  • Join me and Peggy as we hunt for Montana's pheasants, sharp-tail grouse and huns throughout the great state of Montana. After an interesting start, we gain our mojo and finish strong.

    Thoroughly enjoyed your video - you captured the full spectrum of a bird hunters nightmare and joy

      Hello AK. You nailed it on the head perfectly! This was Peggy’s 5th season and I have never had such a rollercoaster ride with Huns like this year…there’s a perfect last day hunting in part 2 that completely showcases this love-hate relationship. Stay tuned!! Happy New Year.

    Greetings from Colorado! Very cute dog. Always pay attention to the movements of your dog. I hunt with Labs and many a times, I have missed to see ducks in the sky, but the Labs have indicated otherwise. Happy Holidays and good hunting.

    Great clip. Where were you hunting. I'm live in western MT and planning my first trip to eastern MT this fall.

    • @castblast4063

      Greetings MT D! Not sure where to start because Peggy and I traverse the entire state all season. We had 80 days last year in the field and hunt from Ninemile to Glendive….
      I use to love the Scobie area but that area gets a lot out of staters, though when it gets cold, it definitely keeps the fair weathered folks away. Plentywood is kind of the same thing.
      It seems the further south you go to get away from the high line spots, the less out of staters you see. Glendive and Baker are good with a ton of public land and block management places. If you stay in Baker, then you can easily shoot over to South Dakota for easy pheasant hunting.
      Good luck!

      Hi Steven. It also took me a few secs to learn what had happened! Luckily Peggy has learned to stay away from porcupines… skunks not so much….

    Those misses are painful to watch so I can imagine how you felt. Are you looking at the bird or at the barrel? What chokes and shot are you using? Silver lining is Peggy gets to find more birds.

    • @castblast4063
      @castblast4063  7 месяцев назад

      Greetings HO. Well, I try and get my sight on the bird first thing. I don’t have near the issues shooting pheasants and sharpies. I use IC and M chokes.

      True!! Ha. Unfortunately, we’ve had both. But at least Peggy appears to have learned to avoid the porkies…skunks not so much…

    Lebron might be the best athlete in the game but he's about 10 notchs below Bird in actually playing the game...Bird never stopped moving, always in the right spot, passing, quick as hell with a quick mind and quick release, he played chess when most others were playing checkers
