Just returned from Pheasants in South Dakota. Great trip, lots of Birds. Went with Wilkeshunter from here and his friend Bruce. Along with a loooog time hunting friend and his Son. We tramped along behind Merlot and Clancy. If any are looking to test their Dog, legs and shooting against Wild Pheasants, I can highly recommend Birddog Bunkhouse for all three.

On the way, outside of Chicago thing were a little slippery.

As the others finished up the day trying for one more Bird, Merlot and I watched them flush a couple more, along with others flying in to roost for the night.
