Hello guys,from what i've seen this is a great site.I've been doing some searching looking for info on kanas pheasant hunting,and looks like i've found what I was looking for :)My in-laws moved to wichita about a year and a half ago.My F.I.L. does not do much hunting but did do some pheasant hunting back here in mi.years ago.Well, they want us to come out for a visit around x-mas time and I figured while I was out there,i'd try to do some bird hunting.So i've got a few ?'s for ya.Is there much public hunting ground with-in 1-1 1/2hrs of wichita?Do we stand much of a chance of being allowed on some private property by knocking on some doors and asking?Is it even worth pheasant hunting in that area? (keep in mind that a guy can hunt hard all season in mi.and be lucky to take 8-10 birds)Probey be just my F.I.L and I along with my beagle (he will run pheasant,if I can keep him off the rabbits long enough lol!!)So what do you guys think,do we stand a very good chance of putting-up a few birds?Thanks for any advice/tips you can offer.

I knew a guy like that in Kansas too, couldn't hit the broad side of the barn.

Wichita can be a good base for chasing pheasants in Kansas. Prairie Drifter is doing wonderful work at Byron Walker Wildlife Area, which is west of Kingman or about an hour west of Wichita. From Wichita you can go west or NW a couple hours and start getting into some decent pheasant numbers.

Good luck.

The Kansas walk in hunting atlas is online and downloadable at the KDWP website. That atlas will show you where all the more than 1.1 million acres of walk in land is located.

People in the country will often let you hunt, if you can find someone to ask in Kansas's very sparsely populated rural areas.

Have fun hunting.
