Pheasant hunt today

I went this morning for a pheasant hunt instead of squirrel hunting. Did a good bit of walking and not a lot of action. I told the guy I was with we wouldn't jump any until we were almost back to the parking area. He said why is that? I told him because that is where they were dumped out and they tend to work their way back to that spot after a few days. We jumped two about 50 yds. from the truck. I got one and the other didn't offer a shot. Left the 870 Remington home and used the 686 Beretta today.

Many of the Sportsmans clubs stock Pheasant and Quail and the state DEEP stocks Pheasants annually. They released 2000 birds a few days ago and will release more next week for the last time this season. Every once in a while we get a visit from a lucky survivor or offspring, which is always a treat.
