    Replacing a stock on a Browning Citori

    https://forum.ultimatepheasanthunting.com/threads/browning-factory-repair.24362/post-262107 My experience several years ago. Took a lot of phone calls but they did a good job in the end. No problems since.

    Pic six

    Sounds like a challenge and an opportunity. Need a referee and video, drones, etc. Could be Academy Award possibilities? Sports Center? Maybe Las Vegas can set betting odds. Could be big money to be made. (Or lost). Think of the beer commercials, ticket sales. This could be big - really BIG! Or...

    Dog names and tributes

    In order, all Britts -- Duchess, Dakota (male), Lady, Frankie, Bandit, Dakota (female), Bear, Kate, Rocky, Reece. Duchess was my first, 1982, thought it sounded Brittany. Bear is now 15 and sadly, doesn't have much time left.

    Runners

    Little different approach. 1. Haven't had a blocker in many years. Just me, maybe one more guy sometimes, and my dog(s). Less chance of talking and more chance of saying "Good Boy Rocky!" 2. Agree with Drew and of course GH. Quiet getting out of the truck one of my pet peeves. When I'm solo...

    Best GoPro 8 settings

    GH - I've used the bill attachment too, but always felt front heavy to me. This has the weight 3-4 inches further back. I'm not crazy about the black hat, but the gopro mount is stitched into the front of the cap so it could be changed easily. I've been using it when I run the dogs on the farm...

    Best GoPro 8 settings

    New strap vest

    Had mine for 2 years. Best I've had. Very customizable and comfortable - distributes the weight well even with a limit of roosters Not sure about a 100 oz bladder. I use that space to carry first aid for dogs and cable cutter.

    Killer traps

    FYI -- Minnesota Trappers Association has 2 free kits with instructions for releasing a conibear trap. Uses zip ties so trap is locked open. I've ordered mine today.

    So you want to hunt public land in South Dakota?

    Can't agree with that part of your post. I hunt both private and public. The really awesome people I've met that have given me permission to hunt on their property are not just out for themselves. They are just good, decent, honest hardworking people. I'm lucky to be allowed to hunt their farms.

    Keeping your dog healthy during the season

    Great points. Couple of other things to consider - Conditions when you are hunting. Was in SD one year and it was 90 degrees. Snow drifts are brutal on hunters and dogs. Much more caution required. Preseason conditioning and training. May have to try some glycocharge.

    Keeping your dog healthy during the season

    My family had Boston terriers when I was growing up. Great family dogs!

    Keeping your dog healthy during the season

    Thats an easy question for me. Both. I have bird dogs because I hunt. If I didn't hunt, I'd probably have a Boston Terrier. My dogs always hunted back-to-back days for at least 5 days. I think if I didn't hunt them every day, I would have gotten bit. They would have been very disappointed in...

    Canada Gamebird Ban

    No one said it would prevent the spread. It may reduce the spread. So, weigh the risk of catastrophic loss to a farmer raising turkeys or chickens to support their family and the families of any employees to bringing duck and geese carcasses from Canada into the US. Right decision in my opinion.

    Howard Vincent retiring from PF

    Thanks for your response. Couple of thoughts. I have dealt with PF and QF field types never had a desire to hobnob with the corporate types. The field types IMO are smart, dedicated, down to earth folks -- I support their efforts to improve pheasants and pheasant hunting. I do that by being a...
