Went dove hunting yesterday...
« on: September 02, 2008, 10:51:46 AM »
...... and Eldest neatly folded her first dove on her first shot.  The same bird I missed. Twice.


Though there were not a lot of birds, it was a Great Day.

Awesome! I both love and hate getting shown up by the kids, but mostly I love it!

I'll bet that you could of gone the entire time without seeing a single bird and still have had a great day. There is nothing more precious than bonding time with the kids.

Unless it's bonding with a good bird dog! :)
Gun related issues are, by nature, deadly serious.  Still, you have to maintain a sense of humor about them.

The dove hunting comment is from Sept. 2 last year.

Seems like there is a lot of them around right now.  Hope they hang around a bit.  I have a new dog that hasn't had the pleasure of retrieving one from the water yet. :)
