    Bad start to the year

    That's unfortunate. How exactly did she "hang" herself?

    Looking good!

    Broods that are only 2 weeks old? Not sure I buy that one. It must be a misprint.

    New NW Iowa Pheasant Hunter

    I agree with Gladhunter above; the stop and go method works pretty well without a dog. I hunted without a dog for years before I was able to own one. Take 10 steps, pause, 10 more steps, pause. Birds will flush when you are standing still. Try to hunt thinner cover. Forget about cattail...

    Start of Minnesota 2025-2026 season countdown

    I can't imagine hunting in this heat. Grouse season opened today, as did deer archery. Completely miserable.

    Montefeltro or Ethos ?

    My monty holds 5. However, I keep my plug in the magazine because I don't like the added forward weight of those 2 added shells.

    Montefeltro or Ethos ?

    Gotcha. So as long as the bolt is all the way forward this problem shouldn't occur, is that what you're saying? I'll just try to remember to check it more often.

    Montefeltro or Ethos ?

    Mine is from 2007 so it's close to 20 years old now too. 12 gauge. It's never failed me once. What is this "click" you speak of? The shotgun just fails to fire or what?

    Harvest already starting

    I can't imagine there's going to be a mad rush to harvest this season, looking at the price. Corn has gone from about $5/bushel close to $4 since May. Soybeans aren't any better. I'm not economist so I can't comment on specific reasons, but record yields and harvest are predicted, creating a...

    How many of you let birds go?

    The more people I meet, the more I like my dog.

    How many of you let birds go?

    Shocking, another bull shit statement by goose that makes you wonder wtf he is thinking. Guy should have been banned from this forum years ago. Shooting a hen is literally poaching.

    Time sensitive: Need vet that can do a medical termination of pregnancy for a dog in Minnesota or upper midwest

    Yikes. Hope you find what you're looking for. That is crazy. Bob Barker comes to mind here.

    What’s the best food?

    My lab is a 4-legged garbage disposal. I could feed her just about anything and she would still be hungry. She doesn't even hardly chew her food. She just inhales it right into the bottomless pit like a pelican.

    I think I am done with this thread. Can't reason with some individuals. You guys hunt how you want to and I'll hunt how I want to. Good luck this season.

    How many of you let birds go?

    I don't make any of those noises mentioned. Literally, none of them. It's a factor I can control, so I am going to control it. Limiting the amount of noise I make while I'm deer, turkey, or pheasant hunting is a big part of what I am trying to do out there. Unnatural sounds tip off game...

    How many of you let birds go?

    A lot of people here hunt public land and late season roosters aren't dumb. The single most important factor is how much noise you make. The only noise you should be making is when you pull the trigger. You wouldn't yell DOE! every time a female deer came past your stand either.
