Hunting quail with good dogs is about as good as life gets. My wife and I bought some land last fall. My son took his pup out earlier this week to see if he could get her on some quail. She's a pudelpointer, still not a year old. She's done impressively well this year hunting dove and ducks. This was her first experience with quail. He said she froze and pointed the first covey she found, and he was able to flush and take one. They got onto a single, and he killed another one for her to retrieve.
It's just a small place - 63 acres. But it's cool to have wild quail. If only he'd been carrying one of my Parkers.
