Early in his adolescence his life was changed when the family got a liver and white Brittany named Babe. Luther and Babe taught each other about life, birds and growing up in South Texas. He also learned about quail, a heady discovery for a young man with a bird dog. It's obvious that the young man will be following in his dad's footsteps. Creson spent the afternoon hunt with us and was an enjoyable addition to the group.
Early season hunting in South Texas is very interesting.
Plenty of natural feed close to the cover of brush will keep the quail close to home. They do not need to be moving around in search of food. This will keep the dogs busy. Poor scenting conditions also can be tallied into the mix. But, as cream will rise to the top, a good bird dog will find quail.
