jonnyB (Jon Bastable) and I, Dakotazeb (George Eberle), are organizing a Geezer Hunt the first week in December. Haymaker (Dennis Hoyle) has offered to let us stay and hunt at his place near Roscoe, SD. In order to qualfy for the Geezer Hunt you need to be at least 70 years old. We are...

Sorry but the Ultra Light and the Silver Featherweight are only 2+1 according to Benelli's web site

The regular Monte, the Sporting and the Silver are all 4+1, the Monte Ultra Light and Silver Featherweight are both 2+1.

Browning White Lightning 16 here also. The Browning is built on a modified 20 ga. frame. I wouldn't even consider any 16 ga. built on a 12 ga. frame.

Yup, as we get older and retired I tend to only hunt on nice, dry days also. No need to go out in crappy weather. I do get out some days in a little snow but that's about it.

I've never felt the need for boots in SD but there probably are some areas where sand burrs might be an issue. The only time I ran into a big sand burr problem was in Kansas. But I always carry a set of the Sylmar booties with in my vehicle when hunting. Also works good if your dog would cut...

I've used these Sylmar dog boots from Gun Dog Supply. Easy on and easy off. You can put some duck tape around the top to help them stay of but I really haven't needed to. If you do lose one they are quite inexpensive to buy two sets so you have some spares. Lewis are good just a little more...

You can't make a mistake with either one. Get one you like the looks of best and the one that shoulders best for you. Good luck with your choice and enjoy.

I fed my previous Brittany almost exclusively Nutrisource and she did verry well on it. Started my current Britt on Nutrisource but she had a gassy stomack from it so I went back to PPP. All the extra fat and calories are fine if your dog is getting enough exercise but can lead to weight gain...

I believe he said those were Gerber Game Shears. I've been using the Gerbers for years, they are great and very reasonably priced...

Check with FCSpringer on this site. I did check his website and doesn't have any started dogs at this time. But he might know of one. If you want I can text you his number.

I think walking in wet grass for an extended time is the worst. I've never seen any boot (other than rubber boots) that would stay dry inside under those conditions. I doubt it's wicking in from the top.

Really? Not from what I've seen in the past 14 years.

I thought about that. Need to get in touch with Dennis.

Just saw this post. Real sorry to hear about Kismet. He'll be missed.

8 months until I turn 80. Feel blessed to be in as good of health as I am in spite of T-Cell Lymphoma, Afib, Type 2 Diabetes, high bood pressure and colesterol. Other than that I'm great! :)

She (9 year old spayed female) gets abot 1 3/4 - 2 cups once a day. She maintains her weight at 34-35 lbs.

I'm feeding my 9 year old Brittany PPP Adult +7 Chicken and Rice. Just bought a 34# bag and it was $77.48. But that bag lasts me about 3 months. So about $25/month or less than a buck a day. My dog is sure worth that.

You have opened a potential can of worms. This subject gets beat to death and everyone has their own ideas, feelings and experiences. Basically it boils down to which food your dog likes and does best on. I've had Brittanys for 30 years and have fed numerous different foods. I always seem to...
