My first and foremost passion in life..... Waterfowl hunting.
Doing my part to manage the Northern Virginia deer herd.
Took my Malamute bird dog for a walk the other day, she flushed a grouse, so we brought it home. Were an awful lot of snowshoe rabbit tracks, may go back and look for some of them. Plenty of moose tracks also, I'm just as happy we didn't run into any of them. No bear or wolf tracks in evidence.
Will have to load up some more small game loads for the 71.
That sir is some gorgeous country. I can't wait to liberate myself from being near the big city, but sadly that's not in the forecast anytime soon.
Have a couple pics from The Great Bunny Safari.
The old Wonderdog inspecting the results of the hunt,
Actually, I'd had a Uberti copy of a Colts Navy hanging around loaded for a year or two and thought I'd freshen it up. The bunnies were overrunning the yard that year, I'd step out the door and 6 or more would scatter. I got 3 bunnies with 4 shots, one handed. First shot I'd forgotten how high it shot. Had one very fast hangfire, but all shots fired fine otherwise.
