I'm seeing fewer quail and pheasants, but chukar  sand Huns seem plentiful.   They have provided plenty of heart stimulation this fall.

Monday's hunt. 3-4 covies in 4 hours is not bad. Dogs outperformed the hunter this time!
More success last Sunday. Photos to follow...anyone else out there having a good season so far?  Ditch parrots don't count!!

2015 was a great year. Had a lot of great hunts with my kids and friends. Also meet so other great chukar hunters out there. My dog finally turned on and went from a bird busting non retrieving foot warmer  to holding tight and a 200 yard retrieves. My kids suprised me this year with little complaints even in bad weather and hiking up to 13 miles in a day.  They loved holding the birds and adding feathers to their hats. Got my first chukar double this year.  Saw lots of great coutry. Kids found some opals, agatized petrified wood and a fist size Elensberg Blue. It was a great year for hunting this year is going to be even better. Me and my dog are slowly getting it.

Joe, great pictures. Looks like you have some happy kids there. Is that a red setter I see? I use to have a red setter that I hunted chukars with. I sure miss that dog. Where did you get your dog?

Looks like the young man is hard on the natives (rough grouse).  Good job
