Mr. Bob
Had a wonderful quail shoot this past Sunday on Maryland's eastern shore with PGCA's new member Kevin Cordell. I was toting my go to upland gun, my VH 28 and then I changed guns midday and took my PHE 20, the last one produced. I just had to bag a couple of birds with her and she did'nt disappoint me. The first point of the day produced one of two doubles with the trusty 28 that day witnessed by fellow PGCAer Kevin. I'll be applying for my pins shortly. The weather was perfect, 40 degrees, damp and cloudy so the scenting conditions were the absolute best. Kevin was shooting a lovely Rigby 20 bore and a gorgeous Fox CE 20. The Rigby is in the first photo with the PHE. That's Parker on point on the last bird of the day.

We had 50 birds released and bagged 45. I've hunted wild quail for 40yrs. and these birds were just as explosive as any wild ones. Truly a great day with Parkers (the gun), Parker (the dog) and Kevin (the Buddy). Wish you all could have joined us. My boy Parker (the dog) has a new nickname, Hoover. He had 40+ solid points and the retrieves to go with them. Hoover refers to the vacuum cleaner. He just sucks up the scent and leaves nothing behind. On one memorable point a single flushed and I just clipped it, breaking a leg. As it flew across this stubble field to a tree line 125yds. away I could see a leg dangling so Parker and I took off after it. Between the original point of the flush and the tree line Parker pointed 6 more birds which were dispatched with aplomb. Upon reaching the treeline Parker found the expired bird and brought him out of the cat briars. I returned to the area of the original flush which started all this with 7 birds in the bag. What a great day with a great dog, great guns and a wonderful friend to share all of this with.
