Pure greatness. I've walked a few of them up but never seen on pointed. Same with Wilson's Snipe. In a previous post Bill stated he had not seen woodcock pointed. Enjoy Ox. With the temperature today I did not have high hopes but with all my Christmas shopping done, I had a window and opted not to waste it. I pointed the truck east, cranked up some CCR and hung a foot in it. After a couple hours driving we arrived to 79 degrees. I put the GPS collar on the pudelpointer, put my vest on with a collapsible cup and several bottles of water. Put my shotgun together and we hit the woods. I love exploring new places with a good dog. This was the first time I had hunted this area and needed to be home by dark before company starts showing up so we had a short window. I thought the area had potential and we hit the woods. The area was more open than I usually hunt. I was relaxed and enjoying a good day just me and the dog and was able to snap a few pictures of cricket on point. The brush was messing with the focus so the pics are low quality. Hopefully you can get a feel for what we were up to. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2021/12/full-62286-329082-6c9378d2_6bfa_4b66_8333_85b332fe0a2d.jpeg) This one screwed me in the ground. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2021/12/full-62286-329084-ecbdd8ae_fc26_47c9_9632_1e751dfc9d86.jpeg) Limit is three birds. Each shot was through small windows in the heavy cover and we made it home before dark. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2021/12/full-62286-329088-23dddf3d_f6e6_4c2b_9bed_d8b650003174.jpeg) MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
