South Texas – Wild Bobwhite Quail

bobwhite quail hunting in TexasNovember 6 -7, 2014
David, Dan and John Higman returned once again to the Dos Candados Ranch in south Texas. The ranch received great spring rains giving way to several needed hatches. I drove from Wimberley to the ranch and it rained the entire way. The guys reported a tough morning of quail hunting in the rain. The dogs pointed a few coveys and some quail were taken but the group spent a good portion of their morning getting the quail truck stuck in the mud. The afternoon was not much better. We found numerous big coveys, shot some quail and continued to get the truck buried to the axles!

The following morning was clear but a strong wind from the north blew continuously. We found a dozen coveys but 11am. We enjoyed some great covey rises and shot some birds. I left the group at noon and later received reports of a very productive afternoon with plenty of quail taken. Great to see the big coveys and all the young birds.

Gordie’s Book


“There are some things I knew about Gordie White before I read his book…and one important thing I did not know. I knew that he was not only an experienced hunter, but a passionate, with a genuine love for wild places and wild creatures. I knew that he’d been brought up as a hunter, and that this is, essentially, his life as well as his hobby, both his avocation and vocation. It’s my chronological misfortune to consider him young, but he’s filled his years with a tremendous amount of experience, from Canada to Africa and back again, with multiple stops in between. I knew these things because we’ve shared African campfires together…and I knew one thing more: Gordie White is one of the good guys, honest, self-deprecating, not given to the shameless self-promotion that, in this era of mass communication without accountability, turns inexperienced ‘wanna-be’s’ into self-proclaimed gurus. But there was one important thing that I did not know about Gordie White: The man can write! Although I’m sure there are more, there are two things that make a book like this worthy of reading. First, the writer must have a genuine story to tell. Second, he must be able to tell it. Gordie White passes both tests, and has given us a great story, worth telling and worth reading.”
