It is a GoPro mounted to the gun. I shot all four days last year with it, and with the wide angles it shoots you couldn't see a single bird against all those pine trees. I'm trying it again his year on some different settings. Hopefully we get some good results, but I won't know until I get home.
Another great day here today. Eric, if you remember the hilltop around that old feeding station we got into last year, we hit that again today. Dog went on point and Jason (our guide) said, "I think this is that single from earlier." It ended up being a covey of about 50 quail, nested all over that hill. Rich and I both shot over 15 times. There were so many birds, and the dogs were touching off so many trying to pick up dead birds it was like shooting a flurry. So many birds we couldn't begin to walk off all the singles. It was an awesome way to wrap up the day.
