John Cavaletto and Larry Ackerman came out for a quail hunt.  John brought his pointer, Burl and Larry his shorthair, McCallister to find the birds.  I stocked the north Cabin Field with some quail coveys and the dogs found them.  Some of the birds made it to the timber and the shooters made some nice shots through the trees.

Brien Guy came out for a quail hunt with his pointer, Rex and buddy Stan Soldner and his setters, Tex, Mutt and Pearl.   I set some quail coveys in the Clubhouse Field for the dogs to find and point.  The warm, sunny day had the quail on the move but they had a nice hunt with a lot of points throughout the field.

Gary Rogers came down to work his pointers and brittany on some quail.  I set out some quail mini-coveys around the Cabin Field in the prairie strips around the timber edges.  The birds flew well with some escaping into the timber to give Gary a bunch of nice dog work and some interesting shooting.

John McIntosh came down with his friend, Darrin Peters for a quail hunt.  I set out a couple of nice sized coveys in the Clubhouse Field and got Doo and Ava out to find them.  The birds were on the move, but they got a lot of single work and few doubles got up.  John finished the hunt with Mac and Sol cleaning up the quail and finding a pheasant.

Brad Hargis brought out his pointer, Annie, for a pheasant and chukar hunt with buddies, John Boles and Jason Jette.  With Annie working the field and the snow cover it was more shooting than hunting for the guys.  Still a few birds were on the run and they had a nice hunt on a Monday off of school.

Dwayne Ritchey and Amos Boggs came out to enjoy a snowy pheasant and quail hunt.  I set out a few pheasants and quail covey in around the Clubhouse Field and took out Sol and Mac to find them.  They didn’t need any help with the pheasants, but I had to show them how to knock down quail on the covey rise.  

Wayne Reichert brought out his son, Noah for their first pheasant hunt.  They picked a near perfect afternoon, with light wind and a couple inches of snow to track the wandering birds.  Curly and Mac found the birds and Noah knocked down most, only letting is dad get a few shots in.

Luke Holthaus came out for a pheasant and chukar hunt with his friends, Tim Onstott, and Clayton and Randel Zilz.  Luke brought along is shorthair Jud and Tim his shorthair pup, Dixie.  They hunted the pheasant and chukar I stocked in the Clubhouse Field as the snow came tumbling down.  Jud and Dixie did a great job and they had a nice morning in the field.

Bob Hill and Rod Reiner came out for a quail hunt.  Bob brought along his two German Shorthairs, Yeager and new pup, Gunner.  The dogs did a nice job finding the quail in the Cabin Field.  The wind and snow made the hunt a nice challenge and a lot of fun.

Greg and Anthony Ireland came out for a hunt with Greg’s dog, Daisy on a cold day when nobody else would brave.  The weather turned out nice with no wind, some sun, and a high temperature around 20.  The birds held in their coveys nicely and then flew like crazy.   A really nice hunt with the brothers doubling up on a pair of chukars and Anthony destroying a low-flying quail.
