Pheasant opener

[hunterhawk]

Silly me! I have never hunted the pheasant opener and unfortunately never will again! Holy people! I took my almost 4 year old son out because he has been asking me like crazy to go hunting. Really wanted to shoot a bird so he could get even more excited about hunting but the pup and i only kicked up a couple hens! Sure wish i had some public to take him to! He did awesome.. almost made it through 2 whole fields before he asked me to carry him! I was proud of that and he still had fun even though we didnt pull the trigger and asked when we could go again.

Anyone else get out? If anyone has a spot i have a lab that loves flushing! And a boy that loves hunting!

I'm lucky enough to get to work today, get to go to good ole Mexico....

but sometime this week hoping to get out into the field. My English setter has been giving me his sad face and wants to get out.

I have several bottle openers but I don't have a pheasant opener. Just saying.

A small pocketknife does the job quite nicely

FYI: All public hunting in Colorado is overcrowded.

Overcrowded is an understatement. I refuse to hunt waterfowl on public anymore, was tired of 4 groups cramming themselves on a pond no bigger than a house.

I hit Kansas this year. We did pretty good. Took the older kids for the first time. We ended up with 14 roosters and 30 something quail. They had a blast and lots of trigger time.

We were in South Dakota last week 9 birds first day 25 to 40 winds with snow, the bird would pop up in the wind and gone. Second day no wind all 12 guys limited. All private land near Winner. The new Benelli 828U was fun and did not disappoint.

Could hear a few of the neighbors taking a shot now and again today.

The game bird outfit up the road about a mile was doing a brisk business this morning.

I went out and we got 1 rooster, flushed another but he flushed way early. Ran into a bunch of hens.
