Quail Hunt

Late January Quail Hunt

Saturday we took the dogs out for one of the last hunts of the year. We got into a few coveys of quail and managed to take five birds in the desert. Also got into two coveys of chukars, but they flushed a few hundred yards before we got to them. Odessa and Rebel hunted great together, going back out Sunday for the last day of the year.

Quail Hunt

Last weekend we did a couple short quail hunts in the morning. Dogs did great and we managed to take a couple quail and the kids got some rabbits.

Last Days of Pheasant Hunting

Few more pictures from the last days of pheasant hunting. The last few weekends we have hunted quail and found a few nice coveys and taken a few. Didn't have the camera so no pictures.

Last Days of Pheasant Hunting

Last weekend of pheasant hunting and it was pretty tough. Erin and I put on a lot of miles and ended up getting one pheasant each and a drake mallard.

December Weekend

Chris and I have had a couple of pretty good weekends of duck hunting. This weekend we shot seven ducks on Saturday and should have had a few more but we missed them. Sunday I went out pheasant hunting in the afternoon, it was warm and not much fun trying to walk through a foot of snow. But Odessa and I got a couple of pheasants. Next weekend we will head back to our new duck hunting spot, should be good shooting.

Pheasants & Ducks

This weekend we had a great time bird hunting. Saturday we shot 3 pheasants and a drake mallard. Sunday Chris and I shot 2 drakes and 1 hen mallard. It was a fun weekend and the dogs did great both days.

Idaho Whitetail 2010

This morning on the 2nd to last weekend of the hunting season I managed to take this nice 4 x 3 Idaho Whitetail Buck. Just after daybreak I used my grunt call and after the 2nd sequence of calls he came in and made a scrape. I had to wait until he was done to take a clear shot. This is the 3rd buck off that ridge. It was a great day.

Bird Hunting 2010

Chris and I went out pheasant hunting and I shot a couple pheasants while Chris tried for ducks.

Bird Hunting 2010

Chris and I went out bird hunting with Odessa the night before we went elk hunting. We got 5 quail and a rooster pheasant. And missed several other quail. It was a really fun night...

Elk Hunting 2010

Elk Hunt 2010

We went up for a week of elk & deer hunting at the end of October. We saw a few deer, but we didn't see any elk this year. We all had a good time spending a week in the mountains.

Elk Hunting

We did get snow on the 2nd day and went for a walk to see if we could find any fresh elk tracks. Chris shot a grouse and a snowshoe hare.
