Arizona Quail Hunting for Wild Birds

These wild quail hunts take place October through February. Each year, prior to hunting season, all of the hunting locations are pre-scouted. This determines quail populations, and where the birds are hanging. Hunting may take place across the entire state of Arizona depending on populations of wild birds and the particular species that you want to hunt. In most cases it is necessary to concentrate on a single species each day. Generally speaking, Arizona hunting is for Gambel’s Quail, Scaled, & Mearns Quail. Let us know which species you want to target before your hunt.

Wild Arizona quail hunting becomes more limited each season, but can still be incredible. We suggest going with a good outfitter for a great experience.

All guides will have at least four dogs each. It is fun to watch the dogs range wide in the open expanse of Scaled Quail territory, and then come in closer when hunting the sparser cover that the tight-holding Mearns Quail live in.
