The Catholic Ladies did their usual great job, Biskits and gravy, breakfast casserole. On the way to our intended starting spot, Shannon spotted a BUNCH of roosters in a picked sunflower field. I opened the truck door, grabbed the Jeff, and turned Flash is on point in the middle of the road. Got to the ditch, Rooster flushed, killed it. Flash grabbed it and jumped back in the truck...Special delivery. Hunted the edge and got 4 more. Cleaned those up and moved on to our intended starting spot...Uncut feed (cane) head high. Hunted west edge, and killed 3 more. 11:15, all done. Senior center beans were good. Home at 1:20...nap time... will post a pic after the camera charges....Tommorrow is a 1/2 limit day..So will start later...Happy days are here again....Steve? I'll email you..Stay well all...

Sticks and stones... Better watch out though or Drew will single you out for making personal attacks! The Catholic Ladies did their usual great job, Biskits and gravy, breakfast casserole.

Sounds as if you are a road hunter. It must really work up an appetite walking all the way to the edge of the road. Very sporting!

Keith Last Dollar is my hero to even get out of his home and move about with his current medical situation. Walk a mile in his shoes and you might learn something Mike

LD; A 16 b WJ Jefferey sounds nice. Do you shoot RST's or something else? Let's see a photo of the 16. Hope you have a good pheasant season.

Buzz, you might remember when LD bought the Jeffrey a handful of years ago. A few of us on the forum thought the gun and price was too good to be true. I believe it was SKB who listed the gun on GB but was out of town away from the computer and couldn't answer inquiries about the gun. LD stole it. <g> Gil

OK! Last update on the opener! Nut fry at the high school was great...Served Lamb fries from New Zealand. Perfectly done and lots of em. Crowd was smaller than expected but even as a Free Will offering, costs were covered with a few bucks for the Athelitc fund. Shannon had honey do's so was hunting by myself this morning...cant get too adventurous. Slow moving today so didn't leave the house till 9:45ish...Went North about 8 miles to a Public Hunting area (WIHA). Hunted a 1/4 mile strip of weeds along a picked corn field. Had a few smart flushers but Flash locked up at the corner..The "Wee Jeff" helped me get a double.!!! Since today was half limit day, all done...Cleaned the birds, headed back to the truck..Looked a lot further away than when I went out there...Even with a side trip to get some deer hunting permissions, I was back home a tick before noon. Sauteed Pheasant breasts over rice with a cream sauce, over rice for supper...Grand weekend! Stay well all...
