Great pics Steve!
Haven't had it in years but never spit any out. I am a sucker for happy endings and strapped cowboys.

Blues were normal blues, better be quick and be ok with forty yard shots. I carried about 10 high brass #6 in my pants pocket on each turn and when a covey flush wild I would switch over.

That's my buddy's son from Colorado 7 year old and he was up at 6am asking when are we leaving both mornings. Smiled the whole time. We had two nine year old girls on our pheasant hunting trip last month, joked that the pheasant camp will never be the same.
Kind of fun to be around young folks that dont have 12 aches and pains, always positive, and everything is new.

Nice! Thanks for posting! I love those plowed strips Most likely plowed for fire breaks, we are under fire bans.

I had similar results a few years ago with a friend who had a leases on the Nail ranch. It's somewhere west of Abalene. It's by Albany. I used to hunt it, the Stasney Cook and the Matthews Lambshead. Best Quail hunting around back in the 80-mid 90's. Who was your friend Bill?

Don't guess I ever met him but I might have. Memory is becoming fun the older I get.
