2018 Favorite Pictures of Your Guns, Birds and Game

I think JP's face in that pic speaks for itself. He's adapted to his new situation amazingly. He still enjoys chasing the ball, swimming, and hunting like he did before just in shorter spurts and with less rules and more table scraps.:D

He gets around well but it does take more effort now so he has only hunted short 20-30 min runs at first light when it's still cool out. JP hasn't got a bird yet this year, I know he will, but if I could project some human emotions on him I believe he realizes his situation and is happy just to be along for the ride.

Unfortunately he is not cancer free and I'm not pursuing anymore treatment. Not sure how long he'll be around but every day with him is a blessing and any walk behind him with a gun in hand is just icing on the cake.

That’s a tough deal but looks like you and JP are making the best of it. JP’s expression says it all!
 
Hey all, went out solo today and had fun with a hammergun. Took my 12b J. Harkom out and managed to get a couple. Sad thing is I lost one. He was hit, but got into some real thick cattails and Raina wasn't able to find him, hate doing that! But all in all a good day, beats work!



Best,

Greg
 
Got back from Ideal SD yesterday morning. Left a day early to prevent getting stuck in the snow. Bird counts are okay but they were very edgy. We scared many before we could get a shot.
Great trip as always though. This is a 1902 Ithaca Lewis grade 3 in 12 gauge.
 
My Lady dog put on an absolute show of beautiful work while in Kansas. Shooting a limit of roosters on pressured public land over staunch points speaks for itself, this little dog gets it.

This is Winnie, my 3 year old British lab. Experienced a first with her today, she pointed this pat eseason rooster in the cattails. I didn’t say a word to her as she held the point, I took two steps forward and he flushed which lead to his demise. Beautiful day to hunt in MN.
 
Hey all, yesterday my son Will came home on Christmas leave from the Army and of course we went out and did our favorite pass time bird hunting! We saw some birds today, but they were on the wild side. My son did manage to get the only bird of the day (I didn't even bust a cap) after our faithful GSP went on a solid point. It was wonderful weather and a pure joy for me being able to hunt with my son Will again!

Here's Will with our Raina. Will was using his Bernardelli Roma 3E



Looking forward to hunting some more with him and my other boy Jim.

Best,

Greg
 
Hey all, had a wonderful day today. My sons and I went out this afternoon for a short hunt and did very well. Weather was great and the company the best! Will and Jim were the hot guns today. Each of them got 2 and I managed 1. Raina did very well and is starting to fill the shoes of the old girl (Duchess). We saw more birds today than in previous hunts. They were on the wild side however, still a great day!

Will, Jim, Raina and our birds. Will used his Bernie Roma 3E and Jim his VS 3EC



Have to show off one of my favorite guns, my J. Blanch 12b

Hey all, well today was out annual Christmas Eve day hunt. Didn't do very well, in fact, no birds at all! Saw some, but they were pretty wild. Still I had a great time with three of the best hunting partners I could have, my boys and my GSP.

Jim, Will and Raina



Merry Christmas to all!

Hey all, went out today after Church for a short hunt. We had 8" of snow earlier this week and with the drifting, it covered up a lot of the good cover. So we were limited to where we could hunt for the short time we were out. We did see birds, but wild or hens. Raina did very well today, very happy with her this year. Jim was the only one who managed a bird today. Too bad Will couldn't, his leave is about up and he has to get back to Ft Carson. It was a great day with my sons!

Here's Will with his Merkel 16ga Royal, Raina and Jim with his Victor Sarasqueta 3CE



Best,

Greg
