As some of you may know, Alex came in from Chicago to get out of the concrete jungle to join my lab and I on a grouse and woodcock hunt. We hunted a few days, most of it was wet, but my lab worked the covers almost flawless. Big ended up flushing 19 grouse and 9 woodcock in the two days. Alex shot his FIRST wild bird over my dog. I was honored it was over my dog, and I TRIED not to gloat about it all weekend. Here are a few birds that had their flights permanently cancelled. Alex pulled a great shot on his bird, and so did I. But it sure didn't make up for all the birds we missed. Alex, I had a great time hunting with you, I look forward to bringing the lab down to Indiana this winter. You are more than welcome to hunt with Big and I anytime.....

Looks like a good time! I love how almost every picture of big has his tongue hanging out!

Lol. He runs hard, so that thing is always hanging out.
 
Sweet!
I can't wait to get together with Alex & Kill something!
I'm looking forward to guts & blood everywhere!
I'm sure it was all smiles all days!

Yo Capt....

Where's the split pants pic this year??????? :eeek:

:wink:
 
man, i havent been grouse hunting in years. I need to get my guns from my dad.
 
Kuzi, come up sometime this month and I'll take you out. I can ALMOST promise you birds. As a matter of fact, I am leaving here in a few minutes to go back up!
 
I'd love to go - but having never hunted or shot a shotgun, I'd probably not make the ideal hunting partner...
