Title: No Rabbit but....
Post by: RC on December 03, 2010, 04:06:00 PM
I was walking a large cutover with lots of tree tops in it hoping for a shot at a spud...thats swamper for rabbit. Anyway I came up on a blow down and heard some quail making the excited chirping they do when they are about to flush. I eased forward and one hopped up on a log and got shot. cool thing is I had adozen store bought ones thawing in the sink.RC

That is cool. I have tried to hunt them with a bow before I did a lot of shooting and only got one. Great shooting RC

Nice!  I thought it was a wood cock at first glace, but then it has been 40 years since I have seen a quail in Michigan.

When the "hawk" flies, something dies!!!

RC It's good to see you're keeping the "hawk" tuned in.

Good shooting buddy!

God bless,Mudd

Nice. I flushed up a covey the other day.  The fire ants have decimated the population around here and it was exciting to see them.

I thought wild quail were extinct.  I had to train old Lucy with store bought birds.
