EARLY, EARLY NH GROUSE REPORT

[Labowner]

Thanks for the good news Steve, Otto and I are very happy to hear that.
I owe that dog one for his assist in my sucsesful turkey hunt this morning, while drinking a cup of coffee this morning he was spread eagle on the floor looking out the glass door into the woods, well it didn't take him long to covey the message that there something out there and I got up to see two Toms moseying threw the woods, dressed in a pair of white shorts a T shirt and slippers off I went to the back of the Suburban got my vest and Spanish 3 1/2 ten...I know another story.... down the trail I went got into the woods a hundred yards or so and made a call got a answer but they weren't buying so paralleled them on a trail for another hundred yards and got a nice 3 year old bird 9 1/2" beard and 1' spurs to come in back at the house and only gone 15 minutes.

PS think about coming down Tues. night 5 pm and shooting skeet at Major Waldron's, got three rounds in today.... don't ask.
