Thicket my 9 month old English setter & I found some woodcock today in my Piney Creek covert. She has never smelled a pen raised bird and only a handful of wild birds, but pointed the 4 woodcock she found today. The first 3 she crept in on and bumped but the last one she held and I was able to walk in and flush the bird. I've got a smile so big my face hurts. rofl
Here she is locked up on the last bird.

Went back to Piney Creek yesterday and Thicket put on quite the show. Pointed 5 woodcock with the last point being a double flush. Here's a couple of pics.

That is awesome Greyphase.. I don't think there is much more joy for a Hunter than a good dog.  |

Great pictures! When I had my Brittany's I used to look for woodcock in March during the migration. It's times like that when I miss having a bird dog.

Good shot on that last pic, Gobbler. Glad the dog got to smell a couple.

Thicket and I found a pair of woodcock yesterday.
She's hunting and pointing well beyond my expectations. Damn I love this pup.
