Sunday pheasants

We hunted Winnie tonight for a little over an hour on PLOTS land near Hazen, ND - the same area we hunted yesterday. She did a good job, but we don’t have much to show for it. She’s tired now and enjoying sleeping in the back seat. Overall, she’s hunting well with very little in the way of side effects (soreness, limping, etc.).

She put up 1 rooster, (behind a couple pieces of tumbleweed that had blown into a cut corn field), but given the lack of cover it was in, it would not hold for her to point it and immediately flushed in front of her. She was 40ish yards in front of us and Dan took a shot at it, but his first offering was probably when the bird was about 55 yds away - so not a high percentage shot…

We’re planning to go to Joe’s spot tomorrow night, so we’re hoping to have some pheasants to clean tomorrow night!

We saw some deer along the road driving home that were interesting. They were bigger and slightly different-looking than our white tails at home. Maybe They are mule deer? We’ll need to do some research to find out.
