This is why I’m glad duck season is over – otherwise, I’d never have stopped the insanity of getting up at 2 a.m. all the time to wander around in heavy waders and hunt birds that were anywhere but where I was.

Who am I kidding? I’m not glad.

Phillip – love your quote there at the end! It’s been said that the first time you go chukar hunting, you do it for fun. After that you do it for revenge.

I hunted chukar once. As hard core as I like to think I am, that sport is for masochists. When I finally got back down the cliff, I signed off on chukars.

Seriously, big fun should hurt a little bit. Otherwise, everyone would do it.

I’ll give you all credit for trying to get late season, well educated Chuckars. My knees ached just reading your story. They are wiley birds and I certainly understand having to at least give it a try. I’ve them a few times and in case some readers don’t know; they are birds who run uphill and fly down just as we hunters get close to them. Quite punishing!

I’ve bird hunted for pheasant and turkeys, but neither of them sound anything like the hunt you all just went on. It sounds exhausting just reading about it. But I completely understand – the hunting blood in all of us, and the chance that “right around the next corner or bend” could be what we seek, is what keeps us going….time after time after time.

And that cold pizza looks kinda good.
