Finally a rooster!

We put on an abbreviated hunt this afternoon (4:30-5:15) due to the 25mph+ wind. We saw 15 or so pheasants within a hundred yards of us but only 1 was within 40 yards. Dan made a good shot and knocked it down and Jax and Winnie worked together to track it down, reflush it, and Winnie was the one to finally track it down and bring it to Dan. 

The spot we hunted was an accident of the road system here. We wanted to get to the East side of the Turtle Lake WPA, but 25th Street turned into a dead end - so we just hunted that dead end… the pic attached is the ‘good’ part of 25th St.!

Going to go out for dinner to celebrate our pheasant at the best restaurant in Underwood. The fact that it’s the only restaurant in Underwood is immaterial…
