    Hen to rooster ratios?

    Hunted with my son and 2 of my weims tonight. First 10 birds were hens. Wondering if I jinxed us. Finally shot a rooster took the dogs a while to retrieve it. They worked the blind retrieve for a couple minutes made a recovery 70 yards away. Then 5 minutes later another rooster shot. Looking for...

    Hen to rooster ratios?

    It just occurred to me that I see way more roosters then hens most days that I hunt. There are days where the hens are 20× the number but that isn't often. It does happen on public ground more then private.

    How many birds do you shoot in a season?

    15-10 =5 so I can go hunt 3 days or more if I give more birds away.

    How many birds do you shoot in a season?

    I have a number of friends and family happy to have birds. I take 5 to 10 different people out over the season and most are happy to take birds. College students love free meat.😉 I cook up about 10 birds at a time for our weekly pf banquet committee meetings. Pheasant and dumplings. Pheasant...

    How many birds do you shoot in a season?

    I have been out 4× less then 3 hours total time. By myself twice and twice with another dog guy. 15 birds total. I am not a fan of hunting above 45°. From Dec. 1 till Jan. 31 i will probably shoot 150 birds. That is about my normal take during the end of the S.Dak. season.

    Strange things dogs do.

    Got my very first Weim well I was in college. I worked evenings and my roommate was always at home watching TV if he wasn't studying. One night that I had off we are watching a movie (from Block Buster😁) and the dog gets up and walks to the hall way and just stares at us. Roommate says dammit...

    Strange things dogs do.

    More then once I have watched Willie side stepping hackles raised growling at something. Once a mailbox , once a old flannel shirt on a corner post , and oddly enough a dead tree he had seen 50× before in a creek bottom. Other times equally as funny.

    Hunted some really thick CREP.

    This is the 3rd year for this planting and it got timely rains. 60 yards apart and I couldn't see my hunting partner. The 3 weims were impossible to keep track of. Lost 1 dog for 10 minutes and again later for 45 minutes. Thing is we only hunted a hour. We did scratch out 5 nice roosters. At...

    Best all around e-collar for training and hunting

    The Alpha has many bells and whistles it is just figuring them out and then remembering that is harder then it should be. That is the main complaint about the alpha. The small screen is the 2nd most common complaint.

    I am quite sure the buttons still work but you can't switch dogs without unlocking the screen first. Some say you can program the buttons to correspond to different dogs. All in all the alpha is really difficult to use.
