Kevin Wade brought down Kristin and JJ Davis to help him out on a pheasant and chukar hunt.  We started out into the light snow with Sol leading us to the birds in the Clubhouse Field.  Kristin was new to upland bird hunting, but soon got the hang of the game and starting knocking down the big birds.  Doo and Ava came out to find the birds that got spread around the field .

Troy and Alayna Williams brought out their young, brittany puppy, Josie to introduce her to some quail.  Josie found the quail I stashed in the milo strips, did a little pointing and then chased the running a flying birds.  Great new experience for the family and puppy.

Tom and Kevin Diekroeger did some quail hunting in the Pasture Field, but left a few in the timber and thickets, so Tommy and I went back out with his brittany, Abby to do some clean up.  We both shot a lot, trying to hit the birds darting through the timber, finally on my seventh shot of the outing, I got an open shot and knocked down a quail.

Todd, Jacob, John and Richard Burnett  came out with Dan Dragues and Matt Murphy for a pheasant and chukar hunt.  Jeff Powell brought out his dogs to find the birds spread around the Clubhouse and Pasture Fields.  Lots of birds and lots of shooting, they did it right, fun day in the field.

Jim and Adam Ziegler came out with their buddy, CJ Goldstein to hunt some pheasant and chukar.  Colton Wilkins brought out his setter, Bama and shorthair, Preacher, to find the birds in the milo and prairie at the south end of the Tinkerfarm Field.  The birds were no match for the pair of dogs or trio of shooters.

Joe and Tim Lawson came out to hunt some pheasant and quail.  Travis Devall along with Zip, Patches and Sadie did the guiding for the birds spread around the Clubhouse Field.  It was a beautiful, warm, spring morning, not exactly perfect for upland bird hunting, but the birds mostly cooperated and the spent a nice morning in the field.

Bo Baer picked a nice, spring day to bring out his buddies, Gary Dodillet and Mark Mitchell for a pheasant and chukar hunt.  Jeff Powell   brought out a setter, brittany and a cocker to find, point and flush the birds from the Clubhouse Field.  The dogs found them all and the hunters only let a few fly away.

Larry Kleiner set up a hunt for a bunch of friends, Jeff and Whitney Gray, Dave Schumacher, Bob Dasenbrach and Doug Hayes.  They brought along brittany, german shorthair and two setters to the quail coveys I stashed in the Cabin Field.  Bob caught the hunt on film and came back with nice footage and a bunch of quail.

Jim and Michael Geiger came out to hunt some quail and chukar.  Travis Devall brought out his three dogs to find the birds in the Clubhouse Field.   The dogs and the shooters were on the ball and cleared out the field in record time.  

Karolyn Eilers and Jim Jacobs came out for a chukar hunt.  Before we started hunting chukar, I set out a couple quail singles for Karolyn’s new springer pup, Chipper, to find and chase.  Chipper found the birds and really liked chasing them around Karolyn’s feet.  Then Curly and Mac got to go find the chukar I placed around the Clubhouse Field.  Jim and Karolyn did a good job knocking down the birds they found.
