The weather was horrible... snowy and cold... perfect for hunting!!
Bagged 12 Chukars and a hen pheasant!!

Oh and the Beretta shoots like a champion!!
Cheers,
Amit

Awesome, Amit.
Hunting with your dad; it doesn't get much better than that.
Count your blessings, bud.

Lovely snaps and a very good bag .
Tough conditions to hunt in.
Did I miss the snap of the birds ?
Nice looking dog. Is it a Pointer?

@dr.jk... not sure what you mean... but the orange vest is mostly to let the other hunters know where you are. If you mean it alarms the birds, than no... these birds are masters of hiding. They wont fly even if they are under your foot. The dog has to flush them out!!
@briha.. LOL thanks... ok I'll rephrase... the Beretta shoots exactly where I aim
@Sharief: No this is a place in Lanark, IL. Its about 3 hours from Chicago!!
@prashantsingh.... we just never got around to getting a good shot of the birds! Yup... it is a pointer. A German shorthaired pointer... his name is Rudy. I believe Abhijeet has one of these too correct?
Cheers,
Amit
