Bottle & Mic edition: chukar opener debrief from the field ... 3 friends, 3 dogs and a few more birds

Join my friends Dave and Tom on our somewhat-annual gathering in the desert of southeast Oregon for the chukar and valley quail season opener. In what's become an informal reunion of new and old friends we reminisce on old dogs, an epic opening weekend, some foibles and incredible hunting. Trigger warning: there's a lot of philosophizing, too. But somewhere among the joking and joshing are lessons on why we hunt, what dogs do to us - and for us - and even a tip or two.
