Today was a long beautiful day in the South Carolina lowlands, we started around 9:00 and began an all day hunt for Quail. We take turns shooting while following English Pointer working dogs. These dogs were amazing athletes, zig-zagging back and forth through the tall brush and briars, scratched up and wet and eager to work. At one point one of the dogs was barking loudly and ended up chasing a huge Buck with long antlers, right toward us. I thought we were going to get run over by a deer while walking through the woods. We broke for lunch back at the house and then returned to the hunt after a session of shooting clay pigeons. The second half of our day resulted in more birds shot and more fun had. The weather was perfect and cool, with a beautiful sunset behind us. Now we enjoy some more wine and another well cooked meal. Tomorrow we do it again.
