You could talk with JJ. I haven't hunted with him yet, but will be next year. He seems to be a good guy. Gave us good advice for duck season. If you use him, PLEASE mention Jim and Cory from Iowa recommended him. And let me know how your hunt went. Jim

Texas would be a top choice but they are here in Oklahoma too. We also have Merriams in the panhandle and Easterns in SE part of the state. The public birds get hit really hard here though and can be dang call and decoy shy.

Kansas has a lot of walk on land and Rio Grandes just research their web site . As far as the Osceola I killed my first on public land and am going back this spring to try again.
