    My Pheasant Hunting Farewell

    69 years... what a run. Do you have anything specific that really jumps out as memories you never want to forget? Special hunts, dogs, different states etc ?

    Wet Crispi Boots

    If youre young , strong and in shape they might be ok for hunting chuks. Even Crispi says they arent the ideal sidehill chuk boot. Not intended to be. They really are right in the middle for stiffness. Not to stiff while still offering some moderate support. I still love them. Very lightweight too.

    How far do you let your dogs go?

    I assume this question is really for the pointy dog guys. I hunt w a Springer and Golden so range isnt an issue.

    Sportdog vs garmin

    I just purchased a factory refurb 550+ and am looking for a sale on a tt25 if anyone sees one... Ive never run a gps unit in the past but have a 10 y/o Springer whose hearing is starting to fail so the peace of mind will be worth the hefty price tag. I dont want her going the wrong direction in...

    ISO dog boot recommendations

    If you go the dogbooties route dont wait to order as shipping can be a bit longer as they are in AK I believe

    Golden retriever

    Yes, Im on my 4th. Theyre the best all around package. Great noses, finding cripples, running birds, and they do it all with a smile on their face. Jaxson is from Nelson Kennels in MN.

    Do you add anything to your dogs water while hunting

    When Im on a trip I change absolutely nothing. If it works at home it will work anywhere. I dont need stomach issues

    Wet Crispi Boots

    see my post above. I have zero complaints so far. Doubt I will. They did run a tad small on me. I usually wear an 11 but these are perfect at an 11.5. YMMV

    ISO dog boot recommendations

    1000 denier boots from dog booties should do the trick. I was exposed to those ground level cactus in MT last year. Didnt know they existed. Agry lil ba$tards.

    Lots of hunters

    I dont know much about this equation but - what is the corn yield per acre now compared to 1979?

    Wet Crispi Boots

    Ive been wearing the new Crispi Upland Pros for a couple months including cool mornings w heavy dew. No issues w wet feet at all. They are the most comfortable boot Ive ever worn. Hope everything stays that way.

    Small game knives

    I find those Havalon knives difficult and therefore dangerous to change blades. Maybe its becuase I have short nails so its harder to pull up the blade release or something. I wish I liked them more. They make a lot of sense

    what areas do you look for on the map when deciding to hunt upland birds

    Yes those areas should/could/might hold birds but boots on the ground is the best not Copilot. Ive been learning MT for 20 years.
