Mike, my 4 1/2" drop Baker that you were admiring might do the trick for you.

Mike, After some more thought about your situation.IMHO we may be looking at the wrong end of the stick.You over years of practice have be come a very good shot, this said I would be remiss to change my proven actions or equipment. Northeast quail that I hunted when flushed were more erratic asmuch as 270 degrees. Your southwest birds seen to flush much tighter, were as this, is the crux of the matter.

I'm getting into this late, but I have a couple of thoughts on this. I grew up hunting quail on our farm in South Georgia when they were abundant and there were areas where there was a convey about every 400 yards on field-woodland edges. Even with this abundance of quail I was taught two things 1. Don't shoot the covey to fewer than five birds. 2. Don't shoot a convey so late in the day than they can't get back together before dark.

Mike, Think I've found the solution to your problem of killing too many quail on a covey rise......I can make one of these for you.

Yes but be careful, there is a reason for the saying " Kill 2 birds with one stone"

That looks like a rare and desireable "cape" slingshot.
Best,

I think Mike is tired of our constant babble.
