A steady rain the day after Thanksgiving didn’t keep Joe Lawson and Doug Forbes away from a pheasant hunt. I donned some rain gear, stocked the Clubhouse Field with birds and we all headed out with Curly leading the way. The pheasants didn’t have any difficulty flying through the drops, although a few preferred to escape by foot. After one trip through the field, I got Mac, Doo and Sol to find the escapees. On our cleanup trip we found a small covey a quail and a couple pheasants. Bad weather and all, enjoyable afternoon in the field.
