Yesterday between appointments I figured I would try to get the dog on a bird. I drove to the spot that normally is a 15 minute walk. Got out of the truck and the dog got "birdy" in the ditch. Walked into the draw and she flushed the rooster, I did my part with one shot, and she retrieved it to hand. Can't beat that. I turned around and went back to truck after lots of praise hoping to hit the same spot this afternoon. After a 10 year hiatus from pheasant hunting, man is this fun!
