RCC, yes, goobers and peanuts. Montana seems to have its own name for a few things. The first hunt in the spring is for gophers, which aren't really gophers, but ground squirrels. In north Colorado, they call the same animal "rock rabbits". Then in Montana and Saskatchewan they can call pheasants "chickens". and the same name applies to sharptails not far away. All areas have their colloquialisms, Daryl, around heah' as well. Peanuts are goober peas, or goobers, or ground nuts. Pecans are pee' kans around here, but puh khans' up the road aways. Bobwhite quail are buhds (birds) or pottidges. Gophers aren't mammals at all, but a great big ol' tortoise that gets up over 30# and lives to be 100 yrs.old, that burrows in the ground and shares his hole with rattlers. Cartridges are cottidges. Wild muscadines are bullets. Cottontail rabbits are brier hogs, and every snake that hangs around water is a moccasin. I could go on and on, but this is a thread about game pictures. SRH
May God bless America and those who defend her.

I'm real late to this pic party. Probably the last hunt of the Minnesota season for me and my little springer yesterday, out for just an hour and a half in SW part of the state as snow was falling. We broke off early to stay ahead of bad road conditions on the drive home. Previous snow was only a few inches in open fields, but light cover was mostly buried, and NW edges of heavy covers drifted in almost impassably deep. Ten degrees and sweating! Gun's a 16 ga. RBL, choked SK/M. Jay

Hi all, went out today (season is getting short!), nice day, little wind and temp around 10 above. Anyway, today was Will's day!! He limited out and his shooting was back to normal. I'll tell you what, he sure can shoot that 20ga Browning BSS/Sporter! He always shoots well with that gun. Proud of him!!! BTW, I didn't even get a shot off today...oh well, I'm proud of him! Will and his BSS: Best! Greg

Ah, but I wasn't on the couch...I really went out, but Will did all the walking and brush busting, I sat in the truck and used my laptop to peck away. Funny thing, no birds flew inside the truck or even near it...odd!

As I'm usually the person who takes the pics it's fairly rare for me to be in them. Not sure who took this pic nor that a photo was even taken of me until I downloaded the camera images onto the computer. This grouse was taken with a 16ga Arrieta 871.
