With SBHooper posting his story of Arizona quail, I guess today is officially Arizona quail day here on Hunt Talk. We had hoped to post this earlier in the week, but getting final approval from me and other parties involved is never as expedient as one hopes.
Below is a YouTube episode of the Mearns' quail hunting we did in Arizona last month. You will recognize a couple of the characters, Uncle Larry and Jerry Pritchard. The other hunter, Wade Zarlingo is a college buddy from my days of debauchery at ASU. While I spent days chasing Coues deer, they were out leveraging the instincts of Wade's amazng Pudelpointer, Shilo.
This is a bit of an experiment, in many ways. It is our first attempt at filming upland birds. It is edited in a different style to try accommodate what we are learning about YouTube viewing. It is an effort to see how much Randy actually has to be in the content, with me only being involved in Day 3.

I hope video can capture 10% of the essence of this hunt. It is a remarkable hunt on an amazing landscape, much of which is public land. If you are already investing in a non-resident Arizona hunting license, this is just one more way to gain benefit from that investment.
Thanks for watching. Interested in any constructive feedback.
