bird hunting could have been better.

[Idaho Ron]

I had to help 3 families move from and into new houses on saturday. I hunted for chukar and Sage grouse on Sunday. We rode in on 4 wheelers to a area that is very rugged and not many people get to. Gretta pointed the first sage hen and Jacob in the wrong position to get a shot. The next point was a small covey of chukar that he missed. The next point was a large covey of chukar, I am guessing about 40 birds. The next point was another big covey about another 40 birds. The next two points were sage hens. The second sage hen point flushed just out of range. The last one Jacob got a couple of shots at but missed. We got into one last covey, another BIG covey 40 plus.
I shot a sage grouse and a chukar, but I didn't do much shooting because I was trying to get jacob shots. It is like getting a young pointer on birds. Here are some pictures. Ron

Nice pictures. Too bad you didn't get more birds but you'll get 'em next time. You're brave posting pictures of an ATV on here. I can't wait to hear some of the comments.

Sounds like you're off to a good start!

Washington Hunter, I use my ATV on roads that are open to trucks. Ron

Yeah, I figured that. That's the way I use mine too. But still I try not to say the word "4 wheeler" or "ATV" on this board!

Nice work on getting the young man out! Good pics as always.
