They call this Sportsman's Paradise, but except for the fishing, hunting is a joke unless you have a high dollar lease, or high dollar equipment in order to hunt. I guess living out west in the Rockies where you could hunt on BLM lands has pretty much ruined me. I haven't hunted in years and want to get back into it. I'm only 14 hours to SW Kansas and I'm going to try to start making a couple of trips every year.
Do you mind helping a feller out? I've been doing some reading and it seems that there is a lot of public lands to hunt. Without being nearby to scout out public lands, is it possible for a guy coming from out of town to have a fairly succesful hunt? OK, now the big embarassment, I don't have a dog. My dad has always had the bird dogs and I've always hunted with him, but the last dog died last Feb, and Dad probably will not make it to another season, @#$@ cancer!!.
I miss bird hunting and really want to get back into it. Any advice at all would be very appreciated. Also on public lands, can I pitch a tent or camper?
Thanks,
Jack
