Wow. Opening day, and not a peep. Either a comment on this forum, or pheasant hunting in Colorado. Speaking of which, being on the Western Slope I didn't get out for the B-52s, but I did manage to get into a few quail. Yes, Virginia, there really are Gambel's quail in Colorado. Should have had...

Don't see much discussion of "cotton-tops" on here, but here goes anyway. Where I pheasant hunt I run into a fair number of quail, both bobs and scaleys in about equal number. This weekend I stumbled into a large covey of scaleys, around 20 birds. First interesting item is they acted much...

I'm a loner by nature and don't join many forums, but since this is probably my #1 passion, I decided I would finally join. I've been reading threads here off and on for a couple years, and overall enjoyed them. I've been hunting pheas and elk most of my life, and added turkey, dove, grouse and...
