    looking for advice: training a lab pointer

    Long story short, start by introducing loud noises, while playing fetch, slowly progressing louder. She needs to associate it with something good. Then lots of birds. You already have a head start because you will work obedience in with it. Don't worry about the bonding. She's probably already...

    Yeah, I think it was south of Pratt where I had a couple encounters.

    Dog boots

    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?

    Nice, I have a F.A.I.R. Rizzini. I think Rizzini makes them.

    Snacks, Meals?

    Gas station pizza, snickers and jerky. Most of the dives I stay in don't allow cooking in the rooms. But this year, I'm staying in a farmhouse so hopefully, steak and pheasants.

    Here's what I might shoot for now

    I did accomplish huns, pheasants and sharpies once in N.D. Bird #s wasn't that great but man I loved the vastness and solitude of it. Nearest neighbor was 7 miles. At night his was the only light we could see.

    Snowfall - It could get pretty tough out there

    Huh, we got 4'' last night/this morning. Our weather normally follows yours only 10 + degrees warmer by the time it gets here.

    A sign of getting old.

    I know, I used to have to get in there and play with it a little just so it would clear my zipper. Now I don't have time for that. If I can't get it out pretty quick, there's going to be an accident!!

    It was once pretty easy to knock down the triple crown in K.S. Not so much anymore. But I bet there are places where you could.

    Fiberoptic sight

    I like them. Not enough to replace all my other sights with them. I think maybe they show up in my peripheral vision. I've found out I can get a similar effect with some 100 grit on aluminum or brass.
