You may, or may not, get all of the birds in your package. We do our absolute best to give you the ultimate hunt, and only use top-notch dogs, but there are a variety of factors that are out of our control. Things like wind, weather, and shooting ability all impact the overall success of your hunt...not to mention these are real, live birds that have a mind of their own. 

At this time, we do not allow self-guided hunts. All hunts are guided by members of our Quill Feather team....and we select only the best.
