Glory’s Lone Pheasant Hunt

Our Pheasant season started the middle of October here in WI. We are fortunate to have public land owned by the Department Of Natural Resources. This is state owned land that is open for public hunting. We live very close to two different property’s that have many acres. Each hunter is allowed two roosters a day while out hunting. When I go hunting I take all three dogs because I want them all to get exercise and enjoy in the hunt. They all can’t retrieve a bird since I can only get two birds and there are three dogs so someone always misses out. This year Gambler has really excelled in hunting and has turned into the bird hog, he is so clever and fast he gets there the fastest and won’t give up his bird.

Glory can’t catch the gman.

So since I feel Glory has been getting  jipped (well Nellie has been getting  jipped too but she has had many years of pheasants) we decided to finally let some of our pheasants out of our pen and do a little pheasant hunt at our house. My friend Ross came over to hunt with John and I video taped and took pictures. I set out 6 hens for Glory in the marsh and the hunt was on.

Yippeeee it’s all me me me.

Glory’s first pheasant just sat there and wouldn’t get up so he got that one herself. I should have a video of it by the end of the week.

I think there is another one here!

 

Why yes there was one here.

You missed, shoot again!

Hello….shoot again!

I got a good lead on this bird, I can get it.

It went 200 yrs but I got it! This is so much fun.

Can there be one in here?

Why sure there is.

Can’t these guys hit anything dead?

Got another one.

Time to go find the one that went down a mile away.

Sometimes I pretend to be a pointing dog.

Is it really in here?

Well hello little pheasant.

Fast as fast can be you can’t get away from me.

This little buggar is fast.

Almost got it.

Almost…

The tackle.

Touchdown!

This is my last one, can I please play with it?

Watcha doing with my pheasant?

A great hunt!

Glory was in her glory and really excelled in her pheasant hunt. Nothing to worry about her hunting abilities, just get her away from the bird hog and she can get her own birds. Good job Glory!
