Went Pheasant hunting today at Birds Landing. 4 pheasants and one Chuker came home with us. "Buddy" the Yellow Lab really put it together today and showing great signs of a good hunter. Next Sunday is the last day for pheasant until this fall.
Yes it was a great day. Today was the day that our yellow lab finally put together what hunting was all about.
Before today the phase "That dog don't hunt " applied. After today those birds better give a wise path.
I'm so proud, words can't say.
Hey Bill, glad you and your dog had a good day. I was down there in '86-'88, when sporting clays were just getting going. I never hunted Birds Landing, but did tear up their course a few times. I had been shooting with some guys from the US Exhibition Shooting Team up in the Seattle area before I moved down, about 50,000 rds a year. The locals wern't up to that level yet . I had fun while I was there!
Birds Landing hunting preserve and sporting clays is a full service, world class game bird hunting preserve and sporting clays course. Located in the picturesque town of Birds Landing, California, it operates on approximately 1200 acres of prime pheasant habitat adjacent to the Suisun Marsh, one of California's premier waterfowl and pheasant hunting areas.
Real nice folks run that place and make you feel like a good friend.
Google for Birds Landing for more info.
For many years I use to make a twosome day out of it. Hunt pheasant at 8 am (Earliest starting time, feathers need to dry to make pheasant fly well, i guess) then turn birds in for cleaning while I go and set on the banks of Montezuma slough which borders the club and bank fish for stripers. Or take my boat and after the hunt go for stripers and sturgeon on the Sacramento River.
