Took my son Jeremy on his first quail hunt today. He burned some powder, and managed to get his limit of 3.
He shoots a 20 ga OU(so sue me),but it does have double triggers. I scratched down my limit also. That's my 20 Parker barrels coming in over Doodle.

Good for you, Harold! Glad you got your son some action. (And your dogs are beautiful!)

So, do you encounter many other quail hunters? Can you tell us about the stocking program?
