Nice shotgun.Excited to see what the new pup, Waylon, turns into, currently 6 mo. old. Grizzly the old boy still loves every minute of the hunt.

That's a lot of hard work.
I had a very similar situation. I dropped a chuckar and he went way down hill, my GSP took off after it without really seeing where it went down. All the sudden he tried to stop on point, but his momentum made him take tumble down hill, when he got up he was on point, Without knowing where my bird had dropped. He thought he had picked up the scent of more birds, but it was the one I downed. Man I miss that dog. I miss all seven of my GSP's.Watched my older dog pull off an absolute mind boggling retrieve today. All of 300 yards down hill and he didn’t actually see the bird hit the deck. He just saw it sailing and falling. He just expanded his search on a line and after 4-5 minutes came back with it, broken wing and very much alive.

Finally got our season started with 3 days in SD then up to ND for 2 days. Awesome trip, lots of birds and some great dog work.
First Hun
These were all great but this first photo is exceptional! Well done all around.View attachment 780149A good year so far for Otter
You should be in for an awesome hunt. Bird numbers seemed great and you’ll have some cooler weather with your timing. Opening 3 days were downright hot. Good luck!Awesome. I’m heading to SD for the first time with the dogs in a month. Can’t wait.
Same. I’ve never been to SD. Never hunted pheasant. Never hunted with a dog. Going to be a lot of firsts!!Awesome. I’m heading to SD for the first time with the dogs in a month. Can’t wait.
