Good for you! I've got to work the local farmers a little bit more. Good luck.

That's the problem. A lot of farmers don't let you hunt there ground anymore. Whether it be they are leasing their ground or they save it for a relative or friend, ect...I've heard them all. Some will not let you hunt for the fear of you getting hurt and then turning around and sueing the land owner.

700, Where are you hunting at? I want to come out and shoot some birds with you. Sounds like you have a great pheasant population where you live.

Hey guys, is there a lot of public land to hunt in eastern Iowa? Im from Arizona and recently moved to IL. I live in the western suburbs of Chicago now. It would be awesome to make it out there while I am here!

Later!
