Since we had enough of these little boogers to hunt. We stumbled across a few coveys while we were out shredding some shooting lanes for deer hunting. Going to be good in the frying pan! I was very tempted to just mount the rooster with a hen. Maybe next time...

Haven't seen one in over 10 years here, good to see some getting a few.

We are pretty fortunate. This is the best I have ever seen it here. If we were actually hunting we could have got a limit in about an hour.

Congrats. It's been a lot of years since I've even heard a quail, much less hunted for them.

I won't hunt them anymore around our places...Fairfield and Lampasas...too rare and enjoy seeing/hearing them to shoot! Glad they are making a comeback...

I have seen far more Bobs this year than any year I can remember. Been one heck of a good year for them.
