i am heading out to kansas this weekend. i have hunted pheasants in mi my whole life. i have also made a dozen or so trips to iowa. i would give up deer hunting and fishing in a heartbeat if thats what i had to do to keep bird hunting. i plan on hunting sun-thur. because its about 800 miles for me to get to the eastern part of the state i was hoping you guys could let me know if there is any good bird hunting north east. i am looking at goff,vermillion,marysville,clifton,or clay center. if thats a poor area for birds i will go further west. also my shorthair is ten, so i need to keep her out of deep snow if she is going to last 5 days. i would appreciate any help you guys could give me. p.s. great site
