Just finished three more days of Mearns Quail Hunting and the bird numbers are down, however we visited an area which we've not hunted in 15 years and were into birds all three days and averaged about covey per hour. Coveys were small so we only took one bird per covey.
Wednesday was our goodbye breakfast for many of the hunters. We have one group from PA, several from upper mid-west, one small group from California and large group from Montana and several of the group were headed to New Mexico to chase Blues and then on to Texas to finish the year. Many of the guys started with hunting Ruffed Grouse in PA, Wis or Minnesota then onto North Dakota , South Dakota, Kansas or Montana for Pheasant, Huns or Sharptail before they arrive in Patagonia so the dogs are tired and thin and the hunter have enjoyed another wonderful year of bird hunting.
I'm hunting 1 more day the last week of the season with older dear friend before he heads back to Montana.
