I assume you were hunting on one of the commercial plantations. Would you care to share the name? Thanks.

Thanks guys, I was waiting for a report on your Morrison Pines hunt. What a great looking place. It had to be good when even the puppy got into the action.

Angel to bad you couldn't make it this time but we have booked four days for the same time frame next year. That pup is a Cocker Spaniel and he is 12 weeks old. He was flushing birds and found a couple of cripples. Next year he will be awesome.

That's good Rich. That's something to plan for.

Way too tame for us - want some more of the wild, windswept plains of the NE Texas panhandle. Birds so wild one of their favorite flushing tactics is to fly directly at your face!

Well Kevin we too had some going right at the face ! That little Cocker spaniel was very close to being kidnaped to Michigan.. She was a sweetheart with a whole lot of drive.....If Jason (the guide) had turned his back on Sat as we were leaving that dog would have been gone........

Rich; that will give you some idea of how really strong the winds blew down there......the gun was originally a SxS11

Eric; hunting cockers are the best and the most fun of the flushing breeds IMHO. Both times in Scotland they were the preferred dog of the beaters driving through the dense woods. I've never hunted behind a Boykin Spaniel but would really like to; Jim Hall has one and she is a real sweetie.
