Pheasant Camp 2014
We had another awesome trip and are just truly blessed to be able share experiences like the these! We started the trip going for broke. We decided to hunt for wild birds. We didn't know if we would see birds but we didn't care, we were just happy to be hunting. We hunted most of the morning, about 4 hours and to our surprise saw two pheasants a rooster and a hen! I saw the hen flush wild in the distance into a safety zone. The rooster we heard cackle in the distance, we worked toward where we heard the noise and Dugan got birdy and just zeroed in on him and and the rooster took him to the left of us and into another safety zone where he eventually flushed him! Those were the only two times Dugan acted birdy. It was a hard hunt and Dugan did awesome and was just on his game!
Here are some pictures of the habitat.


We then decided to go to area that we knew would have a better chance holding birds. The state releases birds in the area but we are unsure in the frequency and we tend to stay away from areas that look to have high hunting pressure. We hunted the whole rest of the day and it was definitely tough, the weather was nasty and we logged a lot of miles on our boots but it was a blast!
More pictures to follow!
