Looking for recommendations for outfitters for woodcock (wherever wild populations exist) and wild quail (AZ, NM, or TX). I don’t have a dog and am willing to travel to wherever needed for a quality experience.

They are agile!Honestly, you better get some shooting in! I believe woodcocks are harder to shoot than teal. Very erratic flight. Then find an outfitter.

Michigan is the top ranked state for woodcock harvest. Not knowing the level of guided hunt you're interested in, I'll only offer you to Google "Michigan Woodcock Guides".
As a volunteer woodcock bander in Michigan, I'd like to remind folks to check every woodcock they shoot, anywhere, for a leg band.
Here are the first 3 that come up on Google search:Thanks for the response - I’m open to all levels of guided hunts!
Even self-guided? Not to be that diehard, public land, DIY guy . . . but, good numbers of woodcock can be found in northern Wisconsin in late October and early November. Tons of public land and no dog necessary. Thick popple stands in lower areas, especially near tag alders and you’re good to go. I kick them up all the time grouse hunting here in NEW.Thanks for the response - I’m open to all levels of guided hunts!
Funny, woodcock are the only game bird I rarely miss. Now grouse, on the other hand…Honestly, you better get some shooting in! I believe woodcocks are harder to shoot than teal. Very erratic flight. Then find an outfitter.

No woodcock in AZ. But two of the quail species here are huntable without dogs, definitely can be done DIY.Looking for recommendations for outfitters for woodcock (wherever wild populations exist) and wild quail (AZ, NM, or TX).
