I imagine quail season is opening soon in Missouri, hope it's a great season.

Harold, so glad your hunt went well. Bird seasons are open in Iowa and Missouri, and I’m hoping we find some flight woodcock in our coverts. The rut is in full swing here with heavy scrape checking. I’ve seen lots of bucks on our cameras, including a few bruisers. So much to do, so little time. Got a series of tests coming that will steal time, but we’ll do all we can.
