2016 was a banner year for quail numbers and quail hunters alike. But since then the bobwhite has again fallen on hard times. Is it due to weather or other factors like predation or even the increasing number of feral hogs on the landscape, what about parasites?

Dr. Rollins is currently enjoying his 52nd season chasing these sporty little birds
Then it’s the buck everyone has been talking about. The Collin County monster taken by hunter Chad Jones. When I heard the buck was killed in my home county, I figured we needed to hear the tale firsthand.

The Green Score was 235 3/8 inches which would put the deer top 5 all time for Texas archery bucks.
