Our season opens this Saturday. Outlook is poor. Numbers way down. We had a long dry summer (record breaker) and now the quail numbers are down. BUT, have gun (and dog) will travel!!
Just curious to know how you did this weekend. All reports I heard were that quail were scarce and any they did find were sometimes as small as sparrows. What area?
My buddies hunted in Harmon county last Saturday and Sunday and only moved on 4 coveys in 2 days and they had 5 dogs working. One area they hunted they didn't find a bird and it held at least 9 coveys last year. So it doesn't look good.
