Re: The Season Almost Over

Saturday hit the swamp again and flushed a hen in morning and rooster in afternoon so season most likely ended on consecutive hits (unlike Monday when I went 0/9 with 16 shots fired from one of my SW.....it was simply one of those days where everything looked right when you pulled the trigger but r...

Re: Hunting for Woodcock

What a difference a week and high wind and rainy conditions makes.

Looks like woodcock are on the move finally. Should be much improved in the good areas.

Re: Hunting for Woodcock

I spent way too much time in a spot that usually has standing water but was dry and saw no birds. If you can, find spots with water. The birds that are in flight will find it.

Re: Hunting for Woodcock

Thanks. I needed to take the longer barrels out to take them through their paces. Last year the 28's were never off the gun and my shooting, at least in my head, was so much improved I didn't want to break the spell. The shorter barrels are definitely choked for the close in work that woodcock most ...

Hunting for Woodcock

Well, the migration has been so delayed/poor in the areas I hunt because it has been so hot and dry that I put off getting out and instead concentrated on bow hunting the beginning of the rut. I finally couldn't stand it any longer and got out for an 11,000 step stroll in the concentrated areas I hu...

Re: How do you warm up for bird season?

Steggy,

I have some pepper, and I think there might be some fly shat in it.

Can I send it to you to look at? LOL!

You can keep half the pepper and all the fly shat.

I'll bring a Bologna sandwich for you to Hauseman's in June.

Thanks so much!!!!

Re: What, no upland hunters with Foxes?

I plan on hitting my traditional grouse area in NE PA next Saturday with Reynard, my custom 16 gauge but for now it has been bow hunting and waiting for the chase phase to pick up. The rut should be in full swing the first week of November and I'll spend all my free time trying to poke holes in Odoc...
