Snuck up on a covey of quail this week and got this shot of one. Its amzing how these little buggers can run so fast with such small legs. Love to watch these birds. Love to eat them too. :nod:

Grouse are one of my favorite things to hunt, like you I've never used dogs either. I just love the challange to shoot straight when I'm scared $@#*less. There's not any "Bob Whites" around here either, I think the coyotes got em.rusty":2z79q17j said:come to WV and go grouse hunting where a grouse shoots through the woods dodgeing trees and they are kinda hard to keep a bead on.Some use dogs we just hunt them while rabbit hunting and are lucky enough to jump some.They still scare the bejesus out of you when they take off.
