Hey Cowboy & hunter, are you guys hitting up public ground or do you have access to private land? I would love to hit up land west of Ft. Hays but I don't always have the time and I'm not as familiar with the land.

I've been hunting around Milford because I have access to a little less than a section of private ground and there is a ton of public land around there, but as it has been said, the hail storms this summer really hurt the survival rate for upland birds. Last weekend, though, I took a buddy of mine hunting for his first time and we scared up probably ten coveys of quail and two hens over a full day of hunting. I have been hearing that the land west Marysville is supposed to be pretty good, so I think we may try that this weekend. Hopefully it didn't snow any harder up there than it did here.
