    2015 opening day

    Put up two birds at once, only tried for one and connected well. Didn't try for the second, as I knew I'd have a tough time finding the first one. Got some help from a guy and his son, also dogless, finding my bird (nice fat hen), so I pointed them where the second one flew to. Was only out...

    Brought out a newbie

    My boss asked if I could take him out bird hunting sometime, I said "sure thing". I brought him out yesterday, in the rain and cold and we stomped a field near our work for about 1.5 hours. We saw a blue heron, and some feather piles from deceased pheasant, but nothing live. Even though we...

    .410?

    I've got an O/U 12ga that I just don't like. I'm thinking of trading it in. At my local gun store, two guns really caught my eye - both SxS's, one in 12ga and one in .410. I'm really leaning toward the .410 to use mainly as a teaching tool for new shooters. No, this wouldn't be aerial...

    Swamps

    Anyone have any experience with hunting pheasant in swampy areas? Finally got two today, one was in cattails about 10-12 feet high, and she flushed about 10 yards from me. The second was a rooster that was trying to get into the cattails when I got him. The area I hunt has a lot of marshy /...

    Opening day results

    Yesterday was opening day here in MA. Here's what happened. Saw one rooster on the road in the morning on my way to work - no shot since I was driving. Left work and got into the field around 1200. Saw one hen about 15 yards ahead of me, chased her for a while, couldn't get her to fly - No...
