Pheasants in the Snow!

Man! I love chasing roosters in a fresh snow. Best time of the year to chase pheasants.
What an incredible weekend. We limited out for 3 straight days. Some great dog work and shooting. Boss #5s put the birds on the ground. No lost birds!

[@gregoryjamesaustin]

One of the best Pheasant hunting videos I have ever seen. Thank you for posting this.

Thank you for the kind words and watching! New one will be coming out this week:) hope you subscribe and follow along!

Great video, after the first few roosters I said out loud “this dude can shoot” my wife giggled. Nothing sweeter than a bird hunter who can shoot.

Appreciate your videos. Bringing back some good memories. When I was a kid growing up in north west Indiana we actually had a bird population. Not so much anymore but had a lot of fun going out with my dad and his buddies. Hunting over dogs is a blast!

[@marniemedina8995]

Wow! Great Hunt, this video is becoming one of my favorite upland hunting video's. Looked like one of those "magical" days in the field. Your success with the 28 GA has me looking at my 20 GA and thinking that I'm not as under gunned as I thought in the late season. Fun Fun.
