I really doubt any of the farms I can hunt, that I have sole premission....maybe one. I would never ask for that. Heck, I do assume there are people who sneak in to my own, luckily there are neighbors to it that call me if my truck it isn't there when they see hunters. Never received any...

Walk, this was a great thread that many can relate to and add their opinions. A ton of ideas throw out, had to seem a bit overwhelming. Maybe try a couple, whatever you choose, you will be fine next season, after you forget about this one. Need these type of threads on the off-season to keep...

A5s #4 and #5, in my opinion, are the most important things you can do (watch the dog and be ready). I would add pheasants are much easier to shoot inside of 30 yards using an IC choke, particularly if you are not a super shot (which is me). I think most of my shooting is inside of 40 yards...

Maybe it is just too many distractions, try using one dog and dump the camera, you have created too much stuff going on. I am not sure what is with the new trend of recording and posting your hunts these days. Maybe cameras have got smaller and cheaper. Kind of like buying a GSP collar...

Not sure where you are from, but welcome to the forum. I am in Iowa and I often see rifles in the mixes, 270, 30-06 etc,...if you aren't in a state where you can deer hunt with the rifle cartridge, maybe pick one that you can hunt with. I guess I have pretty much anything I would want. Maybe...

That is a real bummer BC. Sneak up here next year some weekend next season and well get you birds. If the habitat is not there, the birds will not be there. Creation of habitat can produce amazing results.

Be ready all the time, always be expecting a flush, it won't seem like a rush if you are ready. Often the people I hunt with are looking at the ground, holding the gun like a suitcase or over their shoulder, most folks are not successful doing those things when a bird flushes. Get that gun...

I used to blend over to a higher protein/fat recipe of the same brand of food, until about the 3rd time my vet my told me to quit doing that. Use a maintenance formula year around now.

I am thinking KEO is an Iowa fella. I called one of the local Coop agronomy guys for some input on fertilizer for our grain sorghum foot plots....he was out of his element with that. The only sorghum I have seen in Iowa has been in foot plots. If it weren't for PF, I am not sure where I would...

I have been wearing a pair of Thorogoods for the past 2 seasons, like them a lot. Found them at 50% off in Fleet Farm, $120. Haven't weighed them, they aren't a lightweight at all.

I seems you have read my posts!

I can be found in Cherokee, Plymouth and Woodbury counties. Might have been with a friend once or twice in Monona cty.

Captain Obvious! Maybe some other city kid punched it....I didn't say you shot the thing, but that would have been awkward if you had. I am glad you clarified it. Maybe it was a good thing the hand didn't roll it over. Oops!

59° outside currently. If the season was still open, it would be almost too warm in late January to run my GSP! Are the Dakotas unseasonably warm also today? You guys run thru January, right? Here is our global warming at work. I just looked at the 10-day forecast the "lowest" high temp is...

Those googles just make you smile!

I know Kevin is a SC guy and McFarmer is about an hour north...any other members in this part of the state? So many members here have nothing in their bio on their location, not even as vague as just a state even. I suppose they afraid of someone hot spotting their state. If the state was a...

I saw no quail this year. The one place I have seen a covey of quail this decade, I didn't hunt this past season....the landowner hadn't heard them after last winter. We didn't shoot them then, just not enough around to kill the few that might be here locally. Would love to get some coveys...

It can always be the landowner is a member/sponsor/supporter of PF. I would guess it is maybe a 50/50 split on banquet attendees, who are actually hunters and those that aren't. A lot of landowners and folks who used to hunt support them. It takes more than just a few of the actual hunters...

That makes some sence. Those orange signs you can purchase, such as PF Habitat Coordinator or similar, I think they have 3 different ones. A guy, such as myself, might post one on their habitat as noting their PF affiliation and probably some type of assistance that involved PF. The...
