was hunting with a friend from ND on saturday morn on a lake surounded by cattails. we flushed one on the south side, we each unloaded our guns on the bird and watched it fly a few hundred yards across the lake. As i watched the bird fly i noticed that he started getting higher and higher into...

:mad::mad: Over the past 3 hunting seasons my dog has been to the vet 3x for barbed wire incidents. Im afraid he will lose an eye next time. What can i do if anything:confused: to keep him fence aware?

I bought my first brand new in the box shotgun today. 80% of my hunting consists of chasing pheasants and i spend an average of 50 days in the field per year. I went into it wanting a semi auto 12 that was light enough to carry all day. I ended up choosing a winchester super x3 field 20 ga...

My 2 year old lab has a scab type patch on his hind end next to his tail. does anybody have any suggestions as to ointments or anything else? I wish i could just take him to the vet but at this time its not possible? It seems to be some type of skin irritation. thank you for your help

Allright i dont know about you guys but i havent seen a brood of chicks yet. im in the mcloed county area and starting to get a bit concerned that the rains we had were untimely. Have any of you guys seen any?

Interested in how many bird hunters like to smoke and grill meat? Im guessing most, cause smoked pheasant is one of the best ways to eat them, and most hunters also enjoy cooking.

I'm living in the meeker county area and im not seeing a whole lot of birds. Friends of mine driving west of here for work say that they are seeing a few more than this time last year. What are you guys seeing and thinking? It was a great winter for them, praying for a dry nesting season.

Hi guys, was wondering if anyone has had experience or advice for a dog that is terrible to go on car rides with. I've had him for 2 yrs and he goes with me everywhere its not as if hes never goes on rides he always does. He is trained, well excercised and is a good dog except for the car rides...

I walked all day attetntive and ready for my opportunity, after a few miles of walking cattails I turned and said to my buddy, "I just wish there was some snow, then I know they'd be in the cattails." Before I finished my sentence the biggest rooster in mcloed county erupted from the cattails 10...
