If your system works for you, stick with it…👍

Not enough, frankly…we were in birds, big time…could have used a few more. 2 weeks earlier my group of 6 got 17 in the same 1/4 section in about 90 minutes, no snow that time…it’s helpful to have a few guys on different sides of a particular field to keep them from pouring out…sometimes the...

Ask your Japanese chef…he’s gonna cook it for you.

Smoked oysters and crackers for a snack in the truck…

You can always revert back to your somewhat rigid, prejudicial ways…”let go and let god!” guide you for one year…or, “let go and let dog!” guide you if you’re dyslexic…go for it, you might surprise yourself! ☮️🌈☀️

My red bead/sight got knocked off my main bird gun 20+ years ago, my shooting improved…same thing happened on my Benelli ultralight a year or two after I bot it, same thing…that’s my go-to gun…

I was kidding…🎅

I’m sure PF has engaged in egregious fraud, abused staff in various ways, engineered devious ways to benefit major donors, etc, all at the expense of average donors, our dogs, and most importantly, the pheasants. But I’ll still send my $75. 😁

24 and 32 gauges are all the rage in that area…28’s are way too pedestrian…2” 12’s are gaining in popularity out there as well…

Yeah, snow fell for several hours fairly intensely…hunted til about noon, felt like we were in a Les Kouba painting! Much fun.

4 of us traveling on Sunday…hunting mon-wed, maybe thur…warm temps melted some snow yesterday, 3-4” forecasted sat with strong wind…birds bunched again, I’m sure…looked at SD 511 and saw my area via the highway cameras…not too bad at this point…lows around 16-25 and highs 30-40 on hunting...

One thumb up, one thumb down…or, both sideways…

I don’t hunt small covers for reasons attributable to pain issues, etc, but because they’re there…sometimes it’s a time issue…I’ve never considered it a hassle, or unproductive use of time driving, loading, unloading…most of my spots, public, private, etc are all within 10 miles…some of my small...

I’m on #3 from Andy, couldn’t be happier…my pup is really doing well…hunts like a 3 year old….

I got a few do-overs on the trip…3-4 more! At least 1 miss, but a couple good kills that came down and damn near hit me! It’s always a strange feeling holding my gun where I do on those…I hold above the bird, and they fall…not sure if I’m even swinging with the bird…usually I’m crouching down...

Very huntable over the past week in the part of E/SE SD I’m in, but that means little at this point with the blizzard that’s coming, though the snow on the ground has a bit of a crust, so I hope it won’t blow around too much…more snow coming Saturday, maybe 5-6”….winter’s here. Hunting was...

Mustard is always near….I’m doing other things to combat cramps, but I always have it handy!

These little silly’s wouldn’t have ever preyed on my pheasants, they’re too cute to do that…😂

They’re my buddies! Bottle feeding, as well as wet kitten food…several townsfolk are asking me about the kitty’s…I’ve had visitors and they enjoy them…I’m whacked, I get it…😆

I’d post pics of these little guys! Not sure how. My little buddies!
