Mannie at 5 1/2 years old.

My 5 1/2 year old Lab Mannie.

That's a good idea. May go ahead and purchase my license now to make sure that doesn't happen. We have already booked our place to stay. I am sure hoping that this will not be an issue but who knows.

I live just north of Destin in the Panhandle of Florida.

My pup is well aware of what an E-collar is. I call it her ears. It's amazing how smart she gets when I put it on. 😅

Definitely inexperienced at hunting Pheasant. I hunt a lot of ducks and dove in my area but we have zero experience with Pheasant. I usually shoot #2 and #3 steel for ducks and #7.5's for dove so I have plenty of that laying around. It is has been a dream of mine since I was a kid to walk...

Thanks! I've been looking at the Federal (Pheasants Forever) Wing Shok 1 1/4 oz. # 5 and the Winchester Super X - Super Pheasant 1 3/8 oz. # 5's

Since you brought up steel shot, what size steel shot would you recommend? I have a full case of 3 inch #3's and some #2's that I use for waterfowl. I was already thinking about taking some steel just in case I decide to try a WA.

I'll be sure to post about it when we get home. If you think about it, message me before you leave and I'll let you know what I found.

Thank you! I am really on the fence between 5's and 6's. Do you guys think the 5's are "too much" for quail?

Definitely a flushing dog :LOL:. This will be her first time and I'm sure I'm going to struggle keeping her close.

We will be leaving Dec. 26th and hunting Dec. 28 - 30.

If I was going to buy one size shot for Pheasants and Quail, what would it be? Is there such a thing? I will be using a 12 gauge over/under and would prefer to shoot 2 3/4 inch shells. I don't want to be under gunned for pheasant but I also don't want to destroy a quail if the chance presents...

Thank you! I will definitely make sure that I pack that with us. We made out reservations for a place to stay in Kansas yesterday. We will be staying in the Salina area. Now I have to control my excitement for the next 6 months. Thanks again of all of the help and information.
