I think Tuesday I will venture down to Greenwood Forest WMA to try for some quail. It will be my first time for quail and to that WMA. I know it is big and I hope I don't get lost. I think I will use my 20 gauge with #8 shot. __________________ It isn't the catch or the kill that makes for a great outdoor experience but enjoying all that God has created for us.

| Hey guys, be sure not to stray over onto Ft Dix (if you go on that side of Greenwood) as there is quite a bit of training going on there. Hate to see an accident | ||

20ga and #8. Good quail combo. Get the gun up quick and watch the bird. Don't try to aim.
They are fun but quick. __________________ "A bad day of hunting is better than a good day of work"

you walk like a 1\4 mile from where u drive in at. then u go down and u see a field thats bordering the path. either keep going straight or hang a right and go down. Last saturday most of the birds stayed close to the roads. Not many shots last weekend for the amount of birds and hunters out there. I ended up getting 1. __________________ To fish or not to fish...what a stupid question

| You will be fine. It is a checkerboard of fields. Just hunt it methodically to keep your bearings. You will have company if you get turned around, ask for help. | ||

What about Rt. 72 coming in from? Thought about going down when it got cooler. Its to warm for me cause the chiggers and ticks. |
