Just returned from the National Grasslands hunting prairie chickens with my son in South Dakota It was a bucket list bird for him. Conditions were extremely dry, temps were hot and the grass was not very tall. Lots of hunters and the birds were really spooky, sometimes flushing at 200 yards or more! It's a far cry from the last time I went 10 years ago. But we still had fun shooting three different hammerguns from Purdey, William Powell & sons, and Boss & Co. Most were shot with black powder.
