My cousin lives near Jasper County. He went to Neal Smith once or twice this year, and thought it a disappointment. He heard similar reports from others. I know of some success up in Wright County. Sorry, don't know much about SW IA. Happy hunting-

It sounds cliche, but where there's habitat, there's birds. I hunt private land and have seen plenty of birds, majority of them being hens.

I'm jealous. I had the opportunity to hunt Iowa for a couple days last year and was pleasantly surprised by the number of birds given all the reports of dwindling pheasant populations. It must've been a pigeon shoot 15 years ago.
