Chris Cox and Eric Pinkie drove down from Valparaiso to do some duck hunting at the Carlyle walk-in area and get some upland hunting at Sandy Run in the afternoon. Eric brought his German Shorthaired Pointer, Dixie, to do the retrieving and upland pointing. I stocked the Clubhouse Field with pheasant and chukar and Dixie hunted them up. For spending the majority of her hunting time stuck in a duck blind, Dixie did well covering the big field and finding the birds. The ducks didn’t cooperate in the mornings but the pheasants gave the trio some nice action.
