Welcome aboard.
As you see, and like others have said, it's best to contact a local biologist in the area you want to hunt. Or a game warden. They will give you valuable intel. At minimum, how the population is doing. I look at all the data I can too in the area I'm going.
I won't step foot in another state without talking to at least one if not both and obsessing over every piece of data I can find about the areas birds
