Am looking at finally replacing my 1999 Chevy Silverado 1500 5.3L V8 Z71 4x4 after 170,000 miles. It's been a good truck, not too many problems over the years. I've always had Chevy's but not completely brand loyal. At home we have a Chevy, Ford, Toyota, Hyundai, and ('67 Plymouth!). Anyone...

Would folks on this site be interested in a thread with pictures of the variety of game our dogs have helped us take? Not just the "versatile breed" hunting dogs, retrievers/flushers are also versatile in my opinion, because they are better at waterfowl than my shivery shorthair would be, and...

I know this has been discussed before, but it probably need a sticky thread and I don't see one. The site will not let me post pictures, "upload failed". jpg file size only 440KB. Do I have to post elsehwere and just copy a link?

Hi, Has anyone tried prairie grouse in SD this year? I'll be heading out to west river to give them a go next week.

I would like to hear anyone's results from ruffed grouse hunting. I plan to wait a couple weeks before heading out to give it a try.

Hi, I live in the Twin Cities. I usually do a couple 2-3 day weekend trips in October somewhere in northern MN for ruffed grouse. Still looking for a really good ruffed grouse area. I know of some OK spots. Usually just me and my GSP. It's not real practical to hunt 2 guys over one dog in the...

With everything else being down, I was wondering what's going on with ag land prices lately? Still going up?

Some fun we had with Photoshop after a MN pheasant hunt.

Feel free to remove this thread.

I requested one a long time ago but no sign of it yet. I know they are available in SD, did any SD nonresidents get theirs in the mail yet?

I will provide a MN ruffed grouse report in a couple weeks. Meanwhile, does anyone else have reports they would like to give? We would all like to hear them.

This is a West River SD report for Dec 29 & 30. Was at the in-laws' farm/ranch. There are always some birds around the area, some years better than others, most years I don't even hunt there. I was not expecting much this year but was very surprised. Due to late crop maturity and farmers that...

Hoping to get in one more hunt in NCentral SD around Jan 1. For those that have been hunting them lately, what kind of cover has been working for you? Shelter belts around farm houses usually hold them this time of year, but will not have access and they are usually really hard to kill from...

Hi All, Another new guy coming over from PC where I was huntsman, but signed up here with a new name. I live in Bloomington, MN but was raised in western SD. I hunt grouse, pheasants, and western big game. The bear picture you see is a big ol' grizzly running right past our caribou camp in...
