    Goose

    Us few Pudelpointer owners don’t want him. I think it’s more than likely that the Bot portal was closed.

    Why did you go with the breed that you did and have you been satisfied?

    Man seeing that black Lab makes me sad I had 3 over the years but the last one was the best. He wasn’t going to win any field trials but in the cattails finding birds I would have put him up against any. He flat out understood those fuckers and the tricks they play. Because of the primary game...

    Dog Dies While At Trainer

    I live an hour or so away from Perfection kennel and took my dog to them a couple summers ago. I did have some communication issues with the young trainer at first which were rectified by the owner. He has a good operation there and his videos are great and easy to follow. I never felt my dog...

    Broken femur?

    Not a hunting dog but…. About 15 years ago my son left the gate open and our border collie got ran over by a pickup truck. I was able to get her out from under it and realized her front right leg was snapped with the bone protruding out. Rushed her to the vet and they preformed emergency...

    2023 Season Pictures of Birds, Guns And Dogs

    Man that bird on the left has a tail on it. Nice job on the photo staging. It looks like a good one

    Take-aways from this season

    It depends. In cold weather I take wrist bands and tuck a couple in there with light gloves. In theory it warms the blood which warms the hands. May only be in my head. I am not a fan of heavy gloves or coats for that matter

    Great shots

    Funny you should bring up an 1100 and embarrassing shots….. I was hunting with a buddy in Iowa in probably 90 or 91. We were walking on either side of a dirty fence line in a very strong wind, both carrying old 1100’s when a big old rooster popped up at about thirty yards. He screamed away then...

    2023 Iowa bird hunt pics and/or stories

    If you would have had a vest full you probably wouldn’t have had an opportunity to shoot your way out of the slump. Knowing you were short probably helped you out. Weird how that happens. Sounds like a good ending

    Look I really need help on this one

    So I have had a myriad of experiences pheasant hunting in about every conceivable condition. Hunting in northern Missouri in a sudden hail storm and taking refuge in a hedge row with lightning strikes all around. 😮. A blizzard in SD so bad I didn’t know where the road was. Stuck my truck so bad...

    Flint Hills report anyone?

    I started hunting upland in 76 with my dad. We would come down and hunt prairie chickens in Westphalia area, then further south for quail. It was not hard to put up multiple coveys in a day and rarely came back without a limit. Then all the birds were gone….

    North Kansas

    Yes they look very similar for sure. Let me know the next time you’re in Kansas and maybe we could hook up. I would love to see another one. I have run into 3-4 but not too many.

    Flint Hills report anyone?

    Wow that is disappointing. Had many a good day there years ago

    North Kansas

    Yes she is a Pudelpointer just turned two. I decided that I would return to a pointer after thirty years of Labs. She is probably smarter than I am and seems to pick things up quickly. She was blowing through about half of her points back in early November, now she is sticking them for the most...
