    Bigfoot

    Alright guys, posted this in another forum I’m on but I’m watching a Bigfoot show this morning. Sometimes I go down the rabbit hole of big foot content . It is entertaining. Always makes me think what is out there in the woods. The mystery. It’s obviously ridiculous and extremely unlikely. The...

    Let's Bitch (Can't Hunt)

    Same. I’m completely disconnected from it all though I do enjoy a NA beer. They make some pretty good ones now days. I was headed towards an early grave or prison, I partied pretty hard as a young man and consider myself extremely lucky to still be here and have the life I have. But lots of...

    Let's Bitch (Can't Hunt)

    Nah I quit drinking 9 years ago now. Now soda, Red Bull, and terrible food I am very much hooked. I have a pretty active job so that’s nothing.

    Why did you go with the breed that you did and have you been satisfied?

    Springer. Because I had a few growing up. Always just been THE breed to me. They will go through just about anything with a smile, get bloody, and then want more. They just keep going. Mine goes 100mph, Really have to be on your toes. I took my dad out a few times this year and was kinda...

    Gear That Lasted At Least A Decade?

    My old man said when he was growing up ( southern MN) they were some wild packs of dogs around. But your yelling reminds me of the screaming I’ve had to do to my neighbors hound dog. I hate that thing, don’t trust it one bit. I’ve had a few not so nice convos with them. They have gotten...

    Gear That Lasted At Least A Decade?

    Well I don’t shoot them either, I know others who have. Guess it never occurred to me about potential damage they could cause. But they are most certainly feral cats. Maybe started out as farm cats, but they are out there and they breed.

    Gear That Lasted At Least A Decade?

    At least in MN they are definitely around. I know lots of people who may leave stuff out for them and see them every few weeks. But they are wild.

    Gear That Lasted At Least A Decade?

    I’ve had T-shirts that have lasted 15 years. Truly amazing considering some of the shirts I buy now days last a few months. Bought a polo shirt from a golf club early teens that I still wear every time I go. Pair of winter boots from Walmart, pair of upland pants, many other things. It’s...

    Hunting in europe

    Actually I was at a popular preserve near me this year ( yes I know thumbs down on game farms) and they had something going on that was similar. Don’t remember what they called it ( a European or continental maybe?) where tons of guys post and they release lots of birds from the middle of the...

    Muddy paws in house.

    This is pretty much my layout as well. Sliding door to mudroom off kitchen with her crate in there with door off. We have a baby gate blocking the room. The yard has been just such a mess lately ( she uses it as a racetrack) paws and legs just aren’t coming clean. Just the way it is I guess.

    Muddy paws in house.

    So the pup hasn’t got past the mudroom lately. She is always just so dirty and her paws just to muddy, darn mud in February. Anyone else dealing with this? Sure I can give her a bath but dirty an hour later. Wipe her paws with a towel but that really isn’t that effective either.

    Worst things that happened while hunting ?

    Ha yikes! Thats brutal. Not really bad at all but I almost stepped on a possum playing dead walking through a slough when I was younger. I happened to look down mid step and it was right under me. My god they are ugly. Yeah I was freaked out a bit walking in tall grass for awhile, still think...

    Crazy weather

    My snowblower is sitting in the corner of the garage with a flat tire and gas still in it from last year. That old Ariens starts everytime though. I shoveled once and used my leaf blower once for snow this year, and that probably wasn’t even necessary. Couldn’t get a tee time at a decent time...

    Crazy weather

    Think I might hit the links for a quick round today, mow the lawn after, and maybe even pour a little concrete today. Ha! Craziness.

    First Bird Dog

    Oh boy! Have fun. Remember it’s just a dog. Try not to worry about doing everything right and expecting to much. I think I was so worried about doing everything right I ended up doing everything wrong. Lots of great advice on here and the internet but don’t get to wrapped up in it. I did and it...

    Retrieves everything except birds...

    Has the pup had an actual pheasant or bird in its mouth before? Hopefully not a silly question. Maybe if you have a game farm nearby, after she pins one after the shot, pick it up and dangle that bird and present it like the greatest thing in the world. Once they pick it up, let them carry it...

    Crazy weather

    Good explanation. Not sure why but I do have a feeling it’s going to be a very wet spring.
