Eastern and Rio Grande Turkey

turkey

One of many for this lady hunter.

Wild turkey hunts where each turkey hunter reserves an individual numbered lease and hunts alone.

Kansas turkey season covers six weeks of all day hunts and both Eastern and Rio Grande Turkey makes Kansas spring turkey hunts the easiest trip to plan.

Missouri with its well know turkey population does allow for the largest toms in our area. Missouri spring turkey season lasts but three weeks and overlaps with Kansas and Iowa.

Iowa rounds out the five spring tag options our hunters have to chose from. Iowa spring turkey allows for a hunt on the way to or from Iowa or Kansas.

Our turkey hunts allow for those that seek to test their turkey calling and decoying skills against the toms and hens and not that of competing turkey hunters. It is far more likely any turkey hunter will see another turkey hunter in the motel parking lot than even across the property line out on our land.

Waterfowl

duck

Take a more leisurely approach to your duck hunts. Blinds are for the entire day and well separated from others.

Waterfowl hunting from our own custom built Missouri wetlands, covered duck blinds or do it yourself hunts on wade-in or layout boat areas.

Duck hunters will enjoy shallow shooting pools surrounding permanent blinds on natural wetlands enhanced with duck attracting water level controls and selected plantings. Duck hunt our wetlands once and enjoy choosing from 30+ blinds and several wetlands habitat types on any one day or trip.

Goose hunters can scout over thousands of crop stubble acres on and off moving and still waters near or on our wetlands and that of state and federal refuge areas. Goose hunts through our approach gives the hunter the chance to move to where the geese are rather than rely on nature to bring the geese to him.

No where will we say limits will be shot. We will offer that those that hunt our blinds and wetlands will find they are superior to most any other option to be found. The chance to waterfowl hunt every day desired and do so without others setting up close, sky busting or trying to steal flights makes for the enjoyable hunt most seek to repeat. The variables that makes the difference are weather and migration, not the quality of our blinds and wetlands.

Upland Birds

Upland bird hunters can enjoy a preference of wild Bobwhite Quail, pheasant or mixed bag hunt. That same hunter has a choice of habitat covering tall grass, brush filled draws and crop fields. Most enjoy the variety of habitat and birds on the same hunt finding a bird or habitat of preference more suited for their hunting style and dog power. Start with our upland bird page for a quick overview of all the upland bird hunt options we provide.

pheasant

Charles D., enjoys the day with his dog above all else.

Pheasant hunts include more tall grass acreage than most will care to hunt in a season. Our pheasant hunts also cover the grassed waterways of Iowa, the draws and tall grass of Kansas. Our pheasant regions overlap with that of Bobwhite Quail giving every pheasant hunter the choice of a mixed bag hunt.

Kansas pheasant hunts have the most tall grass acreage and when tired of the physical strain tall grass provides, Kansas also has brush filled draws that holds both pheasant and quail. The Kansas pheasant hunter will find the 4 bird daily bag along with quail to provide the level of dog work that makes for the better pheasant hunt.

Iowa pheasant hunts will provide as much pheasant as quail dog action. Iowa pheasant hunts are within the landowners' fence line and not the often read about ditch or road hunts. We offer wild Iowa pheasant hunts on natural crop farm land without any of the public lands hunter mentality. We also preclude the necessity of knocking on doors for land access. Our hunters hunt without competition.

bobwhite quail

Jerry C., at 62 does a quail hunt about once a week running one dog at a time.

Wild Bobwhite Quail hunts over thousands of miles of grain crop field edge, waterways and short grass. We emphasize the phrase "Wild Bobwhite Quail Hunts" as our quail hunts are that tough as wild quail provide. For those with the willingness to walk, shooting ability and dog power we have the wild quail to provide full day hunts every day of the trip. Our quail hunts insure hunter separation to avoid stepping over boot prints or mixing dogs with others.

Missouri quail hunts provide the most grain field and soft edge acreage as well as smaller fields than that of our Kansas or Iowa quail regions. Missouri quail hunters can expect as much woods shooting as that of open field with both covey and singles points allowing for 10 minutes to two hours worth of dog on bird action per covey. Missouri is also for the Bobwhite Quail purist as the pheasant is a rarity.

Iowa quail season allows for quail hunts from the last Saturday in October through the last day in January making it the longest quail season of our three states. Iowa quail hunts differ from Missouri with the addition of more pheasants will be found and differs from Kansas as Kansas has more than double the pheasants of Iowa. Iowa Bobwhite Quail hunts allow for not only a longer season but also a stop off on the way to or from a Kansas or Missouri hunt.

Kansas quail hunts offer the best mixed bag opportunity for pheasant as well on the same day and every day of the trip. This variety lends to sustain hunter interest and dog power development through not only two bird species, but also habitat variety of tall grass, brush filled draws and crop fields as well as crop edge hunts. Kansas quail hunts are for the upland bird hunter that enjoys not knowing for sure what will flush from point.

Private Kansas, Missouri and Iowa lease land hunting for the do it yourself hunter that only requires the opportunity to get on good habitat without the hassle of knocking on doors or competing on public land.
