    Lab guys sorry but....

    I agree. Grew up around labs and never hunted over anything but labs until I was 30. Don't know what I was thinking! Great waterfowl dogs but for upland - no way. I have to see that beautiful point. About 15 yrs ago one of the hunting guys got a "pointing lab" but it just wasn't the same.

    Lets See Your Dogs..post some pic's

    Walking dog behind my house 2 days ago and run into this. I think beavers must be tough SOBs because that thing did not care at all that were were 8 feet away. I knew there were some around by the tree damage and had seen one swimming in the creek but they have always been pretty shy. This is...

    The most Beautiful Bird Hunting Boot ever

    I have the same boot but not in the bison leather. I think I have to be close to 15 years on them. Resoled and very minimal wear. I would have gone through at least 2 or 3 pairs of store bought boots In that period of time and spent at least as much as I have in mine. Around $500 when I got hem...

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

    I'm on bird dog number 4 over a 30 year period. my fist was a Weim pup I got the week my 2nd child was born. They grew up together. Terrific dog, big, smart, and would retrieve as well as any lab anywhere. She and I figured how to hunt with a pointing dog together. Had two litters o pups out of...

    Lets See Your Dogs..post some pic's

    My newly adopted Brittany. was never a house dog, spent his life at a kennel/trainer in KS and then mostly in a raised cage at his previous owners house. He hunts like a champ, well adjusted around people, and think he now owns the house. He doesn't seem to want to recognize that I have rules...

    Pheasant hunting north west Wisconsin

    I've got a methhead/UFK type fighter guy down the road. Shot a 14pt buck on my land from his truck. Someone saw him. CO did a little investigation and the dummass ejected his spent casing right where the witness told him the shot was fired from. He went to investigate (the place is a dump as...

    Pheasant hunting north west Wisconsin

    It's a tremendous hunting property which I think entices hunters/neighbors to sneak around. The neighbors are actually the worst. Not only do they trespass/poach they also dump their refuse, dead animals and what not on my land. Also showed up one time in early fall and notice a atv racetrack...

    Pheasant hunting north west Wisconsin

    One of my WI properties abuts Theresa Marsh. The state has planted birds there for decades. I know I have killed quite a few hat were planted and pushed onto my property along with innumerable trespassers who couldn't see the multitude of signs that say "PRIVATE PROPERTY". Nearly every time I go...

    Gear That Lasted At Least A Decade?

    The cat predators would be replaced by other predators that are natural to the environment. You would simply see more foxes, coyotes, and raptors and whatever else eats those same things as cats. But none of them kill for fun. like cats do. I'm all for more foxes, raptors and coyotes. They eat...

    Let's Bitch (Can't Hunt)

    He's actually pretty good hunter, not a great shot but he doesn't take bad shots. For deer he's looking for a once in a lifetime deer or some poor old buck that is well past it's prime. He finally got the latter last season. Had to be 7-8 years old. My older brother is the worst. Lives in NYC...

    34 years is chump time! (I'm in my 34th year, not because I have to, but because I want to, for now.) ☺️ I retired for a couple years but was bored out of my mind. Wasn't prepared. I'm getting closer mentally but sitting around at 57 yrs old wasn't for me.

    Here's what I got my dad for Christmas

    My dad picked these up in Japan while on leave from Korean war in the early 50s. Hand painted/fired tiles. My brother ended up with them after he died. I think they are very cool.

    The vast majority of that was due to 7 stocks. Be careful.
