Just FYI...if my notes are correct, this field is located at 379 Ave & 193 ST about 12 miles west southwest of Hitchcock.

Thanks for the info. Prior to the separate November and December draw, you were only allowed to select one date listed on a "draw down menu" which included dates for both November and December. Going forward, I will enter in the November and the December draw.

Unsuccessful for a December draw. Can you entry for the November and December draw? Or, can you only entry for one or the other?

While in SD, I ran across a WIA Pheasants Forever PATH field that was covered with this grass. I assumed it was Canadian Rye but was not for certain. I did not hunt due to not being able to truly identify this type of grass. I would like to hear your thoughts on the type of grass. If this...

I use Mane ‘n Tail Detangler on my Brittany. It makes the burrs and the “stick tights” easier to remove with a brush. It is not a fail safe solution. But it does assist in remove the items tangled in the fur.

I tried three different "skid-plates" (Cabela's, Cuga and Sylmar) and they all chaffed my dog's armpits and the inside of their forearms. The solution that works for my dogs is wearing a toddler long-sleeve t-shirts under the “skid-plate” as Wind River recommended. I buy 7 to 10 t-shirts per...

What hotels do you recommend in Huron, SD? I have been traveling to Huron for 20 years and stayed at Dakota Inn for the first 10 years and stayed at the Best Western for the past 10 years. After the Best Western changed ownership a few years ago, the management has been less responsive in...

I upgraded to an Alpha 200i last year from a Tri-Tronics 200 lite and an Astro 220. Most of the time, I used the Alpha 200i and my old Astro 220 for distance and direction of my dogs and my truck. When I hunt new fields, I do utilize the map feature to understand my location related to the...

Good luck on your decision. Follow-up to my earlier post. This is my EB retrieving a couple pheasants after working heavy cattails. These cattail areas had deer paths already cut into the cattails. He would follow these paths until he found scent. Then, he would work his way through the...

I am not an expert. Like all breeds, there are some genetic issues with all breeds. From the CEB-US website, “Hip dysplasia and the Ay (sable coat) gene are two hot button issues concerning the Epagneul Breton in the US, but they are certainly not the only concerns facing ethical breeders.” I...

I have owned 5 American Brittany since 1991 and picked up my first French Brittany in 2018. Both breeds have similar traits regarding training, handling in the field and around the house. All my brittany were full of energy in the house until they were close to 4 years old. If you worked their...

Today, my wife and I said goodbye to our Gus at only 12 years old. Cognitive issues were getting worse, and we did not want to see him suffer anymore. Yesterday, we were able to celebrate his birthday and his life before heading to the rainbow bridge. Everyone who has been lucky enough to have a...

Also research Epagneul Breton (French Brittany). I owned American Brittany's for 30 years and loved their personality in the home and their energy in the field. Unfortunately, the breeder I have adopted all my American Brittany's passed away and I had to look for a new breeder. About 3 years...

Not successful. Have not been drawn since the postcard days. :(Try again next year.

Thanks AggieHB for your comments and suggestions. I appreciate your input. I will keep them in mind during my decision making process. Have a great day.
