Took Rumor on her first pheasant hunt. Up until now we have worked on Chukars, Quail, been out on woodcock/grouse and then waterfowl hunted ducks and goose but not Pheasant. We had a great time and she did awesome!

And my girl just can't stay out of water if she sees it. Face all dirty from water skum LOL:

 Good stuff !

 Heck ya ! it's worth it !  Just wwatching these guy's do their thing does it for me. Shooting is just the icing on the cake. I have one place I hunt that has state stocked birds & we won't shoot at them. We have in the past but now come to find out the local population that hunt's there for years have started rumors of a "professional" dog hunting in there rather then upset the local populus  we let them fly.
