OP jerry66stl Sidelock Joined: Aug 2008 Posts: 406 Likes: 1	A small group of were hunting "put-n-take" pheasants yesterday at an Illinois DNR site (Carlyle Lake). My friend Dick was carrying his camera. Buddy, his white english setter, pointed a legal hen pheasant, and I moved in to take the shot. The photo shows the hen flushing, and Buddy ALMOST catching it. Look closely, you'll see the bird just above Buddy's white head. I had to wait until the bird climbed clear of the dogs, before shooting. At about 25 yards it finally got high enough for a safe shot, and I took it. As a sidenote, the shotgun is a damascus barreled Remington 1900 SxS restored by Buck Hamlin. The low-pressure load was #5 non-toxic NICE shot, ahead of #7625. I thought you might enjoy this somewhat unusual photo. JERRY GOLDSTEIN
