need2hunt Posted December 5, 2006 Report Share Posted December 5, 2006 Good heavans when did I get so old I just got back from doing a little pheasant/rabbit hunt my shooting was very weak today. Shouod have had a limit of both, ended up with 2 rabbits and 1 pheasant. I went to my dad's place first (which is where I got everything). I chased 2 other roosters around there but never got them. So I called up the owner of another property to see if I could stop by there and try to get my second bird and they said have at it. As I started toward the corn food plot about 50 birds took off (49 hens and 1 rooster) they headed out into the prairie grass field and I headed out after them. I think I kicked up everyone of those hens twice. Ended up seeing 4 more roosters and I missed the easiest shot I had all year on one. The prairie grass field is about 30 acres and I cris crossed it twice. by the time I got back to the truck I knew I had overdone it and right know I am sore frrom head to toe. I know, I know - whiner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texan_Til_I_Die Posted December 5, 2006 Report Share Posted December 5, 2006 Re: oooouuucchhhh!!! I know what you mean. I just finished walking several miles of overgrown CRP with snow drifts up to 3 feet deep. It's having to lift your legs so high with each step that really takes it out of you.

Tominator Posted December 6, 2006 Report Share Posted December 6, 2006 Re: oooouuucchhhh!!! I hear you man. After the surgery, and basically laying around for 2 months I feel it quick. I went out and picked up waste corn in my neighbor's field last weekend, and tightened up my hamstrings for about a week. Nice long hot bath is a good cure.
