There is something I really want to do

Mills You would really enjoy it. It’s beautiful but tough country. Lots of walking, but worth every step. Some days you can’t find a bird, the next you find multiple coveys.
Quail Numbers vary Year to year. Mills I could help advise you on hunting Mearns if you would like to chat. Seems like every guy with a half broke dog claims he is a guide down here. There is only one I could recommend. |
Garry I love their drive. I want a dog that ranges out 100 yards plus in a 180 degree arch in front of me and has the stamina to hunt two to three hours in this tough country.
Their shorthair allows them to hunt some pretty nasty areas. Love the intense drive and pointing. Finally I like white dogs for their visibility. |

Yesterday with Ollie.

I'm sitting here butt-deep in snow looking at these photos and starting to plan a trip for someplace warmer and without snow.
Thanks for the inspiration, and good hunting to you and those nice pups! |

Last trip out.
This is an area that Chris Dawe and I hunted a few years ago and where Chris shot his first limit of wild quail. Quail season closes a week from today. I hope to get the dogs out a few more days if possible. |
That last picture almost looks like my little section of Vermont!
What’s that red arrow pointing at? Looks like a tail… . |

Dean the arrow actually is pointing at Ollie on point over a covey of quail. Kind of hard to see. Another reason to love white dogs.
I have edited the picture to show a zoomed view. This area does look a little like Vermont but the pictures are deceiving. This is at the bottom of a canyon we’re there is water. I have attached a few pictures of a typical area we hunt. |
Except for those occasional yuccas it looks a lot like my "scrubapple hillside" where I took you. One of my favorite spots except we only scored one woodcock with you that day.
Looks like Chris in your third picture there. . |
