Girlfriend Adventures

My wonderful girlfriend, Becca joined me for an afternoon hunt.  We stuck to the trail to keep things fun and worthwhile.  We flushed the first grouse right away off of a small clover patch.  I was using my grandpas 870 and after a lifetime of tang safeties, couldn't quite figure out the trigger safety in time to shoot.  That grouse survived.  The next grouse flushed as we were cresting a hill about 40 yards away.  Yet again, no shots were fired and the grouse lived to see another day.  A little while further down the trail, a huge grouse flushed off of an embankment to our left.  It offered no shot yet the trip was a very memorable one for me.  I look forward to a lifetime of hunts with Becca.
