This is a photo of our pit in Illinois. We shot over 500 ducks and well on the way to 200 geese this year.



2 afternoons ago right at the end of LST a group came in and we got 5 at the last minute. Dog picked up 4 but it was dark by then and no one remembered where the other was and dog could not find it.
Packed everything up and headed out along the far tree line in the background. One of the guys was shining a Q Beam and saw the goose standing out in the middle of the field in the millet.
Got the dog out, lined him in the beam and sent him. When he got about 50 yards from the bird which was a good 150 out in the field, the bird tried to make a get away. No luck. It looked like one of the car chases you see in L.A. where the driver bales and the helicopter keeps the light on him till the cops get there.
I am going to figure out how to set this up in a HT I judge this spring. Realism to the last degree.

2 things, Mike:

1) remind me not to run under you this spring.
2) feel free to kidnap me from December to January.
