Indiana in March is always crazy but dammm. It was 73 when I went to bed. We had the door open listening to the storm coming in. Woke up to 32 and spitting snow 20 mph winds. I'm staying in today.

I am considering a new or used 20 sxs, probably this spring. Probably needs to be under 3k to keep things tolerable with the wife. Here's my criteria. under 6 lbs. 26'' to 24'' tubes would like choke tubes but not a deal breaker That doesn't sound too hard to find but haven't seen to many yet...

How much snow you all got? I'm in southern Indiana, about an hour north of KY. Looks like around a foot now. Not quitting until around 2 this afternoon. Not going to get above freezing for a couple weeks. That's not going to help the few wild quail we have left!!

Well, as bad as I hate think about it, my old dog will be 9 this coming year. Sadly, she will be the last dog I will be training on mainly wild quail. So, as I'm contemplating a pup in a few years, the thought a cured to me that I really no longer need a dog that covers a bunch of ground. With...

Wow, 69 degrees today here. 19 degrees tonight with 25-30 mph winds. Tomorrow looks like a good day to clean some guns by the fire!

I've hunted around Hays without dog boots. But down around Kinsley I did need dog boots. So, is there a kind of cutoff area or will I need boots in between?

Looks like Iowa is out for me do to the snow, so heading to K.S. Looking to go somewhere different. Not hot spotting, just looking for your assessments of different regions. I'm thinking south central.

I as well as you guys have a lot to be thankful for. Happy Thanksgiving to all!!

What's everyone take out of state for a backup? In the past I've taken one of my o/u's but I get more and more uncomfortable leaving it in the truck or motel room. I'm considering buying something like a reasonably priced 12-gauge pump. Something I wouldn't cry about losing, but also wouldn't...

My 8-year-old wire has been limping after hunting on a front foot/leg for a couple years. Neither me nor the Vet has any Idea. This year it's worse, sometimes not being able to put it down after a few hours of hunting. A half of a 100 mlg. Carprofen helps a lot. If I'm hunting every day, I'll...

Here we go again. My old Thinsulate leather driving gloves are shot. No longer made. Bought a new pair last year, didn't last a month. I need a good pair that are tough enough to withstand briars. Also need to be thin enough to use on double triggers. Opinions appreciated.

So, south central bird #s come up any? Was there a couple years ago. Quail #s were ok, Phez was pretty dismal. I'm trying to formulate a plan.

I've been trying to get in shape for a while. Working out, walking. Lost some weight and feeling pretty good. My problem is, no matter what boots I wear, my feet hurt after about 5 miles. What's the best insoles? I remember reading a thread about it but can't find it.

I know I said I was done with the Turkish guns but has anyone bought the Charles Daly 520? Looks pretty good single trigger, Advertised weight 5.5 in the 20.

For some of you reloading experts. I have a 1965 56e Beretta 20-gauge with 2 3/4 chambers. I had choke tubes put in it and have some turkey chokes ordered. As I'm trying to figure out what loads I'm going to shoot a thought accrued to me. Since a 2 3/4-inch shell is only 2 3/4 after it's fired...

Thinking about a late season trip. Anyone have a report from Marion/Logan counties? I know the pheasant numbers are down but quail numbers worth the trip?

Have heard guys say they only put boots on their dog's front feet. Anyone have an opinion? I'm not sure it's worth the risk.

For the last couple days, all three dogs have been obsessed with a half drum of scrap steel out back in a lean to. I told them to cut the crap as I am not emptying out all that steel just so they can smell a mouse nest. Then, on a 93-degree afternoon I see two dogs digging the gravel from around...

If any of you guys are thinking about buying some ground, you might want to do it now. We were looking for 40-80 acers a few years ago but prices got out of hand before we got it done. It seemed like it took a few years or so before the prices raised out west so just to let you know, the prices...

I'm tech. challenged, so forgive me.. I'm trying. I finally got it figured out on my phone and it works great. I would like something with a bigger screen. Loaded it on my wife's Kendal but couldn't get it to work outside the hose. Is that because the kindal doesn't work on a satellite signal...
