If anyone is looking for a Garmin, there is a DC40 in the bargain cave at Rogers Cabelas for cheap. I think it was $322.00. I'd have bought it if I had the money. They said it has a 30 day return policy on the bargain cave unit.

The first is of my spriner Ellie at about 14 weeks. The other is of my little boy last June when I was pup shopping (ended up getting the red setter).

Well the wife got cut today from her teaching job for next year. I've been wanting to move south for some time now, maybe now is the time. I like Kansas and Oklahoma. Does anyone know anything about how the job market is for elementary teachers? We are looking at maybe Hays, Wichita...

This is starting to get ridiculous. I've been trying to talk the wife into moving to Oklahoma or something.

I built a quail recall pen this weekend and bought 12 bobs. I found the plan in an old Gundog magazine. When I was putting the birds in one got loose in the garage, so this will be its first big test. I planted a bird in a foot trap and let my 10 month old setter run around. He went on a...

Well, I decided to rehome my 4 year old springer, Elmer. He just does not have what it takes in the nose dept. Tremendous drive, but couldn't smell his own fart. Never buy a pup from a backyard breeder!! I have and excellent female springer from Pine Shadows, and a 10 month old red setter...

I have a 3.5 year old springer that was my first hunting dog. I bought him from a backyard breeder. He is a great dog in the house and with my kid. He has tremendous desire and will to please in the field. The trouble is, he just does not have a nose. I brought him out training with a bunch...

What kind of new gear are you hoping to get for next season? How about reviews for new products you bought for this season wrapping up? I am planning on getting a new jacket for next year as well as getting a beeper collar for my setter pup..

I went out today for a grouse walk but the snow was way too deep. I guess I have to hang it up for the year. This year was a bit of a let down for me. I didn't get out nearly as much as I hoped to. It would be nice to make another trip south to Kansas and extend the season, but I don't think...

Is anyone still going out or is the snow too deep? I was thinking about going for some grouse this week...

I will be going down there this winter and I am thinking about bringing the dogs and trying it out.

Do you guys shoot bumped birds over a 7 month setter or only pointed birds?

Hi Guys, My cousin and I hunted in the Wakeeney area last January and had a great time. We are headed back to Kansas in about 10 days, weather permitting. We plan on hunting the same area for 3-4 days, but wanted to try somewhere new for the first day. Somewhere with more quail but still...

I know this weather is great for everything else, but it is so wet out there that I wish the sloughs would freeze. There are a lot of birds hanging out in the cattails and I don't want to sport my waders.

How many dogs does everybody have for hunting? How many do you normally run at a time? I have 3. 2 springer spaniels and a 6 month old red setter.

I have a red setter pup. When I run him in the field he is pretty hard to see. In the woods will probably be almost impossible. I have had a couple of orage vests for my other dogs, but the velcro always releases and they fall off. I think I have lost 2 or 3 of them now. I have also found a...

I have been kicking around heading to NW North Dakota to try for a mixed bag of pheasants and huns. What are the opportunities like in that area? Thanks

I am extremely anxious to get out there and shoot some birds on Saturday. It may be a little warm, according to the forecast. It actually seems like there may be a decent number of birds and that a fair sized chunk of the corn will be picked.

I sent a leaky pair of boots back and I am able to get any Gore Tex boot of my choosing. I would like a taller, uninsulated boot. Does anyone have any suggestions on what to look at? It has to be Gore Tex waterproofing, but any brand boot is ok for the warranty.

Ernie, my 5 month old red setter sometimes gets a mind of his own. When I run him, he wants to do his own thing and run out of range. Being a flusher guy until now, it is a little stressful not being able to see my dog. I think that I would like to keep him in the 100-150 yard range in the...
