sureshot40 Drumright, OK 48, joined Apr. 2011	Yea, Oklahoma is pretty greedy too. We are just about run over with deer, more get run over on the roads than get harvested, yet you have to have hunting license and doe tags. They should let people harvest them for free and it would help insurance rates go down and help the over population.

It seems like it would be more logical to control the population by hunting instead of that.

You can hunt hogs, but game and fish want you to report where and when male or female and how big. Think they are just trying to figure out how to make money on hunting them.

The last three years my boss has not sprayed his pasture for weeds and we a bumper crop of rag and broom weeds. Good news is we have been seeing about 10 to a cuvy and my 16 year old daughter will get to go on her first quail hunt this year.

stargazzer Creighton, NE 68, joined Feb. 2007	Game birds often need farmers to help when numbers dwindle down. the state is of little use in regards to helping with numbers. I brought back our pheasant & quail population by raiseing 100 to 300 a year for 6 years then with peasants I would take 12 to 20 and place them in diferant parts of the township were I thought they may do well. You can't do this with quail them you must let go were they were raised. And you must do it all unselfishly as no one will pay you. I spent as much as a $1000.00 a year for birds & feed + equipment another $2500.00 Very few people will do this but with modern farming as it is this is what it takes if you want the birds in your county or parish.

We have bought quail from other parts of Oklahoma and turned them loose and seems like most of them turned up dead by drowning in stock tanks, getting run over and going to peoples houses that had cats. We never done it again.

Likely I do not know all the answer to this but they develop a little computer chip from hatching to the 1st days of life that takes them through life and moving them messes up that chip. You can release quail at 5 to 6 week and they will always return home, move them & they just disappear. Quail do travel some maybe as much as 40 miles from home but they do also return. If you buy quail hatched you want to take them home the day they hatched 3 days is getting late

Maybe we will try raising them, I know where to buy eggs just before the hatch

We did trap some in the thick swamps here and release them in the fields and immediately put the dogs out with great success. Had to convince my uncle that it was better that way than to enjoy them with no shot in them as he had always done before

The re-production one. sence it's so pretty I will likely leave it inside un-used by me also haveing a new one being custom built for me right now it is going to be a copy of an 1854 German jager origanal that i have looks much like a S Hawkin only made in germany with that county flavor. Was found on a western Nebraska Ranch as one of the ranch guns from the 1880's 70 years ago. I am the 3rd owner sence the 1880's but I can make a educated guss it was shiped to ST lewis in 1854 by it's markings it is a full .50 cal. I asked that my new one be in .54 cal. also both are percuson.

But they had a special for renting a 357 on at the range, so thought to my self, why not? Quite different from the Glock. The increased travel length for the trigger, really caught me by surprise. And I found I "jerked" too much, unless I monitored and watched the hammer come back. Found I was getting crossed eye though, and cheated, ended up closing one eye. Any one have any tips for me? Not sure if I will buy one, going to rent one again next week when I go. But it was fun and am thinking, maybe.

I practiced dry firing revolvers and as soon as it fires look down the sights to be sure you're still on target after thousands of times it does become almost second nature. When hunting with a revolver I use it in single action. I watched a video on a shooting contest for revolvers and they are shooting faster than semiautomatics.

Thanks, found some you tube vids last night that is helping. I think I got crossed up because I am right handed, but my left eye is slightly stronger than the right, So with out knowing it really, am slightly dominate in it . Never noticed with the Glock or Browning as I was compensating with out really realizing it. But the added awareness of watching the hammer as well coming back, threw me off. That is what I think right now, will see how it goes when I go back to the range tomorrow , Going to practice some more, and rent it a few more times before buying one.
