Left the Parkers at home, but still got some trophies
We've been running the dogs at local WMAs in hopes of finding new coveys and potential woodcock coverts. The dogs love it. Our puppy, Prairie Rill, is enjoying some of her first outings, still trying to figure out what this it all about.
We must be hitting the antler drop just right, as we have been finding them with some frequency. Only a few woodcock points on early arrivals, however.
Great times to be afield.
