It’s not the breed, it’s the parents. Genetics and more genetics

I assume they were shot before your handsome Golden found them for you. Nice pics, I salute proud owners. Quite a number of Field Bred Golden owners on this site including me. All pics are welcome. God bless.

Midwestern NICE is real. Have encounter some special people during my hunting trips over the last 55+ years. Some friendships were started in 1986 and still continued last fall. As the buildings get taller, the people get crazier. Attended school in a two room schoolhouse. Have enjoyed...

Certainly if it’s Oct. thru January, no so much April thru August. Life is trade offs, ask my friend who has been married four times.😊

Eat and hunt like a lottery winner😀😀👍👍

Short bus driver has no max.

LaBatts Blue eh!

The only trait a rooster has is the element of surprise and they use it well. Our recourse is anticipation and watching the dog. Experience is a wonderful teacher, but can be cruel. No reason to make the same mistake, take your own advice. Practice and practice some more. Clays can...

Silent auctions have been a great money maker. Everyone gets a number, that way you don’t know who you are betting against. Have some it items for the ladies. We once had a wife and husband bidding against each other, unknowningly. People might not raise their hand, but will write their...

Due to lack of training, I’ve seen too many pointers turn into flushers. Dog trained the owner.

The safety is the same on my Win101 Waterfowler. You can change that H into a V and will not get caught in the middle. Easy fix.

Civilized hell, if you crippled a bird you half killed it. Only one reason you carry a gun when hunting. Stay home and hunt on a video, you can release them that way and avoid cripples.

Get in the mood and kill it. Attitude

At almost 75, over the years I have worn out three pairs of Russells. Currently another pair of Russells and Schnee upland and pac boot. I rotate when I can and dry them out at night. I still put on six to ten miles when hunting. Always wondering what is over the hill.

Go where other people don’t. I avoid hitting the same property the next day, successful or not. Always pinch the property if possible. Take notes and write it down. The weakest ink is more permanent than the strongest mind. Property changes, learn to adapt. Hunting is mostly instinctive. God...

My boys know that these are the good old days. They have hunting dogs and families. I have provided equipment and opportunities. Taking the time to go is the deciding factor. My FiL asked my wife if I hunted and fished too much, she said Dad, he doesn’t smoke or drink too much and he doesn’t...

It takes a while to find and keep good property access. Or marry into the family. 😜

Welcome to the site. If you found hens, there are roosters nearby, hunt harder and have faith in your dog.

Schnee and Russell.

Tough area to protect, some protection better than none. Your pants are better than shorts. We do our best to avoid barb wire. I carry a staple gun, but try to avoid using one.
