Last pheasant trip

Last pheasant trip of the 2010 season
After waiting for the weather to clear, on Saturday it was clear and cold.
We started hunting at 10am with the temps at around 10*F . After about 1 1/2 hours of hunting this years good spots we had our limit of pheasants.


We stopped to visit local folks and then watched college football the rest of the day


On Sunday we left about the same time, the first bird was a very long retrieve, Libby would not let it get away.

I had my limit soon, and we hunted the rest of the day trying to get Gary and Jeff to shoot better. Shooting better at the end of the season makes a big difference, as the birds are very wary and spooky.

We stayed the night and returned home on Monday in very good weather.

The lost week between Christmas & New Year

The day after Christmas and the weekday after new year is a total waste of time if you are trying to do any sales or business in our world.

Soooo, It looks like there is finally going to be some snow coming our way on Thursday of this week.
I know (those of you in the frozen north are saying) "you poor soul" we will give you some of ours.

I talked it over with the dogs :)
and it has been decided that pheasant hunting with snow on the ground is "the Best". We are getting ready to go to the hunting grounds leaving on Wednesday or Thurs depending on the road condition forecast.
