Interview with Dr. Dale Rollins the eminent Quail expert in the Lone Star State and all around extraordinary individual.

Its a great interview with a truly great man.

Plus there is a picture of a double barrel shotgun that I don't think is a parker, but still looks nice.

Hopefully quail numbers will continue to bounce back up. Numbers in central and east texas have been the pits since the mid 80s.

Just returned from West Texas, Colorado City, and agree that Quail appear to be on the rebound. But, we still have a long long way to go to return to numbers of 10-12 years ago.

I hold out hope as well that the quail will make a big comeback. Turkeys and Wood Ducks came back, so there is hope

My dad used to be a huge quail hunter in central Texas. He is hoping that it repeats itself like it did in the 60s. He days there were almost no quail in the 50s and they came back up.

I have a place in Menard County and for the first time in years we have enough quail to hunt. Good rains and cut the number of cattle.
