I was out busting big country for blue quail on Sunday, which is new game to me... I've only shot one quail before, on a pheasant hunt on a ranch near Fredericksburg last fall, so getting a chance to work on coveys over a pointing dog was interesting and a lot like Huns. Like Huns, these quail don't necessarily hold for a point, which I find endearing and familiar.

But I've got to get up north next fall for some wild Huns. Do they range farther south than Montana, does anybody know?
