So I hunted birds three days on my neighbors ranch in SD. Wow is all I can say. My older dog Lucy came up lame after putting a bird in the bag on the first day. The youngster Tucker and I had to get it done by ourselves. For a two year old he handled the volume of birds very well, in range and focused, excellent nose and a very good retriever. Tucker is going to make me a fine bird dog. A couple of limits and a wonderful trip.

Hey all, well, I went out today solo, wonderful day weather wise, sunny, 45 and mild winds. But, few birds, I did manage one and alas flat out missed one, oh well!

Anyway, I used my 12b H&H Royal (can't rotate the pic, sorry for that!)



Will see what tomorrow brings.

Best,

Greg

Greg,
Nice picture and beautiful gun. You'd think the birds would drop out respect to a gun like that!

The old tractor in the picture appears to be a Farmall Regular, made in the mid to late '20s. I.m not as much up on old trucks, what's the truck in the other picture. Both made good backgrounds for the pics, excellent photo work as well as the dog work & shooting.

Miller,

That looks like an Chevy utility 1.5 ton (prob a flat bed or tow truck?) from the early 40's. Super neat truck...

Miller,
The gentleman who allowed me to hunt his land collected Farmall tractors. I would guess he had eighty or so along with a few McCormick Deering and an early John Deer or two. His father beautifully restored a M12 Farmall.

The truck is a 41 Chevy and he has another full cab for it.

Thanks for the kind comments but really all the credit should go to the land owner. I have had Springers for twenty years now and that is some of the best bird hunting I have experienced. His good taste in old iron makes for a wonderful back drop for photos. The 39 Ford pick up will make a good picture if I am lucky enough to hunt the place again.

Steve

Hey all, this weekend is the end of our Deer Gun Season, so we tried to fill my daughters tag. Unfortunately, she wasn't able to. My son Jim and I did some bird hunting as well. We saw birds, but without a dog it was tough. I did manage one. Weather wasn't the best, cold and windy. But being with the kids was a success for me.

BTW, thanks Karl for all the kind words!!!

Best,
