Had an awesome morning with some fine young men! Started out about 7:30 at an SGL by me. My buddy John met up with me, the kids & Mike & Bill, their dads, for the first few hours with his 2 dogs(he could only hunt till 9) & we each took a dog out with the boys....... Second point of the day (first bird ran down a mowed strip & flushed way out ahead...) Johns dog Tucker on point.....second pic I got Tara backing in the pic, the kids are working the bird, Johns between the dogs in second pic. Johns other dog Chase, Taras brother on a rooster - flushed out the other side, no shot.... Not a good pic(many of the points were in heavy cover), my 10 yr old Buck(father of Chase & Tara) on point, kids got this one, nice rooster - this is the same bird Tara found in the next pic....they missed & Buck managed to find it about 300 yds down!!! John had to go so it was Buck & Tara hunting for the boys for the rest of the AM......4 birds to go.....Tara on a bird, another nice rooster.....missed it the first time, but not the second!!! Everyone with their limit by 11 AM, what a great day, I had a blast with these guys, very polite, nice young men, hunted safe & sure shoot better than I do.......LOL!! Probably put up 15 birds in all, most pointed, think only 1 was bumped & 1 put up by us. Had 2 points & flushes on the way back to the van too..... ;D my furkids sure had fun too. This is Buddy, Nathan and Nick:

We sure did, I'm going back out Monday after work, only going a half day, with one of the boys. Hoping for another good day! Didn't see anyone else out with the amount of birds we had and there were tons of people, kids & dogs. We had a great day!!

The heat didn't bother the dogs one bit, stayed in the low 80's.....they handle that pretty well. I'm quite excited about Thusday, after today the dogs are primed up and ready to roll!!!
