SKB, you guys are doing well.

I covered 22 km this weekend and had two shots at one bird with negative results, so this pic has no feathers.

I had a great trip to South Dakota. I tried to talk several people into going but it was just me and the pups. So glad I did it. We will likely hunt Nebraska some in January and that will be days of walking for a flush or two but it still will beat the hell out of television.

Maybe I'll see you in NE. I'm thinking of heading that way too. I have a friend there that I hunt with. I'm still hoping to score a chicken and a grouse to complete the "slam".

Birds here can be pretty good, and then empty. Not sure why the variance.

I do know some public fields that have been holding chickens the last few years. Actually been seeing more of them than Roosters. If you are coming to the sw corner let me know.

May not get quite that far west, but not sure. Mark is in the Lincoln area.

Hey all, my sons and I went out for a quick hunt today. Will got one and so did I, Jim was able to assist on mine. Saw lots of birds, but very spooky! Had to cut the hunt short, Raina got a nasty wound from a corn stalk. She's okay, looked worse than what is.

Anyway, Jim, Will and Raina



Wishing you and yours a Blessed Christmas!

We got an early start on a beautiful Christmas morning for a few hours before family time at mom's.  Floyd brought his sister who has two Brittanys which are  littermates of Pop and Sadie, Floyd's dogs.  She had never seen a hunt before.  She baked a batch of Brittany cookies for the trip and we had a great time.  We couldn't start where we planned on starting because we saw at least 20 jet black mature feral hogs cross the woods road where we planned to stop and begin our Christmas Day Brittany Blitz with Sadie, Pop, Willa and Abby.  We got a good half mile up the road and began our hunt.  However, excess water in the woods created small islands of land surrounded by water which adversely affected the dogs because the water defeated scent trails and we initially had lots of wild flushed birds.  We found a more suitable area and found birds.  Tough shooting but we got a few.  Yeh, I screwed up the photo. Again...Merry Christmas to all.  Gil.

Super, Gil. So, what did Floyd's sister think of the dog work?

Merry Christmas, those cookies are artwork!

Stan, she's had her oldest Brittany for 11 years and doesn't hunt him. Same for the 7 year old. She's never seen dog work on birds. She was amazed at their capability in finding birds. All four dogs worked the woods simultaneously. Gil
