The quail this year (and most others) are in the Rolling Plains ecoregion of western OK and TX. Check out the quail reports on Texas Parks and Wildlife and OK Dept of Wildlife Conservation. Best quail numbers in a decade in both.

Problem is little public hunting land, so be prepared to pay to play. On the other hand should you decide to go to Kansas you have a lot of WIHA land and can hunt a mixed bag of ringnecks and quail.
