There was a cheer competition going on Sunday when I went and parking was tough to come by, so I bit the bullet and gave them $30. We had a great time looking and chatting at all the booths. You could tell by Sunday though, they were tired!! A lot of very well behaved dogs at the booths too.

No room for one right now, but I would like to see the pups. I am curious if you get any solid ones. I have owned several solid livers, but never a black.

I went to the last one in KC and plan on going to this one as well.

I have never heard of this group, I will check it out.

I ran a pup I had through the AKC Jr Hunt test once, she passed with flying colors but couldn't understand how I missed that bird. HA HA, I don't think she believed that I had to shoot blanks.

Thank you for the info. I ran one of my shorthairs in a NSTRA competition as a fill-in dog in Utah about 25 years ago. Everyone was very welcoming and it seemed like a cool format, but I just never got into it. The breeder of one of my shorthairs had a multi champion dog, Clown, that was very...

I was out hunting in the NW on Saturday and the dogs pointed one covey of quail. There were only 5 or 6 birds in the covey so I let them fly. It was public land and I would imagine they had been hammered.

Now that the season is wrapping up, I was curious how many do field trials or NSTRA in this group? I need to get my dogs more bird contact this off season and was thinking of checking out some of these options.

We saw deer every day, mostly does and a couple small bucks. We didn't end up shooting any deer, but had a good time exploring some new country!

Thanks! We are planning on hitting some of the bigger WIHAs to hopefully get away from the roads far enough

I am bringing my son, he has a whitetail tag, I have a muley tag. If we find one that would be great, if not, I spent the weekend hunting with my son.

Yes, I know this is a Pheasant Hunting forum, but I thought I would take a swing for the fences and see if any of you have been pheasant hunting in the St. Francis area this year and saw some deer. I will be heading out there this weekend for one last hoorah before the rifle season ends. It is...

I used to have access to property that was farmed for birds, not crops and even that property was having a hard time producing birds. It was good for a rooster or two every time out, which was good for training kids and young dogs, but it was sold last spring. I think we will be heading to SD...

I have only been hunting KS since the late 90s and can't even imagine what pheasant numbers looked like prior, because I thought they were amazing then! Sadly it has been in a decline (at least in the area I hunt) since the early 2000s. Numbers have gone up and down, but nothing like it was in...

I can also give you a weather forecast....It may or may not rain this week. ;)
