    2024 gear review...what worked and what didn't?

    Carhartt Hooded Rain Defender Jacket paired with a heavy flannel shirt kept my torso comfortable in single digit temps weekend before last. Stormy Kromer Waxed Rancher cap also kept the noggin and ears warm.

    Lets See Your Dogs..post some pic's

    Stella is not a fan of her new chore coat… She didn’t hunt in it, but the spousal unit thought it would be a good idea for her to have it for the -27 wind chill temps that were in the forecast…

    where’s Bob

    I did not care for most of Goose’s posts, but I utilized the “ignore” function. Unless he resorted to some kind of profanity or harrassment I can’t see what would warrant a ban. Are there specific instances of postings that violate the board rules or policies?

    85lb lab from MS (very rarely gets in below 25deg here) that stays inside. We hunted 8"-12" of snow last year with no vest or boots and she didnt seem to mind going barefoot on the snow, but the ambient temps were in the low 20s to low 30s. I am scheduled to arrive in SD Thursday to 40deg...

    Tripping or Falling

    two years ago i was working through some thick and tall grass and stepped into a gopher hole all the way up to my knee. i didn't fight it and fell all the way to the ground, which probably spared a nasty injury to my knee. i did, however, tweak my back that apparently has a bulgin disc and give...

    Good Weekend in SD

    after looking images of both on the google machine, the ones we ran into looked more like the Burdock than a cocklebur. much bigger than a cocklebur. about the same size as a sweet gum ball, and had much more "cling" to it as far as the dog's coat and our flannel shirts and denim trousers...

    Good Weekend in SD

    tell me about those googles. the last day of our recent hunt, my lab looked like her eyes had been scratched out by limbs and some kind of hellacious sticker-balls after she went through in a thick shelter belt. she came out with bright red blood completetly around both eyes, and her coat was...

    what bird looks like a flying bowling pin?

    very similar shape, but i didnt notice any colored markings on the face, since they flew by in a flash. it was about 8-10 birds together. they were about the size of a small hen pheasant.

    Private land?

    I expect on-site lodging on or very near private hunting grounds during early-to-mid-season fetches a premium over an AirBnB or motel/hotel in a nearby town. a couple years ago, I stayed at a "package deal" commercial outfitter in KS who provided 2-night stay, 2-day hunt for $500 a day that...

    what bird looks like a flying bowling pin?

    while on our recent pheasant hunt in SD doing some late evening scouting in unfamiliar territory near chamberlain, we got buzzed by a group of birds out of a that flushed out of a grass field near the gravel road we were driving. when they were briefly flying beside the truck, they all had...
