My son and I took the dog and the shotguns for a walk this morning at the Cooke Canyon Hunt Club near Ellensburg Washington. We found six birds and brought down 5 of them! My son used his lightweight 28 gauge CZ double and steel 6's. I used the 1930's 12 gauge Remington 32 over & under with Bismuth 5's. John shot 4 of the birds, letting me take one. :)

Maverick the German Wirehaired Pointer hunted better than he ever has! I had him at the Cook Canyon Hunt Club for remedial training a while back, and it seems to have helped him a lot. His points were rock solid! Beautiful day for the hunt as well and we're all glad that we did this today:

GREAT Job! Nothing like hearing that Cackle of a Rooster on wing!

That's a fun place, would take my pup there after season 20+ years ago. I'd go on a Monday in hopes of getting leftover birds from the weekend crowd. I mentioned that to the young man putting out the birds and he said I was the only one there that day and feel free to walk all the fields when I was done with ours. Gave him a nice tip$$$ for the permission. That went on for almost 6 years until he finally moved. Was not uncommon to end up with 6-10 extra birds a visit. And that was with a flushing lab. Miss that pup
