Album: Gentleman Bob

Robert Ruark 'The Old Man and the Boy' - "I never knew a man that hunted quail that didn't come out of it a little politer by comparison," the Old Man said. "Associating with gentlemen can't hurt you."

Gene Hill 'Shotgunner's Notebook' - At the end of a day gunning quail, the summing up ought to center around having a good day rather than a filled limit. Good manners, unceasing care about safety, and the pleasure of the dogs come first. The act of hunting quail as well as the bird itself demand thought and care. Being a good shot is not nearly as important as being a good companion.
