Based on my recent experience just across the line into the OK Panhandle, those Texans aren't living up to their "tall tales" reputation. There are indeed EXCELLENT bobwhite numbers in that part of the country this year. But as you can see from the photos, be prepared to walk some heavy cover. We moved 15 coveys in a little under 4 hours, hunting on ground owned or leased by The Last Buffalo guys out of Darrouzett, TX. They do put out feeders for the birds, which helps locate the coveys--as do many people with leases or who offer commercial hunts. Really nice to see you folks enjoying bird numbers like that again. You're a lot more "boom and bust" with your quail, due to weather, than we are with pheasants up north. But from what I saw, this is certainly a boom year to be enjoyed! And I wish our pheasants would double and triple brood so we could make up lost ground as quickly as TX/OK bobwhites can.
