On top of accessibility and Climate one of the key advantages Arizona has over most Quail Hunting Destinations is that Arizona is home to three huntable species of Wild Quail which include Mearns, Gambels, and Scaled Quail. All threes species of Arizona Quail are dependent on timely rains. In the case of Gambels Quail they require Winter Rain, Scaled Quail also like Winter Rain but will respond to Summer Rains, Mearns Quail require or respond to Summer or Monsoon rains. The Benefit for planing an Arizona Guided Quail Hunt is that Arizona always has huntable populations of Wild Quail for Quail Hunters to pursue. Our licensed and local Arizona Quail Hunting Guides like to target all three species during the course of a guided Arizona Quail Hunt. Ensuring that our Clients have the opportunity to harvest an Arizona Quail Slam consisting of the three species of Arizona Quail.

Located in S.E. Arizona, The El Coronado Lodge is the only all “wild” Arizona Quail Hunting Lodge in Arizona. The all-inclusive El Coronado Lodge offers our clients the rarity of a luxury accommodation featuring private rooms, great food and beverage, plus three species of wild Arizona Quail which include Mearns, Gambels, and Scaled. In 2021 there was a change in ownership, bringing the total acreage to an excess of 150,000 acres of private and inaccessible Forest Service and State Trust Land in Arizona and New Mexico which we are permitted for. The Primary Private Land that we hunt has been managed - and in some cases restored - for Quail habitat. The Lodge and Hunting Program have been featured in Covey Rise, Shooting Sportsman, Grays Sporting Journal, and other sporting magazines. The El Coronado Lodge is the finest wild bird hunting lodge of its kind in North America. This unique venue is hunted 6-8 times per year and slots are limited to 10 Hunters. Orvis Endorsed Dave Brown Outfitters operates on a 2 Hunters : 1 Guide Ratio and we do not mix parties. Hunters can expect to have a shot at harvesting the coveted Arizona Quail Slam quite easily during a three day hunt as Mearns, Gambels, and Scaled Quail can all be found on our Ranches. Furthermore, due to the intensive Arizona Quail Habitat restoration practices that have taken place, Wild Arizona Quail species do not fluctuate as much compared to areas or properties where there has been little or no Quail Habitat Restoration or management.
