Cali has some great hunting. Really look at the ducks and geese, they fly in huge numbers there. Quail is also good and up north, deer is better than you think (look at the X zones). Turkey is strong and as long as you put in work, you should be good to go.

The X-zones are all i put in for, both of my parents and me have maxed out our preferance points, so any year now we should be drawn, ducks are what i mainly go for i just hat the cost for them, and then turkey is just fun, but it is rare that i dont get my bird, or at least a shot at jakes

I live in Elk Grove, Ca. If you are in Fairfield you are less than 30 minutes from the Yolo Bypass Wildlife Area which offers very good waterfowl hunting. For turkeys you might want to try the Spencville Wild Life Area which is right next to Beale AFB.
