Wasn't able to make the Dec SD/'Boar's Head' trip with the UPH boyz as long-planned & anticipated, but did manage to put my finger on the spot on the map of deepest freshly fallen snow nearer to home in CO & bump-n-run straight to it for a day-trip yesterday at the crack of dawn first morning after the storm cleared. Met up with CO UPH bud 'cowdog' (Bill) & his new dog Pistol. A GOOD DAY OUT would be an understatement! We were in birds all day long everywhere we went & the usual late-season little demons were acting like perfect tight-holding bobwhite gentlemen, bursting out from underneath the snowy blanket in a sparkly, white spray of powder only after the dogs put their noses on 'em & pushed 'em right out from under our feet! Came home with a double-limit of fat roosters for the table (Bill gave me his on top of mine, since he had enough in the freezer already)!
Werks like a charm if you can time it right...
I would take a late-season hunt in the proper amount of freshly fallen snow (not too deep, not too little - 4-8" of fluff is sheer perfection) over opening day hands-down anytime! :cheers:
