Last month I combined trout hunting and sage hen hunting near Dillon Montana. On one hunt I was accompanied by Keith Szafranski. He is a nationally recognized outdoor photographer. He shared these with me today. Sorry – no sage hens again. But I think he got some great shots.

I like the king of the hill pic, and the vivid colors of all.

I like the second picture. Nothing says Montana like big sky, amber waves of weeds, and a rugged individual with a gun, ready to defend his right to bare arms. wink

Great dog pictures, too.

This was my second year with not a sage hen in sight. That just makes me wanna try again next year.

Last week the family and I hunted north central Oregon for a combination Mule Deer / Upland bird hunting getaway. No sage hens for us either, although we did jump a wild hog and plenty of turkey. We did get into some fine bird hunting however with tons of Phez, and flock after flock of Hun and Chukar to keep the shotgun barrels warm.

I think we will go back for another go as well.




We need to talk when I get back from S.D. I can swing another trip to Oregon, but not to S.D. One or two days we will be hunting the national grasslands where I'm told there are huns, sage hens, sharptailed grouse and pheasants. Can't wait.

Nice pics. To bad about the dry trip. We saw a bunch of them in the spring when I was there the last time I shot pdogs. We had a 2 day season on the Yakima firing ctr many years ago. If I remember it was nov 15-16 for a few years. I shot my one bird. Its the only greater sage grouse I have ever shot. It was lousy eatin, but a neat bird.
Good Luck in SD!
