Game in Phoenix/Tempe area

[JonS]

I might be in Phoenix after Christmas with my Griff. Love to chase some quail or other game birds if there are any.
Please let me know what you know, I’d appreciate any and all tips and pointers. I’ll probably never hunt there again, but want to get the dog some work while there.
Thanks,
Jon

Not phoenix specifically but you have three species of quail. Mearns are the most fun with a dog. They are found in the hill country along the Mexican boarder. There are a lot of Gambels quail in the Phoenix area. They don't hold well in a covey but will hold as singles.
