Just curious if there are others on the forum that focus primarily on quail in Colorado. You sure hear a lot about pheasants, but what about quail? It is starting to seem like I am the only one lol!
Colorado Quail Hunters?

Last year was the first time I hunted them and I had an absolute blast! I'll be hunting them exclusively in December, stacking it with my antelope hunts. Something about kicking out a covey, missing all of them but some unexplained devine intervention by the quail gods, then chasing the little groups down. I'm hooked.
If you're going after scales; get some good boots for your dogs. I've never found enough bobs to hunt in Colorado. Where are you hunting?

Glad to see some other quail lovers are out there. I mostly hunt bobs, but do chase scales as much as possible. Grew up in colorado hunting primarily quail and blue grouse, it is a good quail state IMO but private access is key to success. And yeah the scale country can be rough on a dog. Just have never found a boot that will stay on. Best thing I have found are the leather ones. Actually started making my own because I lose so many haha.

I went to Kansas Saturday night and came across a nice covey of quail by accident. Shot two then ran out of hunting light. From what I understand to get into any Bob whites you should hunt along the river in the Northeast. It is a bird I would definitely hunt again after a little more research.
