Made a trip up to Montana last week for some bird hunting, it was a good trip. :) We hit BMAs and some private land around Miles City, Wolf Point, Ft Benton and Lewistown. Ended up with quite a few birds - Pheasants, Huns and Sharptail Grouse. Took our Weim, Blitz along for the trip, after...

Just checking in. The wet weather has potential to produce good cover. Fingers are crossed that we don't get any really bad weather in phez country. We have our 3 1/2 year old dog down at Hideaway Kennels getting "re-educated" :laugh: ... he is all "go" and no "whoa" ... has been that day...

I have never seen nor interacted with a DoW or Dept of Parks and Wildlife officer while hunting in the last 5 years. Today, I was at a hunting preserve and a DoW truck drives onto the property an officer gets out and asks to see my hunting license. Has anyone else had a similar experience? I...

Have any of you been down to Blue Cliff Pheasants this year? I am curious about how the cover is looking. We went there last year, and had a good time. The cover was a bit sparse in areas other than the stubble ... and even in the stubble, it was really dusty. Thinking about heading down...

Are pheasants more skittish on windy days? So far this season, I have been out on two windy days, and both days the birds were flushing well out of range. By windy, I mean corn husks blowing in the wind and tumbleweed rolling across the top of CRP fields. Both windy days resulted in no shots...

Mrs. COWeimar and I headed to northeast Colorado on Saturday. Being the smart one, she opted out of going last weekend (cold, windy). We took along two or our three boys. Dakota is our pro, and he put up a nice rooster for me in the morning. Cowboy is our youngster, he did a fine job...

Since it was opening weekend in Colorado, my wife and I headed up to Nebraska! :laugh: We headed up and over the border on Friday night. On Saturday morning, we spent a lot of time in one area that was mostly grass, incredible cover and scenery, but didn't find any birds. Headed east in the...

Headed up to Montana last week with my buddy and my two Weims - Cowboy and Blitz. Blitz is 3 years old and is becoming a seasoned veteran. Cowboy is a rookie at 1 1/2 years old. We hunted in and around Great Falls for a few days and then headed down to Lewistown. We came away with 10 roosters...

Heading to Montana for a week starting October 15th. Has anyone here ever hunted in or around Shelby, Montana? We are going to spend a few days in Great Falls area, and head down to Lewiston as well.

Grouse virgins no more! :thumbsup: Cowboy, our 1 1/2 year old Weim, found us a grouse today. This was his first time out on a wild bird hunt, and my first time bagging a grouse. It was a good day. :cheers:

Anyone have any experience with a Browning A-5 and pheasant loads? My dad passed away last year and I inherited all of his shotguns, rifles and pistols. His most coveted shotgun was "the Browning" - a Belgian made A-5. It hasn't been fired in over 20 years. I am planning to take it to Chuck at...

So much for birds around Goodland and Kanorado ... 06/14/2014 0659 PM 6 miles NE of Kanorado, Sherman County. Hail m2.75 inch, reported by trained spotter. Hail size ranged from Golf Ball to baseball size. 06/14/2014 0721 PM Goodland, Sherman County. Hail e2.75 inch, reported by...

Would any of you know about a hunting preserve east of Brighton off of 144th between Penrith and Converse? I have seen signs with "Wildlife Release Area" and over the past couple of weeks I have seen bird dogs and folks wearing blaze orange. Any ideas if it might be one of the properties used...

What are you guys doing with the next 9 months? :D Training today. Fun hunt at Valhalla on Sunday. We are getting ready for AKC hunt tests in April. The Mile High Weimaraner Club and Vizsla Club of Colorado are hosting a "double double" AKC hunt tests on April 5th and 6th at Strasburg Game...

I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed ... if you are familiar with the regs for dog training at Banner Lakes SWA can you help me out? :cheers:
