Who is going?
Birds/fields/permisssion all locked down?
Dekes preped and ready?
Dog in tip top shape?
Thermos cleaned?
Bug spray still potent?
Gun plugged?
Duck stamp & HIP number all in place?
vaccinations up to date? (YOU, not the dog)
I used to do quite a bit of it but got tired of all the running around trying to secure permission and chase down the birds in different fields all the time. Then, it seems like all the good hunts were next to or too close to houses and even though it might have been 500' plus, I didn't feel comfortable banging so close to kids, dogs and tree huggers.
If I got a call next week to accompany someone on a hunt, I'd load up all the appropriate gear and do my part to help all the golfers and local soccer players.
How do you like your coffee and what is your favorite donut? <grin>
