    How many of you let birds go?

    When I shoot and the bird keeps flying, I mark up to "a dead bird" kept flying. This way a don't miss. Does that count as "letting the bird go?"

    Your "Go-To" gun and why?

    I use the 1970's Ithaca auto loader 300XL model. Never had one problem in any weather or shooting low or hi base. The only thing is that it doesn't not have the screw-in chocks like the newer models. Hunt Grouse, Pheasant and Quail. It has two barrels IC and Modified.

    Released birds - the numbers

    Bob, You would surprised/shocked how many released pheasants you have shot thinking they were wild birds on public lands/ditches. Maybe you wouldn't be so boisterous about the dreaded 'nare flares.' Don't let your ego override reality.

    New from OK

    Sounds good, let me know. Went out this a.m. quail hunting around Okeene and GunnR pointed a covey and of course, as usual, I missed. I usually hunt in the morning, so if you can make out to Drummond whatever time is best for you I'll meet ya.

    New from OK

    My only time hunting out west is when I drove to Woodward to hunt Cooper WMA. Spoke by phone to the Sr. Game Biologist for Cooper he told me that the Quail population this season was the best for many yrs. Upon that advice I made the 72 mile trek. Well, I must of hunted the wrong area because I...

    My woodcock story....

    Wow, the best hunting story I have ever read on the Ultimate pheasant forum, (and I've read a lot). You ought to write for a magazine. You worded the story in such a way it was filled with intrigue. I was all in; my interest, emotions and anticipation. A job well done. Keep writing I'll keep...

    First Oklahoma pheasant of the season.

    Yesterday was my 21st day hunting Drummond Flats WMA this season. I spent most of the morning watching the inauguration and finally got to the Flats and out hunting at 2:13 pm. Unusually cold for Oklahoma standards with temps in the 20's and wind approaching 12 mph. About 15 minutes into our...

    where’s Bob

    He was a rube, troll and used very inappropriate language, having used our Lord's name in vain. I for one had admonished him. I also had quit reading his posts and glad he is now History. Thanks web guy for having the "intestinal fortitude" to banish him.

    Slowing your dog

    He is five and does point pretty much, but will on occasion blink on Quail and than circle back and reset. It beats all I've ever seen!

    Slowing your dog

    How do you get your dog to slow down when they are on hot scent? My dog wants to put it in over drive when he is trailing a hot pheasant and no amount of anything will slow him down except the e-collar which will effectively kill the hunt. Any suggestions?
