    Pheasants in the wind, a specific situation

    All I know is that if I don’t get them with the first barrel the second is usually a waste. And if I do hit them with the second barrel the dog has one heck of a retrieval.

    Looking for potential hunting partners in south central nebraska

    I might be in the area. I haven’t hunted there the last couple years because the numbers were so bad. Seems you got some rain so could consider stopping on my way south. I’m ancient with a car load of goldens, we don’t kill many but sure put a lot in the air.

    Inheritance

    Well crap you now have me thinking of what I should do with my guns when I pass. There's a safe full of good deals, mistakes, and just plane what was I thinking along with some heavily used ones. I do have a Winchester 30-30 that I bought from an old guy on the street when I first entered...

    Long Distance Traveling for Birds

    When it is consistently cold we drain the water. Just used truck stops for showers. We either use the camper toilet and dump some RV antifreeze in it or use a portapotty and dump it every couple days. Managed down to minus 25 that way okay, minus 40 and the wife threatened to leave.

    Long Distance Traveling for Birds

    Been at home since February, camping this weekend at a dog trial. Wife and I both miss the long road trips, planning for fall hunting already. Trailer is way better for peaceful sleep.

    E-collar question

    Been happy with sport dog, but I run retrievers. Some of mine are so old the plastic part of the collar has worn out but the mechanics are still going strong.

    Governor Noem writes about her hunting dog

    Don't think for most of us this is remotely political. I personally could care less about her beliefs and views. The only thing I find important here is that she used poor judgement in a fit of anger and then wrote about it. This was in poor taste. Her political views could be 100% aligned with...

    Dog Breed Popularity

    My 4 year old female has almost less hair than a lab. She picks up a few burrs in her tail, that's about it. Just MACHed her last weekend so she has multiple talents.

    Dog Breed Popularity

    I think Golden Boy has a couple litters in the works. My field bred Goldens are small short coated and wirery. My young female tops out just over 40 pounds and my males are around 50. Most show and pet Goldens add 20 to 30 pounds on them.

    Water in the field...

    I’ve taught my dogs to drink out of a disposable squirt water bottle. The 16 or 20 oz size. When they get thirsty in the field they come up and I squirt it down their throats. No waste and off they go. I have water jugs and bowls at the truck but the squirt bottles keep them going for a long time.
