    What was your best shot this year?

    Was out on public land and dogs kicked up a nice rooster. My partner shot twice and missed and I had a long shot with the bird going straight away. Thought what the heck and shot once and to my surprise it went down. Few minutes later my dog retrieved it. One of the few times I hit something...

    Lodging recommendation near Desmet - Arlington?

    We stay here every year, very pet friendly, and the bird cleaning facilities are nice. They also have a freezer for the birds after cleaning them. Works fine for us. There's a little restaurant not far away where we have breakfast. Staff is super friendly.

    Went out this morning with a friend, he missed the first two roosters that the dogs kicked up and was feeling dejected. About an half hour later the dogs flushed another one and he nailed it. While walking back to the truck the dogs flushed another one that he downed. He's all smiles again...
