Upland Hunting - General

[Wyo37]

Sage grouse are probably my favorite bird hunt.

Planning already for next years sage, blue, and sharptail hunt. I'd like to take all 3 over points in one trip. Should be easy to do in 4 days.

Where we are now, sage grouse is hunt by lottery only, 2 birds per season. I love sitting in a blind and watching the birds on the lek.

What an experience, sitting in a tree stand hunting for white tail and a Ruffed Grouse sits on your head lol. There's video of it on instagram.

Asian style reduction on Bobwhite quail last night, the misses loved it.

Reduction recipe?

I use Yoshida’s as I sauté, then add a bit of water and corn starch.

On liberated chukars.
Dusty and The Marlboro man in the vast wilderness / public lands of Connecticut.

This was a beautifully work. A good but calm and steady wind helped her a lot to do a good quartering. She kept safely away but close enough so I could flash the bird myself.

Down south of Freer, TX chasing Bob's and we got into some Blue's.

Is that brown one a pudelpointer or gwp?
The pudelpointer is becoming almost a default versatile hunting dog in America. It speaks a lot about the breed.

 

[Tex68w]

That's Sundae, she's a Puedelpointer. She's a fantastic dog but she refuses to hunt with other dogs, she's a solo show. She'll be re-homed soon to a buddy who hunts with a Harris Hawk.

It was near freezing (33F), windy (15-20 gusting to 25), constantly drizzling and the birds were elusive, but we still got on a few wild Bob's in south Texas this past weekend.

Looks fun. I was planning to head south for quail this yr but drew an aoudad hunt. Couldn't really swing the time off for both trips, and the aoudad trip was pure luck to draw.

But this year it's on. Gambel's, scaled, and mearns.
