			Rich I hope someday we have birds to hunt again. The phesants I have seen lately I can count on my hands and I know I would have to go back at least a month to fill one hand. See some chickens but there hard to find a lot of country.

			Mother Nature is  pretty resilient and  I think the birds will make a comeback. 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	We have very few wild Pheasants where I live anymore. The change in habitat, & predators have taken their toll but once in a while I'll see one in my travels and smile.  |

			What a great story and a great hunt. Would love to get into some grouse. Been along time since I seen one in CT.  I also have to say, I have a soft spot for the straight grips!
