Staring at alfalfa and decoys

I guess next time they will join in and not be jerks.The look on their faces was priceless. My 15 year old is on cloud 9 right now he is a die hard goose hunter .He has been getting his mother to take him up there ever morning before school to watch this feild.

You did good Tommie, lol.

.Tommie

lottaa nada here.high and goodbye.

Thats awesome, congrats on the birds. I'm glad to hear that your son is all fired up about it, I love to see kids into this stuff. Thanks for the pic.

Saw plenty of doves, but most stayed far enough away that we didn't get any good chances to shoot.

Tommie. Please tell the story, how you got the birds and the jerks had to sit back and marvel. It's got to be golden

Very nice job by the way !!!

Headed out early with the boy his grandpa and myself got rained out so will try again this afternoon.

Great pictures the start of a great year.

Did some bow hunting this morning and will try this evening again.

the doves will pay for the lack of gooses here.i hope.

Switched gears from mourning doves to rock doves this afternoon. Grandpa stayed home so it was just the boy and myself. He hit his first bird on his second shot and ended with 3 himself and a total of ten for the both of us. Good eating tomorrow morning and a great day I have been looking forward to since March 2010 when the wife told me we were pregnant.

Ended up with 2. Got on the lake at 5:30 and there was already 2 guys out Bass fishing. They got a wake up on 3 1/2 shells.

My son had been watching this field all week in the morning before school his mother would take him up there and he knew their every move and where they was landing. My wife went and looked a few days for us later in the morning to see what time they were flying back out.She called me on Thursday and said another guy was there watching and ask if I wanted her to stop and talk to him and let him know we were going to be in there this weekend
.Yesterday when they went by he was there again and she ask our 15 year old if he wanted to stop and talk to him and he said no the early bird gets the worm. So last night around 8.00 we went up there and set up our lay out blinds to save time in the morning. At 4 this morning we pulled in and unloaded 4 dozen decoys and set up 8 family groups around us and a big hole in the middle. With everything set up now we were in our blinds and then here came the headlights around 5 15 so I told him to hit the headlamp to let them know we were already there. After 15 minutes of the standoff we decided to go talk to them and that's when he hit the fan with 7 of them and 2 of us with one being 15 I thought it would be best to be nice and offer them to hunt with us. That's when he started the B.S so I told my son let's go get in the blinds and get ready. So he followed us out and told us where they was going , I told him it didn't matter to me we wasn't moving and we didn't. Finally they got settled in about 6 then about 15 minutes later they hollered here they come. My son got on the call hard and pulled them in to us we drop 5 out of the first group and finished our limit on the next 2 groups.
