[QUOTE="remy3424, post: 2036015, member: 109837"] That stinks. The birds numbers reflect the habitat or lack of it. I read in Pennsylvania the state releases pen raised birds during the season for the hunters to shoot. I made a reference to it as "government subsidized pheasant hunting". As I think about this, Iowa also does this (it could be a federal program), but with a different twist. 4 years ago, or so, they offered a CRP program (CP-38) which actually targeted pheasant recovery. It is really working here, creating awesome habitat (and bird numbers) in a hurry! It had to cost a ton, but it had multiple additional benefits, very similar to the regular CRP, but there are requirements for nesting cover, heavy winter cover and food plots. I guess pay the grain farmers to raise them or pay a pheasant ranch to provide them. I hope things change for you. [/QUOTE]
