Fun thread!  I'd take a very long tour and hunt all upland birds and all waterfowl across numerous states.  Woodcock, grouse, phez, snipe, all varieties of wild turkey, cranes, dove, ducks, geese, all varietys of quail, chukars, huns, sharpies, prarie chickens . . . leave Sept 1st and finish in Texas end of February.  Heck, I might never come home. : )

Welcome to the forum, Cody.  If by group you mean a dog training/hunting club, I know there are a few in the metroplex.  I am a member of the Lone Star Chapter of NAVHDA, and with a GSP that might interest you.  Only problem is that most of their events take place near Austin -- there has been, however, some talk of organizing some informal training days and such in the DFW area (plenty of members in the metroplex).  I have not trained with any other clubs.  I also have access to a place near Tyler that is nice for some dog training, and I would gladly get together with a few other folks informally to train sometime out there as well.

If you mean hunting and such, we could certainly organize a few get-togethers.  I recently left a post about a dove lease that is fairly convenient to the metroplex, so you might want to check that out.  If it interests you, send me an email direct and I can let you know what field I will be on and how to go about signing up to be part of the group I hunt doves with.  Duckwhacker is correct -- for quail you must go west.  I have had a quail lease out near San Angelo for the last two years.  I have never hunted pheasant but would be interested in a trip to Oklahoma or somewhere to give it a try.  As for ducks, I tried it once this year (first time ever) using a day lease and had a good time.  I would be interested in some kind of group duck hunt trip this year for sure.

Amen -- my main disappointment has not been lack of birds in the bag but lack of birds for the dog to work.  I would gladly go all season with hardly any birds bagged if I could just get him on enough wild quail to draw out his point and give him much needed first year experience.  I agree -- watching a dog work is very worthwhile!
