My primary business is building custom hunting equipment. Here's a little eye candy for all, a couple of Texas quail rigs at my place waiting on owners to pick up.
In a fair part of the area toward Laguna Madre (along the coastal area, below Corpus Christi) a number of nailgi get shot off these rigs every year.

Keith: Super nice rigs. It is great fun riding on these for me as I get to see the dogs work etc. and yes to the "blue bulls". Had some student interns on the FMI San Tomas Camp lease (for a year each) on the Encino division as well as over on the other side of 77. When a "pasture" can be over 5,000 ac. one needs to ride..... LOL

Indeed, a big difference from walking the field edges and hedge rows I hunted as a kid in S. and SE. Kansas! One rotating pair of dogs would get you thru a full day of hunting, you didn't need to carry a dozen!

Keith: You got that right.
