Years ago when wild quail were found in strong numbers here in the South, I always said "hard hunters and good dogs will always find birds." I hunted hard with good dogs until about 2003. At that point I decided either I couldn't hunt hard anymore or there weren't any good bird dogs because it was very difficult to find a covey of birds. When I read these negative reports of other upland hunters, hunting various species of upland birds, it saddens me. Hunting clay birds just isn't the same.
