Nice video’s! How old are Sage and Nyla?

Welcome and enjoy MN hunting. From the sounds of it, it’s a good place to hunt this year.

Russell’s are comfortable but I find them to be heavy and the stitching in the toe area wears from heavy use. I haven’t found a good workaround for that. I do put super glue or gorilla glue on the stitches in the toe to slow the wear but that’s a temporary fix.

I used to fly fish year round. Now I don’t fly fish during dove and upland seasons…

I figured it out! Had to use AI! Yes, you can use the training buttons on a Garmin Alpha 100 with the screen locked, but only if you change the settings from "With Screen Lock" to "Manual". To do this, go to the main menu, select "Setup," then "Training," and finally "Button Lock," where you...

I gave it a try. Mine is telling me that my screen is locked and the training keys are locked. I can’t get the tone button to work when it’s locked. I’m guessing that that is a training key? iDK.

Thanks for the feedback. I’ll take another look at locking the hand held unit.

Zeb I’ve tried locking the screen and that works as far as the screen goes. The subsequent problem is that the tone and vibrate buttons seem to be disabled and won’t work. Maybe there’s a workaround to that that I’m not aware of?

I have the alpha 100 and do not like the screen on the hand held unit. Changes settings with the slightest bump. Also way too many functions for an upland hunt or to use as a training collar IMO.

Interestingly the last series of the HRC Grand is an upland series and the dog has to flush the bird, and then be steady to wing and shot.

I’m familiar with some of the TGK dogs. Rooster is a very accomplished dog.

So is Rooster Smasher from TGK?

Sir Hershey is one of the original pointing labs in the Colorado region.

Anyone hunt with PL’s that point most/all wild birds? I’ve owned labs out of Pointing Lines for the last 20+ years-6 to be exact. 3 of the 6 point or pointed. P2 of the 6 have the exact same genetics and one points and the other doesn’t. None point most or every wild bird. If the wild bird...

I think Field Trials would be the most difficult to place in, as I believe the judges actually pick the “best” dog, HRC Grand, in my opinion, is the second most difficult as it’s a 5 day test and the scores carry forward. 2 mediocre days and you are done. AKC master national and AOLA triple...
