"A friend and I sought out Dave to introduce us to Mearns Quail. A new species for us. Dave is providing A-1 service. He is quite knowledgeable of the birds habitat and habits. He runs a healthy string of happy Pointers, Brits and Labs. The dogs are a pleasure to watch work game.
I have hunted wild upland birds with pointing dogs in now 10 states over the course of 44 years.
Dave provided us with all the infrastructure to enjoy a great experience at a great value."

"Dave is a master guide with abundant talent and enthusiasm, and he knows his area and the quarry intimately. He worked hard and put in long days. He went above and beyond our expectations. We hunted Mearns Quail for two days and the Gambel's and Scaled Quail for one. Dave's string of English Pointers, Brittanies and Labs are seasoned and enthusiastic, and Dave handles them expertly. Dave loves his dogs and each of them has a great personality and they respond well to his handling. The Patagonia region of southern Arizona is spectacular. Great trip."
