I finally have something to post! 1951 uggie sidelock (new to me) and a limit of roosters. It just doesn't get any better than that! CHAZ I guess Kaiser helped too. We met a guy on our way out with our two birds who was hunting without a dog. I asked "do you want to shoot some pheasants?" Amazingly enough he did, and he had a great time as well. CHAZ

Hi all, went out today and tried an area were we've done well in the past...well the past is the past! Didn't do squat, got up some hens and that's it. So I decided to try around my area and limited out in one of the shortest times I can remember....20 minutes. I hunted an old creek bottom that's by a cut corn field. This place is way off the beaten path, the only way to it is either thru the corn field (and the farmers yard) or by a banged up prairie trail. Got there and Duchess went on a point 20 yds from the truck, that was the first one, two more points within 50 yrds and that's all she wrote. Anyway, I was using my 12ga GDR made Buhag "Hubertius" It was a good day! Best! Greg

Wish I could have made it. I got to freeze my butt off over at Spiritwood. Looks like old Duchess did well!

Loving all these pictures, especially the ones with dogs. They all look good but as a setter guy, Tim, I have to say I have sure seen that look before.

Looks like old Duchess did well! Duchess better get a good nights sleep tonight. She has work to do in the morning at my place again.

Greg,
I have enjoyed all your posted pics, particularly with the boys and their bags, but the one of the gun & game that you posted earlier this afternoon may be one of the best framed near perfect pics that I have ever seen. Perhaps it is because of the engraving perfectly matched to the quarry. In any case, it is quite a remarkable photograph that does both the gun's execution and the game taken with a wonderful balance.
Thanks for sharing these with us. And thanks to all the other gun & game posters as well! Certainly makes for some enjoyable veiwing.

I think most of the pics this year are perfect for either a calendar or the cover of a magazine. They remind me of the days of my youth when I looked at all my uncle's outdoor magazines.

Thanks so much tw!!! I don't know what to say, what a wonderful complement. I assure you that my photographic skills are lacking, guess I just lucked out on this one. I did pick the side that shows pheasants and not the ducks on purpose, so I did think that one out. I'm trying each time to get good pics and try to improve. These digital cameras are a far cry than my trusty Brownie! Thanks again, I'm humbled! Greg
