Great Helpers in the Field
After a long day of activity at the Chalome, 8 year old Landon, 10 year old Colton and dad set up on an oak canyon for the evening hunt. They had anticipated that pigs would come up out of the canyon into the fields. Much to everyone's surprise this hog somehow managed to get into the barley from a different area and suddenly appeared behind them. After a quick adjustment to the plan and a short stalk, Landon and Colton were a big part of dragging this hog back to a road. Dad was happy to have a couple of extra hands for the drag and the boys definitely earned their keep on this trip. They are eagerly looking forward to the next hog hunt at the Chalome.

After countless weekends hunting over the past four years, I finally got my first wild turkey on the Hedgepeth Ranch mid April 2011. The weather had not been very accommodating to date. My husband did an awesome job of calling him into range and I shot him just around noon at 23 yards. I could not have had a better experience or a better ranch to do it on.
Here are some cool pictures of my son Anthony's first pheasant hunt. He got the first bird after every one else missed. Every one laughed at our hunting dog, Molly, but she is actually very good. A couple members hunting the field across from us got to see her in action and couldn't believe it. We took six birds over all between the four of us and missed several more we were a bit rusty. It was a great way to start the season. - David Soucy
