Quail Fact Friday - Gambel’s quail put their feet to good use. They often climb shrubs and low trees to reach berries. Interestingly, their shorter back toe never touches the ground while walking or running. Quail Fact Friday is presented by Irish Setter Boots #quailforever #quailfactfriday

Shotgun Showcase - CZ-USA All Terrain 1012 G2 The CZ All Terrain 1012 G2 takes CZ’s proven inertia-driven platform and makes it even better—now with a tuned inertia system for more shell versatility, reversible safety, and magazine tube extension capability. Designed for real-world use, it features oversized controls, extended choke tubes, sling mounts, and a rugged olive-drab Cerakote finish made to handle hard days in the field. Smooth swinging, reliable with target loads, and consistently turning heads with “That doesn’t look like a $700 semi-auto!” reactions. If you want a dependable, do-it-all semiauto that moves effortlessly from clays to the hunt, the 1012 G2 punches well above its price point.

The Habitat Organization is proud to know that our wildlife habitat conservation mission positively impacts communities nationwide. Our priorities directly align with our national partner, Equity Bank, which has created many habitat success stories across Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri and Oklahoma. Throughout the past two years, Equity Bank has contributed to multiple aspects of mission delivery, provided funding for conservation programs, and supported several events. This past year in particular has produced great accomplishments by partnering with landowners, enrolling acres in conservation programs, and restoring habitat to benefit quail, pheasants and other wildlife.

Celebrating the North American Wetlands Conservation Act Anniversary in the Uplands If you’re an upland hunter, it’s easy to see the value of NAWCA in the marshes mixed in with prairie. Throughout the Midwest this winter, plenty of roosters will be flushed out of thickly packed and snowy cattail sloughs. And in the spring throughout the Southeast, wetlands will help generate bountiful insect populations – the necessary fuel for newly hatched quail chicks. At least in part, credit for access to the outdoors and resources for wildlife to thrive is due to funding from NAWCA. All conservationists have treasured the past 36 years of this program, and PF & QF can’t wait to see what the next 36 will bring.
