Is anyone going for pheasant on Sat. I can't[mad] I'm going to Florida for the weekend. How do you think the snow is going to affect them? I heard there is alot of snow around the Flatbrook area.

I used to hunt pheasants mostly after a fresh snowfall, without a dog it is quite easy to track them in the snow and they typically flush well in range.

Tons of fun actually, cant wait to do it again if I can ever bring myself to buy a Pheasant and quail stamp again.

Also a blast when you run into the tracks of a covy of quail, gotta love the cove burst as a surprise even though you know they are close by.

Damn I miss the exhuberance of hunting in my youth. Guess a lack of responsibilities allowed that.

A few inches would be fine. Not 10 to 12 like i heard is up there. All the cover will be under snow.

they usually group so this is the time where youd get a double flush...they usually wait until your withing feet of them before flushing...

Snow doesn't bother them. They'll stay under cover while it's snowing. Biggest problem for them is not being able to hide to well after the snow from predators.

I'll be out at the 2 clubs Sat and Sun. Putting out a bunch of birds at both places on both days. [up]

I like to track the birds in the snow.
