Share your hunting story
I was just filling out a schedule of Outdoors/Recreation stories for the print product when I realized that I do not have an idea to write for the Nov. 21 issue.
So, I thought I’d leave that to you. I would like to report on a unique hunting story from the past month as submitted by you. Send your story idea to joshua.russo@lee.net and I will take it into consideration over the next week.
So, if you have a memorable story that you would like to share, feel free to send me the details and all the journalistic necessities - the who, what, when, where and why - to my e-mail.
And as always, if you have a picture of your animal that you would like to share, send it to the e-mail as well. Be sure to include some info on the animal, your name, the location of the hunt, and the date and time of the hunt.
Happy hunting.

Well, we temporarily lost a dog pheasant hunting yesterday. Followed shortly thereafter by losing a young hunter who abandoned his assigned blocking spot to chase a downed rooster, and got a bit turned around. All in the same sunflower field. We went home with the dog, the hunter and the rooster!
Then there was the time my wife mistook west for east and headed away from the truck as the sun went down over the west river prairie, a very lonely place in the dark.
Have fun with your story. Pheasant hunting has been great and will only get better as more crops come out of the fields. I see a few more waterfowl moving into the area, but deer were scarce where I hunted on Friday.
