Stan I mainly hunt Mearns because I love hunting Mearns quail over my English pointers. Also the last 20 years or so the desert birds ( Scale and Gamble bird numbers have been way down.
This year the winter rains which our desert birds depend on for early spring nesting was quite good so the numbers are up in some areas.
Our season opens up this Friday and I will be going out. Due to the heat and because we are still hitting 100 degrees almost every day. The dogs will be staying home.
The combination of heat, snakes and cactus is just too tough on my dogs this time of the year Once it cools around December where the snakes are less of a threat I will be taking the dogs out.
