I'll be at the matador this weekend. Hopefully it's a barrel melter.

Rain is in the forecast for the weekend. I'm going out Monday.
Quail hunting is like walking into, and out of a beautiful painting all day long. Gene Hill ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/usergals/2017/07/full-3669-105539-full_16668_105507_image.jpg)

I have Sunday and Monday off so would love to go. Just don't know where there is birds except in the Big Bend area and don't think I'll have time to drive that far.

It depends on UPS and my Garmin T-5 and dog boots getting here from Mississippi.
There is time, and you must take it, to lay your hand on your dog's head as you walk past him lying on the floor or on his settle, time to talk with him, to remember with him, time to please him, time you can't buy back once he's gone" GBE

Dog has a bicep tendon strain, at least that's what the vet believes it is. He will be on rest for the next 10 days, and then I'll see how he's coming along.
Gonna look at the weather before I make a decision on this weekend. A little rain is fine, but if its storming I'll wait till during the week.
Shopping with your husband is like hunting with the game warden.
Experience is what you get, when you didn't get what you wanted.

As for letting him run bare foot, the grass burrs I found in June are from H*LL!! I can't do that to him

Not gonna hunt if the weather is too bad. Supposed to be some serious rain on Sat. I'll be taking out an older gentleman on his own place. If Sat doesn't work out, we'll go next week.

God Bless the return of the wild birds. Hoping the rain is not a problem for anyone and it has always been difficult for me to complain about rain. Have a good season and send your friends who can't travel or have no dog out for a Close to Dallas fast and easy Quail Hunt.
Safe travels and straight shooting.
Great time

I already know it's way too muddy where we want to go.
We're thinking the 7th.

Did some drivin around the matador this afternoon and saw 3 coveys 15 birds strong atleast in about 30 min. That's just cruisin the roads. Also, you'd better have a 4x4 pickup. Roads aren't terrible but not great. I think they'll dry up quick.

Haven't had it in years but never spit any out. I am a sucker for happy endings and strapped cowboys.

We intended to hunt a lot more acreage but we only ended up stopping at 3 farms because the birds where so thick
