    2022 Season In Pictures

    Just got back home from ND. Covered a lot of miles- birds were “spotty”. We were in them or we weren’t- staying mobile was the key. Saw a lot of birds no doubt- had some long 400 and 500 yard races. LOTS of Huns- hunting them in October is not the same game as September! They had our number...

    Non-toxic shot: The whole truth

    I just bought 4 boxes fiocchi last week- lead was $15/box. The steel fiocchi which I’ve never shot before was $17/box. I started loading up on steel as I plan to hunt a fair amount in Iowa this year- not sure if I’ll go to Kansas at all after the opener this year.

    Am I the only one with birds to eat yet?

    I’m laying here in a hotel room in Ames, looking through my maps, and researched info. Going to do some scouting early in the morning. im about an hour south of the breeders place in NC. It took me 11 hrs to get here. My brother is getting a GSP. We currently have 2 each. Pretty excited for him.

    Wheat Harvest

    I think I might be turning a corner with Kansas. I’m really on the fence about spending my money elsewhere. Been going there since the 90’s, many great hunts but the last few years have been hard. I just don’t feel like the state gives a rats a$$ about a great natural resource they have. The...

It was fairly cool out. We had 3” of snow on the ground the week before where I killed her. They do in...

    Hunting & Camping

There are quite a few rv parks in Kansas - some have bath houses too. Research this before you leave- you should...
