Nice brace of birds and shot with a great gun!
As far as aging game meat goes in my opinion it's the only way to go unless you enjoy chewing on old shoe leather. If it's cool (30's & 40's & not over 50) I let my pheasants, ducks, geese, woodcock or whatever other game bird I somehow manage to hit with a lucky shot sit outside on the woodpile in the shade for one week before cleaning them. After that they get soaked in salt water for 24 hours, rinsed, spiced up with salt, pepper, and garlic and refrigerated in zip lock bags. Been doing it that way for 25 years and have always had good results.
