Stella’s Midnight Star, named after the proprietor (Stella, played by Linda Hunt) of the saloon (Midnight Star) in the film Silverado. My dad took me to see Silverado in the theatre when it came out in the 80’s. It is one of the first movies I remember seeing in a theatre, and still one of my...

I drove from vburg, Ms to north Sioux City Thursday en route to Mitchell for an extended trip that has me solo with my two year old lab until Thursday night. I hunted between Yankton and Mitchell Friday, and between mitchell and chamberlain today. I dont catch up with the rest of my group...

Where I am from, there are very few opportunities for quail and dove hunting on state or federally owed lands. As far as i know, we dont have any other upland bird species available, except for maybe woodcock and snipe. The big three game animals around here are deer, duck, and turkey; and...

My first experience with SD pheasant hunting was in 2015. A buddy invited me to join a group on their second year hunting with a guide outfitter on a private farm. He and I decided to drive up from Mississippi several days early to take in Rushmore, Custer, and the Badlands before meeting the...

Is there a chest protector vest that also has a ring to clip on a leash so it can pull double duty as a harness?

back in 2007, my boss gave me a stoeger "uplander combo" after one of our clients had given it to him. he decided he's rather have a benelli auto loader so he gave me the stoeger. it has an english stock with a set of 28 ga. barrels and a set of 20ga. barrels... I make a point to carry it...

took my 16 month old lab out with me in february to hunt snipe. this was our very first experience snipe hunting and it didn't take long to realize the snipe don't let you near as close as pheasant and quail. anyway, from time to time, i'd take a break from walking through the bog and post up...

Stella was 12 months on her first pheasant hunt in November and 14 months on her second hunt in January. Always a good time in South Dakota. Can't wait to go back.

i've was gifted an stoeger sxs that came with a set of 20ga and a set of 28ga barrels. very few local sporting goods stores here in MS carried 28ga shells, and they were always more expensive than 12, 16, 20 and even .410 shells. however, over the last 18 months, it has been easier to find 28ga...

I think I got the pics fixed

a buddy of mine usually heads up a trip from MS to SD for a 3 day hunt in November. This year, he lined it up with the farmer in the spring, but had to back out on account of his boss getting the COVID a couple weeks before the trip. the rest of us decided to go anyway and i brought my 1yo lab...

When I came up to SD in November, I saw signs about a scheduled I-29 closure northbound north of Council Bluffs. I’m considering a last minute trip next weekend coming from Vicksburg, MS. Is I-29 currently closed anywhere between Missouri and Sioux Falls? Thanks I’m advance.

Left Vicksburg, MS a little late Saturday 11/6. Over packed as usual. Made it to Council Bluffs,IA. Back on the road before sun up Sunday 11/7 heading to Yankton. Road around looking for suitable fields between Yankton and Mitchell. Pulled in first field at 9:45. Got my gear ready and a truck...

Any recommendations on fuel for dog during lunch break?

I will be in a white Nissan Xterra with MS plates.

im hoping to be in the huron area monday morning, get lucky and finish up before lunch. then head up to watertown to take in the museum. stay the night in or around watertown and head southwest at sunrise to give it a go again.

Haven’t decided about meals yet. I figure I’ll get makings for sandwiches and the like for field lunches and try to find local flavor for dinner.

All great ideas! Most of the things I’ve got on hand but there are a few items, especially the K9 first aid stuff I’ll need to find in short order

good call on the boot dryer...
