The ones I saw before they flushed were easier to shoot as you have your shotgun ready in shooting position.

Hunting pheasants is fun.
I think part of the fun of hunting pheasants with a dog is watching them work, especially when they get dialed into one. I am able to witness this from afar from other hunters hunting in the field.
Its a good partnership. Dog finds birds. Hunter shoots bird. Or Hunter misses bird and dog gives hunter a dirty look. lol |
Great post. Glad you are having success. Yes, they can scare the dickens out of you when they flush at your feet!
