In the Sandhills of Nebraska with my good buddy. Looked like it was going to be two days without pulling the trigger, and my attitude was deteriorating. Began our assault on some hills that looked promising, and a bird flushed 30 yds. from me but angled right toward my friend, so I had no shot. He rolled it, and that limited him out for the day. He headed back to the truck to clean his birds, and I headed off alone to try to give the Ideal its first taste of sharpies. I wasn't into my pursuit more than ten minutes when a sharptail flushed about 15 yards behind me, letting me walk by but not quite far enough...

This one in the bag, I walked on another 30 yards and another one got up, which I folded with the left barrel. Reloading before I moved, another one got up and I rolled him with the right barrel. A limit of three in about three minutes, and the rest of the afternoon contemplating my attitude adjustment.

Hi all, another good day, went out this afternoon with my son Will and Raina (of course). I was able to limit, and was lucky to get a nice double and Will got one. Raina really did well, the last bird I shot was wounded and sailed off about 400 yards into a grassy ditch (some thicker stuff BTW). Will and I got over to it and had Raina do her thing, she got birdy fast and before long she went on a point, and got the bird. Would have lost it without her. I'm very proud of her!

Anyway, here's my birds and my 16ga Arrieta 871 (this one is a New England Arms import with Boss style engraving):



Will with his 20ga Browning BSS/S:



And the hero of the day!



Best!
