With moving to OK earlier this year I want to get familiar with a few places to go hunt, prefer public walk in land.
So does anyone know how birds are out around Woodward or Beaver, OK or up in Larned or Meade, KS? I realize the drought has really hurt the numbers but figure there's got to be some birds somewhere.
Feel free to post or PM me.
Really appreciate it!
Shane

Re: Birds in OK & KS
We recently had a conversation about NW OK.

I was out in the Panhandle around Guymon and Hooker, drove around the Beaver and Optima WMAs and up to Liberal, KS. I was in areas that should have been able to see birds. I did not see a single pheasant or quail. Now granted I was working and not running dogs, but the fact is, as much as I am out on the road and I should have at least seen a pheasant somewhere.

Re: Birds in OK & KS
My farmer friends and I have never seen it this bad out here around Guymon. I drive 30 miles a day north of Guymon and have seen 2 pheasant the last 4 months. Normally, I would see several pheasant daily. I have not seen a quail in months. I couldn't tell you the last time I saw a cottontail either.
