Got out today at Pheasant Valley Farm with my Nephew (who goes to boarding school in NoVA) and my BIL who drove all the way from Winston-Salem to join us. With 5" of snow on the ground, and intermittent snow squalls throughout the day, it made for a memorable day of upland hunting. We bagged 14 pheasants and 4 chukar in 3 hours hunting over GSPs with our awesome guide, Karen, keeping us on the birds despite snow and wind. My TriStar Upland Hunter O/U performed beautifully, and I had to make myself put it down to give my old Montgomery Ward-branded Remington 878 some time in the field. Despite the wind and temps hovering just at the freezing mark, we never felt the cold. There's just no better way to spend a day.
