Understood...I and Texas born and a Quail hunter since the 50s... Each hunter in the line has a radius to respect....
And anyone who says they aren't startled and disconcerted, and put off their aim, when they take to the air, with a roar, right under their nose, is a damn prevaricator. Of course, it's a lot easier with a good dog. Brownwood - quail capital of the world.
