    Ice Conditions in South Dakota

    Better safe then sorry. This weekend is supposed to make for some solid ice but there are waterfowl keeping spots open that haven't been open this time of the year for a long long time.

    Rabbits

    My male did chase 1 big whitetail buck after they got into a scrap in the bottom of the draw. Took me a second to figure out was happening as the dog was running that deer down 300 yards out in a plowed field. I yelled no and nicked him. He turned and trotted back as I apologized to the out of...

    New private ground

    I went to visit my nephew in Iowa and I commented how good the area looked for wildlife. He said yes it is pretty good for pheasants and unbelievable for whitetail. I need to clarify my nephew has been pheasant and deer hunting for 20+ years and shoots quite well. He has never shot a combine ...

    Merry Christmas

    Hunted 4 of the last 5 days with my son. We saw plenty of birds and got a fair number of roosters. Unseasonably warm but the birds were quite bunched up because there was a cold snap a week ago. Great way to spend Christmas!

    Saw another 105# dog.

    I have seen a 120 # lab that was not overweight. He was a very big dog. I have seen a 105 # Weimaraner that was not overweight. He was a big dog. I have seen a 230# Great Dane that probably should have weighed slightly less. I have seen many 100 # dogs that were not a 100 #s. I have seen 70 #...

    Rabbits

    Don't shoot anything on the ground , the dogs are way faster then most people's reflexes.

    Saw another 105# dog.

    Easier to give the dog a treat then take it for a walk.

    Saw another 105# dog.

    Dog may have been 90 #'s but at least it was probably only 10 overweight. What is the fascination with 100 pounders?

    When was the golden age of pheasant hunting?

    I was always told the late 50's. That's why many my dad's age would say there are no birds around in the 80's when I was getting heavy into pheasant hunting. I always countered with this is hunting you guys were harvesting.

    Hunted in the fog

    My son is back for Xmas so we went hunting this afternoon and plan on doing all week. Very foggy out this afternoon and no sun to melt frost off the grass. We got soaked but did manage a bird each. He was happy to get out and glad he connected on his 1 chance. First place we hunted is private...

    Is there a reason for your dog's name?

    The Big Delio. Reba for Reba McIntyre. Willie for silly willie.

    Land prices.

    CREP in S.Dak can match that so of course that pisses off local farmers who may lose ground.

    Future of CRP ?

    To add to this the big box stores cater more to deer hunters then us bird hunters. Deer guys take wildlife for granted as the whitetails thrive. Maybe the virus issue will create some interest in conservation on their side.
