Some go to the fields to reminice about the days they hunted hard and in plentiful times. Others go to the fields to create those memories so they can reminice later in life. I'm still in the creating stage. If there is an absence of game, I'm disappointed. I may find a way to have a good time anyway, but I'll sure as heck have a better time if game is plentiful. And I don't have to take a limit to have a great time, but it helps. One of the best hunts I had this year was last weekend with my 410 and new pup.
I'm going out tomorrow with my dog and 2 other hunters. I hope we do well on filling the bag. If we just get half a dozen quail each, I'll consider that a great take. Frankly, if I were a better shot, I'd take a limit much more often as I certainly can get a limit's worth of shots a day fairly easily. But I don't have a pointer and I'm not sure I'd trade the excitement of an unexpected flush.
