Quail hunters understand the appeal of cool mornings, crisp air, eager dogs, open spaces and the heartpounding rush of a covey taking flight, but if you don’t yet know, that doesn’t mean you can’t find out!
The Wildlife Department is inviting you to make 2023 the year you discover a passion for upland birds, their habitat and quail hunting.
This year’s quail season kicks off Saturday in Oklahoma. Although dogs help, you don’t have to have one to hunt quail or to have success. You just need to learn a little about the game! There’s public lands open for quail season. To obtain resources and hunting licenses to get you started, go to www.wildllifedepartment.com.
