    Quail hunting

    Headed quail hunting south of Abilene this weekend. Do I need a migratory bird endorsement? Also are there lots of quail in this area. This will be my first trip hunting quail with dogs. I'm just waiting on 4:00 and will be west bound.

    No they aren't migratory, you won't need the endorsement.

        I can't talk about Abilene area, but just south of Wichita falls they are few and far between.
        No migratory stamp needed!

          Rough year from what I've heard... All day walk for a covey or two

            Unfortunate you probably won’t need many shells either. Quail numbers were awful this year out in our part of the SE panhandle

              Where abouts are you going? I know you said south of Abilene but like how far south

                You don't need migratory but you will need upland stamp

                  This is the story all across TX this year, unless you are going to be shooting pen raised birds

                    We usually see a few coveys on our lease in Coleman. Did not see any at all this year. Good luck
