Guests are collected from a hotel of their choice at 8:00 a.m. We generally start hunting buy 9:00 a.m. Guide, quail rig, dogs, refreshments, and snacks are provided. A cooked lunch served with your choice of wines is provided at midday. After lunch, hunting resumes until roughly 5:00 p.m. Guests are generally returned to their hotel by 6:30 p.m. All birds harvested are cleaned, packaged, and frozen by your guide and ready for your departure.
Gear Recommendations:
Dress in layers for cooler mornings and warmer afternoons. Blaze orange vest/jacket and cap are recommended. Brush pants are recommended, but not essential. A good pair of walking boots is essential.
Shotguns in 12, 16, 20, and 28 gauge are recommended, and we strongly suggest #6 shot (lead) while hunting. Although we prefer clients to use side-by-side or over-and-under shotguns, pump-actions and semi-autos are permissible. If using a pump-action or semi-auto, please be attentive and collect all ejected casings while hunting and ensure the breach of the guns is open while not hunting.
What to Bring (Additional):
A camera and good friends! The scenery is spectacular and we'd hate for you to miss out on panoramic photo opportunities.
We also welcome guests bringing their own dogs.

We recommend #6 lead shot through modified chokes.

The nearest commercial airports are Midland (2.5 hours) and El Paso (3 hours). Both Alpine and Marfa offer private airstrips available to guest preferring to travel in their own planes.

We also offer aoudad (Barbary sheep) and pronghorn hunting on a limited basis to our quail hunting guests. Please contact us for more information.
