Kick off the 2026 Kansas upland opener with an unforgettable hunt that blends incredible bird action with the chance to support two great causes. For nearly a decade, Bobby Cole has hosted his annual wild bird hunt for veterans—a tradition filled with camaraderie, nonstop laughs, and plenty of birds in the bag.

This year, you’ll share the field with three Operation Phoenix Outdoors (OPO) veterans/first responders and Bobby himself. Bobby proudly volunteers with OPO, an organization dedicated to serving those who’ve served us. Even better, all proceeds will be split 50/50 between Pass It On! Outdoor Mentors and OPO—directly supporting their missions.

With access to prime private land in Western Kansas, hunters can expect fantastic upland action right when the excitement is at its peak—opening weekend of the 2026 season.

Important details: Lodging and meals are not included, but we recommend the Hampton Inn in Dodge City, KS for comfort and convenience. This Package is for 2 Hunters!

What you’re bidding on is more than a hunt—it’s the chance to make memories, hunt side by side with true American heroes, and give back to organizations making a real difference. Don’t miss your chance to be part of this tradition!
