Oct 10-11th

Went out this last weekend. On Saturday, i left Scout at home and ran Ruger. he ran very well. His range is opening up, probably more that with Scout around. he stays about 30-50-20 yards. Works slow and diligent in the woods. IT was very windy, and about 30 degrees. Probably 25 mile winds. I never saw a bird at the cabin. I am pretty sure most of the woodcocks have left already.

On Sunday i went on the afternoon with both dogs. We say 4 woodcocks, not that many for this time of year. Also saw 4 grouse. Scout pointed 2 woodcocks. Ruger did 1. All the grouse were bumped. But they dogs are slowing down when they seem them.

next weekend is my first trip to South Dakota. Should be interesting.
