Hunted quail in Ga., Va., N.C., and Japan. Super all-around game bird. Super for dog training, one little rooster was retrieved over twenty times over that many training trips. Finally lost him when he landed in a small pond and drowned before my Lab got to him. Great memories! One Christmas afternoon was able to score two consecutive doubles while stationed in Japan by walking up coveys with a stray mix who hunted pretty well.My men adopted him after he would sneak into camp and steal their socks, his moniker was obviously "Socks"!
