    New Year Quail - Average Weather Conditions

    Try Winchester XX heavy loads. Expensive but worth it. 1 oz. of 7.5's is what I shot for quail.

    Short coated setters are on my radar. I don't mind doing some de burring, but all the Gordons I've seen are way to wooly for the burs here.

    The above-mentioned guy who had a big time in the snow last year, called my hunting buddy last night while I was at his place developing an attack plan for next week. He was on his way out when he got side swiped in St louis! Totaled his truck but him and his dogs are ok! Cops caught the guy...

    Nice looking dog. By the looks of that eye, he earned that bird!

    The part you are talking about is about as good as any in central Kansas. If your hell bent on hunting WIHA's find a Walmart and hope they have some WIHA maps left. Remember that when you pick the area with the most WIHA a thousand other guys have done the same. Hunting all WHIHA can work fine...

    Best day ever!

    An experienced desert runner once told me to head for the truck when it hits 60.

    Driving home….

    I'm not much of a touchy-feely guy, but for some unknown reason that picture makes me sad.

    You will probably do a lot of walking and not much shooting. Treat it like an exploring/hiking vacation and try to find a plat book. I'll be there next week doing just that. My expectations are low, but I need a new area. It usually takes us about 3 or 4 years before we've knocked on enough...

    Ha, you would catch that! :ROFLMAO: Truth is, last spring when I was turkey hunting every morning, the dogs thought we permanently changed our hours! Now at 4:00 sharp it's game on; Pepper parades around the bed with her blankey, Sally is standing in the hall panting and Maybel is waiting on one...

    20 guage auto?

    I know that sound and cringe feeling when you pull one from the back of the safe, clinkaty clink. I've always wondered what the difference is between the weight of composite and walnut?

    First pheasant with my RRL 28 gauge…

    Goose and I would like to apply for a hunting trip with you. We could sit on the bench and drink P.B.R. I'll have to get me a 50's A5 or he may not let me sit by him.

    I''ll keep that in mind. The timing would be about right...

    New a5 20 guage

    The problem was that the washer on the gas port was made from some kind of material that didn't react good to solvent. After repeated use of the solvent the washer would turn into a sticky gooey mess. They came up with a different material, but it was too late, damaged reputation done. They were...
