"No matter where you go there you are"

I never thought about SD as a wintertime destination until my daughter, who works for Gopro, sent me this: GoPro Goes Off the Beaten Path: Uncovering South Dakota’s Hidden Winter Adventures

I use Simparica Trio on both our Labs. We occasionally find a dead tick in the house which is the way I like to find ticks :)

Here's a link to the Meateater article on the ruling. Corner Crossing ruling

AKSkeeter said, "On extremely steep slopes like blue grouse eating mountain ash berries on steep avalanche chutes, I let my lab track way out of range. The slope is so steep, the grouse always flush down for exciting overhead shooting. On steep chukar slopes, the same...the flush down as the lab...

Sorry that you lost Max. Your dogs are family and I know it hurts.

There was a thread a while back that centered on Flushers, Pointers and "Versatile dogs" (whatever that means). It went on for a while, and like others on the same topic, ended up with what works for you.

I guess none of that happens while hunting. But it's your rules and it sounds like you want the site to be more "gucci".

I'm with you. If you're bothered by his posts/replies just don't read them.

Goose, since you use a truck camper you may want to think about if a F150 can handle the weight of your camper. A friend dropped one into his 1/2 ton and while it kind of worked, ended up upgrading to a 3/4 ton so he felt more comfortable with the overall handling.

Brown Dog, I've seen comments in the Ford forums about "death wobble" in trucks which is really bad front end shaking. On the other hand if it wasn't severe it could have been misalignment or tires way out of balance. None of my trucks ever had anything other tire balance vibrations

Good luck with the surgery. I'm about to turn 81, have been blessed with good health so far and don't own a recliner.

Had a 2016 F150 EcoBoost Crew Cab. Put lots of miles on it Utah to SD and more miles pulling a 24ft trailer all over the west. Dogs loved having the back area with the seats folded up. Never gave me a big problem but it did like to eat throttle bodies every so often, Sold it late last year...

Why stop there?

From one geezer to another, glad to see you still getting out !
