Warm start to the season

Well the next 3 days are supposed to be hovering around 30C here... what a poor excuse for an October! Hopefully it cools down soon so the woodcock start migrating. It's been crazy dry, hard to find even a puddle for the dogs to cool off in these days.

I've been running the pup solo since the season started as it's her first season and between work and the kids my time is limited. Yesterday I decided to run both dogs together. Literally 10 years to the day when I shot my first grouse over Jake the old man put on a show. He had this beauty young red phase up in the air and in my vest within the first 10 minutes on the ground. His age is definitely starting to show - he still goes hard but after about 40-45 minutes he was out of gas. Not the endless hours he once had. But I'll take every minute in the field I've got with this guy.
