This website is about some folks doing research on BobWhites. It is primarily about Southwestern ranch Bob White.

We currently have good quail but we went through a period of 5 or 6 years where it was awful. Maybe about 1990 is when it started. When they came back you couldn't find a green broke pup within 200 miles, much less a finished birddog. Everybody had gotten out of birddogs. I can get you all you want now though.
Best,
Mike
Edit - I think the most interesting information is in the newsletter section.
