I don't even get on here that often and I know goose lets his dogs ride in the cab. I'm sure he will remind us again next season.

Maybe that's why he didn't reply to me when I asked if his "great hatch" pictures were all wild hatched birds. I'm almost sure it was him.

Make sure you do the Lewis boots where it is really dry and get good tape contact. Expensive when they throw a boot.

The only time I ever hunted around much cactus, I didn't really have a problem with feet. I had more of a problem with spines getting into the front of their legs. There were so many that I gave up pulling them out and the dogs either got them or they worked themselves out on their own.

I tried some homemade inner tube ones last year. Worked fine on sand buds. Not sure how canvas would do on long spines like that. I think the Lewis would repel them. There are videos out there on putting them on correctly.

How many times will "pockets" be mentioned?

Mine do well on next level. I’ve fed pro plan and used to feed victor. Using Next Level high energy now. Will up the protein and fat maybe during bird season.

Does it really make sense that they have enough true wild birds to run guys like that over and over all season? That area has never recovered to what it was in the 2000s. Not even close. I'd bet they're released young or something like that to make them more wild. I know someone that hunts...

Finally saw the sun in NE Ok this evening. My garden was happy.

I had good luck using a half hitch around the belly with a check cord. They'll collapse the first several times but they'll pick up on it. My experience anyway.

I'm 46. I have two dogs. That's plenty for me and always will be.

West, do you measure out that fish oil exact every meal or eyeball it after a bit? I’m gonna cut down to 26/18 and try the oil. My two shorthairs stay really lean.

I have a single stage MEC and the AA's aren't much more than the cheaper loads so I get them for reloading as well.

Holy cow! That is quite a batch of puppies. They look great!
