Experience a traditional, fully guided upland hunt over some of the finest pointing dogs in the field. We hunt classic upland terrain, working along the edges of farmland, open rangeland, and rolling sandhills dotted with plum thickets.
We offer a limited number of wild quail hunts in the Texas Panhandle on private property. The Texas quail season runs from November 1st through February 28th. We can accommodate group sizes from 2 to 6 hunters; larger groups of 7 to 12 will be split between two or three guides to ensure a quality experience.
