    Trailer grease

    Another thing to consider-i know its an advertisement but Ruffland (overpriced imo) has a commercial on how a box could save ur dog. You get into a rollover or rearended and ur dog could easily be tossed through a windshield. Dead.

    Duck Camp strap vest

    Came across this and really like the looks of it. Anyone have one? Hows access to water bottles and loading? Every year my shoulders seem to get stiffer and the Rogers vest I have is getting near impossible to access. Would love to but cant justify the 350 dollar vests so exploring other options.

    Wet Crispi Boots

    Ive noticed that my crispis make my feet feel like theyre wet, but when I take them off-bone dry on the inside. It must be how amputees claim to still feel their limbs. My feet were so used to being wet from wearing Danners, theyre feeling phantom wetness.

    We will have to agree to disagree. I think its about triple what is even close to reasonable.

    Thinking about a new gun, suggestions?

    One I forgot to mention that is sweet but very tough to find is a Franchi 620 variopress. Had mine for 20 years and will use it for 20 more if Im able. It’s a very light 20 gauge. There was one in GB a few months ago Im kinda kicking myself for not grabbing.

    Thinking about a new gun, suggestions?

    Are the newer Franchi Affinitys prone to that?

    Ya those impala plus are susceptible to that. I vividly remember the when and where last year….

    Thinking about a new gun, suggestions?

    You can get the older style Benelli ultralight for around a grand on gunbroker. If I was set on spending a grand, Id probably wait out a new old stock old model on Gunbroker. If it was my money, and I wanted a 20 gauge, I would look at a Stoeger 3020 upland. Less than 600 buckd and weighs...

    what areas do you look for on the map when deciding to hunt upland birds

    its been my experience that until you see if with your own eyes, you cant know whether to hunt it. I would just pick any area with the most concentrated amount of public and go from there

    Update to the optimism post earlier!!

    Im in the toilet of SE SD. Numbers are not great here. I see nothing driving a half hour every day. I imagine that west of me is far better.

    Do you carry a dog first aid kit while hunting and if so what should be in one

    Antibiotic and a medical stapler. I should prob have a cable cutter, but no one is trapping so I just havent. Can you handle a 220 body grip by hand? You should look that up if you havent. I stapled my dog up 5 minutes before the opening day bell last year after I let her out to burn off steam...

    Ithaca 37 Turkeyslayer safey failure

    Just picked it up from my ffl today after buying on gunbroker. Its a year 2000 model. I always text the safety out when I buy a gun and never had a failure til now. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt. There appears to be a lot of slop or play in the safety front to back, not just sliding in...

    Aberdeen or Watertown?

    The farther you can get from the shitholes Sioux Falls and Minneapolis the better. Aberdeen.

    Fall speculation

    The flooding in SE SD has been in the last couple weeks and it’s been minimal. I would look at eastern iowa or western illinois after the last deracho came through a few days ago. I think a lot of our chics were deposited there

    Playing with patterns

    I think that pattern looks fine for what your intentions are. Id want a turkey choke a little tighter personally but for late season roosters looks good. 20 yards-you may have a blown up bird. Lets face it, most of us shoot a ways past 40 yards now and then. Different settings and angles make...

    Most Satisfying Shot

    Great story! I wasnt sure if this was one of those “post yours”, but i will. I had three of my most satisfying shots about 17 years ago with a 12 year old shorthair female who was all business most of her hunting career. Something about her was just different and programmed to kill birds...

    hunting sunglass for this fall

    My eyes hurt when Im outside, even when it’s cloudy. I have purchased the sunglasses off the spinning rack at scheels for the last 18 years. They are polarized and 25 bucks. Black. I do not have a problem distinguishing hens from roosters. I would if I didnt wear them, because my eyes would...
