I have 80 acres of pasture and ponds in N. OK. Probably the best pheasant population in Oklahoma around me, lots of roosters cackling. Also been hearing a lot of quail whistle as well. Deer haven't really shown up yet, but the next big project is turning 40 acres of so-so wheat ground into tall grass and Forestry department trees. Deer come around occasionally, but not nearly as often as I would like. I had a lot more when there was milo there to draw them in. I did plant some alfalfa this year to try to start bringing them back, only alf. for about 4 or 5 miles. You're lucky, our season doesn't open on pheasants until 1 DEC! Have to settle for blackpowder season this weekend.
