Utah -(Ammoland.com)-  Falling snow is good news for chukar hunters.

Once snow starts to fall, chukars — which roam over a larger area during the warmer months — concentrate in smaller areas. That makes it easier to find the birds.

Chukar hunting is a fun thing to do with trained hunting dogs in the winter.

A friend of mine is a new mom.  She and her beautiful baby live in Los Angeles.  I owe them a visit.  At least I owe her coffee and conversation the next time I’m nearby and we have 15 minutes to kill.  Then again, 15 minutes can be a very long time for a new mom.  Now that I think of it, even 5 minutes is forever if you need help.  As I mentioned, my friend lives in Los Angeles where she is not allowed to carry a firearm in public.  She called and asked if she should carry a gun for protection.  She isn’t alone.  Many gun owners are asking the same question after the recent attacks in southern California.
