be the start of a new trend for walk in states? Oklahoma isn’t the first state you think of for walk in areas. But it could still be the start. Any thoughts for or against?

I’ve hunted the last 7 years mostly just me my dog and my wife. She doesn’t hunt but saves me lots of steps by driving. You can’t just head out across any field, I’ve never had much luck in stalks. I’d rather hunt me and a dog and maybe 1 or 2 more. The big groups of walkers and blockers seems...

so hunting along roads is legal in Iowa?

i Grew up doing both. I loved deer hunting when I was younger. I was lucky to grow up on a farm with lots of quail Ive loved it since young too. I don’t deer hunt very much now. It’s barely hunting really, just sitting and waiting. I enjoy seeing deer, I’m just not invested enough anymore to sit...

I’ve cleaned with 1 wing, then kept them in an ice chest for 5 days. I wish the wing wasn’t on there. There has to be a lot of bacteria transfer. But they seemed fine when I got home. And I ate them without incident. As for best eating. The easiest to me is fajitas.

2016 I live by Sandy Sanders same scenario. Saw people from all over. Met a grandad, father and son who drove up from Dallas for the afternoon to “see all the quail”. 3 guys in a single cab no dogs. Big stock tank by one of the entrances had quail feathers about 2 inches deep about 10 foot...

I had a Mossberg 12 gauge for most of my life, dad gave it to me when I was about 13, I’m 52. About 10 years ago I got a stevens ou 555 20 gauge. I inherited a Remington 1100 . Then bought another. Recently inherited a Franchi Al 48. Then for this year I got a Beretta a300 at an auction...
