I had the chance to take some boys on the youth hunt today. I had scouted these geese for a couple days and it was looking like it was going to be a good hunt. Ended up being a GREAT hunt. The boys shot 11 geese. The most incredible part was that 10 of them were BANDED! Every time we would retrieve one I was shocked to see another band. As per tradition, Mitch and I are still the bandless band hunters. Maybe someday I will be so lucky.

West Fork Duchesne River
Took the day off and went fishing on the West Fork of the Duchesne River today. Korey and Todd came along. This was a spot Korey had fished in the past and thought we would like it. The weather was cold and wet and the fishing was slow. It was still a good time though.

Labor Day
Went out after doves this morning with Tyler, Darin, Todd, Jordan Peterson, Korey, Levi, and Jayden. It was fun but we never even shot at a dove.

Finally, hunting of some sort is open again. Spent the morning chasing doves with Todd and Jordan Herzog. It was a little slow, only got a dozen. The sand burrs were horrible. The dog didn't stand a chance against them.
After that Todd and I went up to Beaver Creek to attempt to find some grouse. Chase flushed one pretty quick and Todd missed. The next one I was able to get a shot on and connected. It was way too hot though. The dog couldn't find enough shade. Can't wait to try again though.
