Hunting Adventures







Calendar

|

A cloud of feathers explode in a blur at your feet, accompanied by
loud, rapid pulsing. The quail accelerates and rises rapidly—bullet-shaped
wings propelling it forward, while you try to regain your composure.
Almost reading your mind, the quail immediately drops to fly closer to the
ground, flying low and dodging bushes and cactus like a highly-skilled
nap-of-the-earth fighter pilot. It suddenly occurs to you that the element
of surprise left you no time to raise your shotgun before the quail vanish
into the underbrush. The adventure leaves your heart racing, but you
quickly head out in pursuit of the covey.
Sound like your kind of adventure? Then join WAHA on a
Quail Hunting Adventure. Hike through the
desert foothills with other adventurers and try your hand at hunting the
elusive and speedy quail. You will definitely bring home some great
memories of the adventure and fellowship, and hopefully some excellent
eating as well.
Everyone is welcome, including novices and veterans. You don’t even need a
shotgun, since there is some equipment available for those without, so you
don’t have any excuse for not joining the adventure. Responsible children
may accompany adults and hunt if they are familiar with firearms and have
adult supervision.

Quail hunters need a shotgun (improved cylinder or modified choke
preferred) and shotgun shells.
Other equipment you
should consider includes sturdy hiking boots (rocks), long pants (cactus) hat, sunglasses, camera and a cooler for your
birds.

Half day. Adventurers meet early
morning (6 AM) then drive to
our hunting spot. Hunting continues through noon.

Adventurers meet in north
Phoenix and carpool to breakfast and to the field. Travel time from I-17 and Loop 101 is
approximately 30
minutes.

No lodging is required for this adventure.

Groups of up to 25 adventurers
can enjoy this great
hunt.

Quail season in
Arizona extends from mid-October to mid-February.
