Slap some bacon on a biscut and lets go, were burrnin daylight!

Dogs keep them out of the yard but they are in my food plots 8months out of the year. Last year I had a hen nest under some blow down jack pines right on the edge of the clover plots.  I don't hunt them at home so they aren't shy

Illegal. Pattern birds with boot leather!




 :yeah:    The problem I run into is running out of boot leather. Once I start patterning them then its game on. Supper sneak to about as close as I can then start running at them! They are real fast! I really need to learn to call them in?  :chuckle:

Couple more laws should be added to the list ...No blowing them off the limb and no drive by shooting ...Just my  :twocents: Wish goes on way to much !
Once again one hunter thinking his morals should be the law.

Title 77 RCW (Fish and Wildlife Code) address loaded rifles/shotguns in MDV.
Title 9/9A RCW address the concealed/loaded carry of handguns. 
There are exceptions to everything, of course...

PWOA, I mean this as a positive. Good for you for being wrong. It shows that with the regs you can read one thing and just get it a little wrong, keep reading, then get it right. Keep working them over and eventually they will make sense ( kinda ) and you will be good to go, knocking down toms and chasing critters.
