Newbie quail hunter
« on: Today at 10:42:21 AM »
I’ve focused on hunting big game most of my life and would like to explore upland bird hunting. I’m dogless so my aspirations aren’t high. I expect to do lots of walking and hopefully happen on some birds occasionally.

It seems that quail might be a good specie to start with.

The hunting would need to take place on public land or one of the Private Land opportunities listed on the WDFW website: https://privatelands.wdfw.wa.gov/private_lands/. Perhaps over time I could obtain individual private land permission but that’s not something I would count on.

I’m interested in hearing thoughts on what part of the state to focus us. In looking at the private land opportunities it seems most are in the Sprague/Colfax/Pullman/Lewiston parts of the state.

If nothing else I will get to know some parts of the state better, and get lots of exercise.

Thank you.

Nature. It's cheaper than therapy.
