He’s certainly full of something…

So I am about 99% sure it used to be the first weekend in November. Kansas was always second weekend and in the northwest part of Kansas you couldn’t find a last second room that weekend. We stayed in Alma Nebraska more than once that second weekend after the opening crew had left.

I drove down 281 in SD north to south from ND line. I started counting corn fields to stay awake. I stopped at around 130 just north of Huron when it got dark. At that point I did my sixth grade math on it and came up with about 35% harvested. That was last Thursday. All beans were gone.

I am with you, I don’t think trying to hit a Gatorade bottle a couple times in the middle of the night would work for me. I did a fair amount of tent hunting when I was young and am hardly Gucci now. Relatively clean, hot shower and cable TV is about my only requirement

Wow that’s pretty graphic…. Sounds like someone possibly has some unresolved trauma with his Catholic upbringing…. I can certainly relate

It is certainly thinning out. I was at the motel in Mitchell this week and there were a lot of hunters. Most were my age or older not many younger. Even my own sons prioritize nearly everything over a hunting trip. At least it looks like you and the dog had a good time

So I don’t think you were on here then but there used to be a guy on here by the name of Uncle Buck that swore by the Pudelpointer breed. He used to get in it with guys on here, usually Lab guys about how superior his dogs were. I was still in my flushing lab obsession and found it hard to...

Thanks Aaron I hope you and your family are well

Believe me it crossed my mind

Definitely a first for me

One of my worst hunting experiences was the day I overworked my 12 year old lab. He was having a day and went pretty hard like he was a youngster. He seemed to be having a blast doing it, I certainly was watching it. What I got that evening was something I never want to experience again. After...

I don’t think that was the case. I think that they were road hunting late in the day and got a little lazy. They were pretty young and didn’t have a tremendous amount of experience. I doubt it happens again.

Witnessed a comical incident at the motel last evening in Mitchell South Dakota. I was driving down from North Dakota and stopped there for the evening about 8 or so. I had Raven up on the tailgate to brush her out and feed her and noticed a young group of hunters that were unloading their truck...

Ever hunted pheasants in a mosquito swarm? Holy West Nile Batman they were thick in my eyes, nose, mouth and covering my arms and hands. It was ridiculous but luckily after the first day it got cooler and the wind picked up. Here are a few highlights of a week in North Dakota. My original plan...

100 percent that is a good way to make it worse. Personally I would kennel the dog while working and praising another dog. Once you get him good and pissed off he can come out and try some for himself. Goose I am certain you can find a low brow, ass grabbing Gucci guy at one of your pheasant...
