    Trailer grease

    I don't have a dog trailer either. I use my trailers to haul camping equipment, bags and coolers for elk or bear hunts, birds and equipment for hunt tests, for my SxS or my lawn mower or whatever else needs to be moved. I find them pretty handy to have around. My dogs ride inside the truck...

    Trailer grease

    FWIW and for no particular reason, I bought a couple brands of grease today(instead of one) Valvoline and Lucas. I'm going to use the Valvoline Extreme on my small open bed that I'll be driving up to ND in a few weeks and I'm going to use the Lucas Red & Tacky on a small enclosed trailer that I...

    NW ND prairie bird count dropped significantly

    I'm coming to NW ND at the end of the month. Fortunately, we got access to hunt some private land through a friend. Weather should be pretty good. I'm looking forward to it.

    Trailer grease

    My small trailer has the Dexter EZ lube system and I need to put in some fresh bearing grease before I take it on my next trip. Planning on keeping it simple and buying a couple tubes of the Lucas Red n Tacky tomorrow unless someone has a better recommendation. I can get Mystic and Valvoline red...

    Wet Crispi Boots

    I'm getting there. I used to go up to Canada for deer and I've stopped doing that. I am getting a bit old for elk hunting and I probably have 1 trip left in me before I give up that ghost. After that, hunting birds with my dogs will be the only thing between me and the nursing home.

    Wet Crispi Boots

    I would like to try a pair of the Crispi Upland Pro's but I can't justify it. I had bought an extra pair of Irish Setter Wingshooter boots a few years ago on sale and recently started wearing them. They aren't the best boots but they are comfortable and work well enough. I also talked myself...

    ISO dog boot recommendations

    I've never hunted an area with my dogs that we had to deal with cactus but we are going to some new areas this year and you guys have me thinking it might be a good idea to have some boots in the truck....just in case.

    Do you add anything to your dogs water while hunting

    I spike their morning water with a small amount of a food topper I make, before we leave the motel. They will drink the entire bowl. Dyne or chicken broth is also something you can add to water.

    How many of you let birds go?

    If I'm not positive its a rooster...I don't shoot. I try hard not to shoot hens.

    How many of you let birds go?

    If my dogs point it and I flush it, then I will shoot it as long as it is legal to shoot it. I pass on Jake turkey's, small bear, young deer and spike bull's but my dogs work hard for their birds....young or old so I make no effort to age a bird. Now if birds wild flush....I will pass on them.

    What’s the best food?

    I have a soon to be 13 year old spayed female Vizsla at home and I feed her the Nutrisource Lamb & Rice. It's a 24/13 formula and she gets 2 cups a day. It has worked well for her. I've been feeding my male Vizsla the same formula while he has been in his crate for the heartworm treatment. He...

    What’s the best food?

    I don't know what others look at when considering one dog food over another but one thing I strongly consider is kcal per cup because my Vizsla won't eat a lot of food in volume. FWIW, I did a comparison before I moved my dogs to Nutrisource. PPP chicken and & rice has 488 kcal per cup PPP...

    What’s the best food?

    I fed Inukshuk 30/25 for several months and it was fine at first. My GSP will eat anything and she did well on the Inukshuk...the problem I had was with my male Vizsla. He got to the point, where he simply wouldn't enough to keep weight on.. He was training and running in hunt tests and lost so...

    Small game knives

    This is the LL Bean knife I got over 30 years ago. I'm guessing it was made by Chicago Cutlery or one of the other US knife companies back then. LL Bean used to have an annual sale and would put all returned items on clearance pricing. Back then the store was open 24 hours and we would go up...
