Pheasants + Phishing =Phun
 

Good lord, I was limited out in less than 10 min(2 birds) over Fancy today. Dont know why I brought all 3 setters. Used the GH 16 O frame. Then I went fishig and caught a mess of bluegills. A stud of a 150+ buck strolled by the other side of the pond, making me wish I had been smart enough to throw in my crossbow. The temp did get up to 70 today. Ticks are bad and found one imbedded in my chest while showering.

sounds like you had a way better day than most a field....lucky you.....charlie

Sounds like a great day Harold.

When I returned from Vt last Saturday night I found a deer tick stuck right into my side... stuck in good.

Wow, you had a dandy of a day Harold. I stayed out of the woods today due to the heat but am going out in the AM. Speaking of deer the movement really fell off with the moon and the temps here from earlier this week. Monday I was covered up in deer and some really good young deer. I had this teenager along with his brother 8 pointer that was just a tad bigger in the horn department along with a 10 pointer in the 130-135 range. All good enough for me antler wise but just younguns. All under 30 yards just tempting me to shoot. This will not be the first tag sandwich I have ate.:banghead:

I hate ticks.

A guy who volunteers in an organization I'm involved in came out of the woods with 44 ticks on his leg. Obviously stepped into a nest

Harold, good looking Brittany!!

It amazes me how ticks seem to be localized. I've been in the woods squirreling nearly every day of the season and have only had one on my pants leg. I hate the damn things also and am glad I've been able to be where they aren't.

She’s a better looking Setter....Some call her Fancy. Just to match the title he should have written her name as Phancy and shot the 20ga PH gun. All the more phun.

Brett, great idea, will carry the PH tomorrow, shouldn't need it's F/F chokes.
Yep, she's a setter, one of my 3

That's a dandy buck Randy, dont know if I could let that walk by. I own 170 acres in Ohio, and often tell guests not to shoot small bucks, as there are some monsters on my place. That one will be a real stud next year. Good luck. I am not much of a bowhunter, tough for me to sit still for a long time, but I can walk all day.

I know you can walk all day Harold. Brett, Chuck, and myself still talk about that 5 minutes we sat down at The Rock that one day until your patience ran thin :) Of course I am sort of exaggerating, a little. You got a lot of energy my friend which is a good thing. I saw "the other" 8 pointer this morning. Whew, if he makes it look out !

Help drag this little one out of the woods today in Eastern OhioHelp drag this little one out of the woods today in Eastern Ohio.

Harold - that guy looks like Kenny Graft... is it Kenny?





.

No, not Kenny, but I do see the resemblance now

Hey, I have a gun with Phull/Phull chokes I might be willing to part with for the right price.:rotf:

The little VHE 20 remains my favorite for grouse and pheasant

Well I can understand why. That Parker as accounted for a lot of meals. Come to think of it I am not the only one that has been on the receiving end of smoked grouse or pheasant at Ernie’s.

Oh yeah...!





.

I would have let him go....waited on something better.:rotf:....thats a great buck!
