Re: Arizona quail

While I like Senior Linden's show I despise the hotspottiing mentality. Ezzy you r wrong in my case. I do not hunt to socialize. I hunt to enjoy nature & hopefully watch my self trained hounds (hooligans) wrangle in wild birds. One thing that can lessen the experience for me personally is to have so...
