Early Season!

In my only outing thus far in the field for early season honkers was not the success I was expecting it to be. We were hunting a field that had plenty of birds working it for a few weeks.

The temps were relatively low for September 1st and that may have been what changed the birds movements. We were able to harvest a couple of honkers from the first group that came in and that was all we had to work with for the rest of the day.

The following weekend I put away the goose decoys and took out the over and under shotgun for some fast gunning for the MD dove season. Half way through the dove shoot I realized that I should have done some skeet shooting to prepare! A box and half of shells later and a limit of doves were on the ground.

In a week I will be headed to Saskatchewan Canada, to put the smack down on ducks and geese. I hope to have some good stories and pictures to share when I return.
