Sort of pheasant hunting

[treedaddy]

I turned some pheasants loose New Year's eve. The birds flew well and the dogs are learning to retrieve. I haven't found a single quail this year in Tennessee, so I guess this is what its come to.

You do what you got to do to get the dogs into birds.
You have a nice looking setter there :thumbsup:

Hey, what's the bag limit in TN? I might be interested in hunting there!

Good looking dog. Funny the dogs don't seem to care where they come from do they?

Murph,
The bag limit in Tennessee is as many as you want to buy. We don't have a wild population here. I usually get a few guys together and we pitch in and buy some quail and pheasants. Quail are $4 and pheasants are $9. With three or four guys pitching in $50 each lets me set up a pretty good hunt. The man I buy from is out of quail for the year. He had 8000 in November. There are a lot of field trials in our area that need birds.

Off topic but what are the demensions of it? I keep thinking I'm going to buy a pre made one but keep thinking why when I can build myself!
