Fun looking pair.

I guess he saved some money on wood studs, but would have to use the correct fasteners for aluminum studs. Interesting.

Sounds like a fun day and good that he was understanding about the chickens. How did he attach siding or inside panels to the metal pipe? Or even to poly tubing, if that is what it was?

I'd agree, in the case of a truly running pheasant, if both dogs start running at the same time. In my experience, the flushers are going to speed up when they get on scent, and most pointers are going to slow down. Some people are going to train out flushing behavior in pointers, under all...

Although possible, I am guessing most of us can't keep up with our dogs when they are sprinting. But I have had situations where I was able to cover enough distance to still be within shooting range when the bird flushes. Here is some rough math on that. Let's be conservative and give the...

I'm curious how people know when a bird is running? Are we calling all the following situations a running bird, even though most don't literally involve a running bird and none of them have a bird that is currently running? - a bird that is walking in a straight line now - a bird that was...

Man, those pen raised birds sure are wimpy. One lucky pellet to the noggin', and the skulls evaporate.

Nice photos! Looking forward to the 2/1 and 2/2 weekend photos, when you get them processed. Did the lack of a head on the 1/31 bird have any impact on its flush or flight path?

I can't speak to Oklahoma, but I often find areas where the roosters have been pushed off (or harvested) by other hunters. Plenty of hens, no roosters. It was private land, but maybe he allows others to hunt it. I also find that roosters tend roam more than hens, during the day. They could...

A spurless rooster that we found the last week of SD season on some private land that was inaccessible by roads. Had to hike 1.5+ miles across other private land to reach the cattails. He was a big boy, but was content to hide out way back in that pothole slough, where he didn't have to fight...

Their favorite actor?

Congratulations on your new world record! You had to beat out some damn fine hunters to claim that! They all absolutely have it coming, in some way, shape, or form. We need men like you holding that line, lest we are lost. Thank you for your service.

As someone who has hunted with both styles (and in between/optimized styles), I'll have fun watching this thread. :)

Those look like two happy dogs that had a ton of fun being out in and being a part of nature. Congratulations on your successful hunt!

I watched the video a few times. I am absolutely not a shooting expert, so take this with a grain of salt. But I do know how to miss birds. I am a bona fide, certified expert in that! 😂 To me, it looked like you missed right, low, behind, low, low, unknown. Because of the angle of the...

I have one of these in red and one in green. Either would work for the above drill too. https://www.amazon.com/MidTen-Chamber-Sight-Boresighter-12-Gauge/dp/B0B3SW9PM8
