QUAIL AND WILD TURKEY
Variety Aids Zest and Excellent Bags
Role In Early Season Shooting.
Game Abundant Throughout .Pre
serves and Hare Sport Is Assured
for the Weeks to Come.
LIGHT rains only are
needed to make the quail
shooting the best in the
history of the local Pre
serves, added zest being
given to the spor,t by
the presence of many wild turkeys,
woodcock and an abundance of doves.
In a single day's shooting recently
two parties started twenty-two coveys of
quail, J. D. Foot of Rye, bringing in fif
teen birds (the legal limit) two wood
cock and a dove, and E. R. Johnson of
Philadelphia, twelve quail and three
woodcock.
On another trip Mr. Foot bagged a
handsome gobbler, one of seven wild
turkeys which moved about within
twenty-five yards of the anxious sports
man, but so located that he dared not
turn to shoot. Never have these mag
nificent game birds been more plentiful
and rare sport awaits the "patient" ones.
William Bryce, Jr., of New York, who
has been here since early in November,
is enjoying fine sport, but devoting his
time mainly to training two young
Pinehurst dogs, "Nell" and "Lass."
J. L. Gladwin of Dijon, France, one of
the early comers, found birds in plenty
in half a day's hunting and the same
rule is general for all who have been in
the field.
II. II. Stambough, John Stambough
and T. D. Wilkerson of Youngstown,
are late comers who will spend much
time in the covers.
H. B. Brundrett of New York, re
turns for his usual sojourn, bringing a
brace of fine dogs with him.
George F. Blake of Worcester, Mass.,
Benjamin Thaw of Pittsburg, and A.
W. Hay ford of Boston, are among
others booked for the immediate future,
for the weeks to come are counted the
best of the season.
