That's a sad state of affairs. There are no pheasant in SW Mo as you probably know but at one time it was decent quail hunting territory. I hunt some conservation ground and I don't expect to harvest a lot of quail. So far this year I've been out 3 time with my dogs. The first two times out I found a covey and killed one quail each day. The third time out I found no birds. I didn't mind as I had a good day just following my dogs around.
I know it was really dry out west but around here we had plenty of rain. I'm wondering how far east the drought was. I might have a place by Lewis, KS to hunt. That's a little east of Dodge so I'm wondering if they got any rain around there.
I'm going to have to a preserve and shoot some quail and maybe some chukar just so my dogs can have some fun but I also need to find a good place to hunt wild birds.
