#2 is almost always true #4 is true but when good people don't have the same ethics or standards as you it can make it weird. Just an example I've hunted with great people that shoot birds on the ground. Which I don't care for. -
It's over. the 2016/17 quail season is over and I learned a few things. Here they are in no particular order. 1. I need to practice my shooting. Some days I can shoot pretty well and some days I have a bent barrel. I need to shoot more in the off season to be consistent. I am my own worst enemy and my dog gets frustrated with me I'm sure. 2. Every year is a learning experience for you and your dog. Just when you think you have these birds figured out they throw a curveball at you. 3. I don't get out enough. Between all the rain, family, holidays, and work I didn't get out as much as I planned. 4. People trash this state. If you hunt down south for mearns or you hunt these desert birds you will find one common thing, people are disrespectful. Please pick up your trash. Pick up your spent hulls. I know it is exciting when birds flush and you want to chase them but please take the time to pick up your hulls. I find double barrel guys do a decent job at it but semi auto and pump shotgun shooter just blast as they walk and never turn back. 5. Our mearns are getting hit harder and harder every year. It is not just local guys now it is out of staters. Magazines, books, TV shows, and of course social media keeps talking about how great our mearns hunting is here which makes everyone and their dog come and blast our birds. game and fish has no way to track how many people actually hunt this bird and I think they are messing up badly. 6. I need to get into shape. Yes round is a shape but dang I'm not getting any younger Or smaller. 7. I've known this for a while but I think about it a lot. I really appreciate the "old timers" or "ol geezers" as they call themselves for taking the time to give me pointers and taking the time to help me become a better Upland hunter. If you ever get a chance to hunt with any of our local legends, jump at the opportunity. Just watching these guys is fun. Mr. Priest and Mr. Corley, thank you I'm already looking forward to next year. The desert is green and the hatch should be a good one.

Male or female? Liver roan?? Don produces some good dogs, you can almost always tell if it's a Remchester dog because of the markings. How are you getting it here from Tennessee?

So you want someone else to deal with it whelping pups and vet bills? On a serious note talk to guys at trials

Rain and birds!!!!
Tres replied to stanley's topic in Small Game, Upland Bird, and Waterfowl Hunting
I've been rained out of hunts multiple times this year. As upset as I get that the rain stopped me from chasing quail I am quite happy that we are getting the rain. Hopefully the hatch this year is a good one. Keep the rain coming. -
