Slow yesterday for us. Apparently everywhere around us too. The morning was just dead calm, and it seemed like they were never going to start flying. It always amazes me how they can be flying good at sunset on Saturday, and by Monday morning, they've gotten the message. There was less shooting all around yesterday than typical on Labor Day.
At 5 years old this guy is darn good. He’s been pretty good at doing his job in the dove field since he was young, but now he understands exactly what he’s supposed to do before being told. Our recovery rate is considerably higher because of him, and watching him do water retrieves on the ones that fall in the pond is a joy.

Our Monday morning shoot was consistent but slow. There were lots and lots of birds in the field Sunday evening, guess they got their bellies full. They took forever to start flying at all. Scratched out 10 and lost a few to cutover. Daughter ended up with 7. She took my gun again and left me with youth 20. Probably would have limited if I had my 12!

I seldom invite anyone to shoot my place here at the house. Ever since my shoulder surgery, a buddy has shown up at the house and helped me on the farm without me ever asking for it. I invited him to shoot yesterday evening. We should’ve easily limited but he was shooting one of my 28’s for the first time. Ended with 24.
