As usual, the family got together for Thanksgiving and the traditional TG morning hunt. Myself, one son, SIL and five of my grandsons. Some with little experience as we only got nine birds.

Waiting for the hunt...........



My SIL's pointer and my gsp locked on a rooster.



The rooster flew low as he flushed then elevated quickly into the wind, made a big left u-turn with the wind picking up speed quickly. My son, just visible on the edge of the pic shot the bird. It came down about 30 yards from where he was shot dead in the air because of the speed and elevation he had picked up.



....and the happy hunter

Here is my new best picture. Taken this Wednesday when my son came to his first shoot, aged 10, he was polite and talked to the guns and beaters and really enjoyed the day. Meant an awful lot to me.

Very good picture and very handsome boy. Does he have to beat the girls off with a stick? What a great way to spend a day!

Best,

Mike

Hi Mike, he needs a haircut, but he won't... smile

Yeah, he has a bit of a girl tribe.

Let him have his hair and enjoy it while he can Tony. When he gets older and the wind starts blowing it out he can look back with fond memories.

You're out hunting me Greg. Between being swamped in my machine shop and trying to paint my house I haven't had time to hunt. We'll discuss this sometime at Ohm's over pie and coffee. smile
