Title: Good wet morning on the rez
Post by: buglebuster on October 28, 2014, 07:15:22 PM: Had a good morning in the rain today, put up alot of birds but only 2 roosters in range managed to kill 1 and lots of hens. Always fun getting into a covey of quail and splitting them up then picking them off.(https://hunting-washington.com/smf/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Ftapatalk.imageshack.com%2Fv2%2F14%2F10%2F28%2Fbbc4eebc5598cdf463ae1534d4a6d80f.jpg&hash=6dbd44b05658c71e654432ed0cdc564a0b8cb028)

Out of town this week. Just got a new shotgun and itching to get back out there!
