That one got me. Not been too long since my 14 yr old setter got his last season in. One of his last trips was to NE. A hunting buddy and I spread some of his ashes in ND. It will be tough I assure you.

Awesome trip man!

That stuff is scary. I don't care where you grew up there's no driving in that.

What will the impact on next years birds be from this? I assume that even thick sloughs can't protect them from freezing rain / ice.

Good Day!! , Good looking dogs Gents. Hunted a little further north of there about a month ago. There were a few covies around.

AHHH , yea those things. Have seen them for years. I had assumed that they were one of the native prairie grasses . Those are excellent to lose downed quail in. Thanks for the tutorial guys!

The one time I hunted KS with a decent snow on was great. Would you describe what phragmites are?

Solid season sir. Stats are impressive.

May try to squeeze one more in. Otherwise it will be chasing the elusive Appalachian Grouse and possibly the southern bob. Been to the great northern plaines and the prairie this year. Moved bobs , huns , sharpies , and roosters. My 10 month old gsp has gotten some good reps and travel...

How awesome would an old Holland Pointer & Setter Club sign or hat be?

You handled it the right way. Ive never ran into this exact situation. I have had deer hunters stop and ask if we cared if they sat on the opposite side of the section in case we pushed something out. It wasn't my favorite idea but they were cool about it. This guy you delt with didn't give a F.

Soil calcium is a limiting factor. It puts a limit on the hardness and thickness of the egg shell. Not the only thing but I remember a layover map we looked at in college. The soils that had the right amount of calcium was very similar to the pheasant range map.

Made a trip to the northeast quarter of Kansas last week. My hunting buddy and myself , my 10 moth old gsp and his 1.5 year old gsp decided to try something new. It was different than our usual north central area that we hunt. More corn and beans than milo. Hunted 3.5 days. We were focusing on...

Killed my first partridge near buffalo. Went maybe two miles from there and got into sharpies.

Great point. There would be little to no timber left in this country if it weren't for the State Forest Departments , US Forest Service and National Park Service. Wetlands would be fewer if not for the USFWS. All hunter and tax payer funded for sure. Im one of the people who would pay the...
