I started with an 870 pump then needed a Benelli SBE. I killed a lot of birds with the third shot and have shot a few triples on Huns, pheasants and waterfowl. I switched to a Beretta over under last year. I wasn’t sure about only having two shots and taking slightly longer to reload. I did miss...

Thanks, I wasn’t sure about that.

Woollybob, unless I’m mistaking in MN you can walk your dogs on DNR controlled areas after July 14. I think they closed mid April and open again mid July.

Last I heard, you can donate them to a local food bank.

I disagree, the reason non tox like bismuth or tss is so expensive is it is not a common material. If we are made to shoot that kind of material the cost will just for up. Less supply more demand. I would bet even steel would get higher. Just my opinion

Dogrunner, if you would, let me know how it goes. Any information is appreciated!

Hello I’m looking for an update on the how the habitat looks in NE Montana. I have been looking at drought monitoring and precipitation maps, but would like some boots on the ground thoughts. How thin is the cover? How did the birds fare this year so far? Any information is appreciated!! I’m...

No, he is a resident of MN, if he buys a SD license and gets caught he will pay a fine. Plus if he gets caught using his SD license he could pay another fine. Look at his SD license, I’ll bet a corner was cut, law enforcement/ co’s will know its invalid. They do that during the process of...

12 gauge I/c all season, 28 gauge LM/mod early mod/IM late

I was traveling east on 94 in MN last week and saw several ducks with tiny (ping pong ball) size duckings. About 8 ducklings per hen

Iowa has deer leases all over. And no purple paint because you have to have landowner permission to step foot on the ground or your trespassing. In areas with quality deer it’s almost impossible to get permission. Also with blue tongue deer populations are still low. Iowa also has very little...

Off season I feed one cup am and then run the dog 2 plus hours later. Then pm feeding is 2 cups. During the season he gets all 3 cups plus some wet only pm. Always with water(floating). My dog if feed to close to runs he will shit it all out causing loose stools.

My short hair averages over 3 miles to my 1 when hunting. Lots of variables but that’s about normal. Some days he may do 6 plus to my one other days 2. A friend had a drahthar and she didn’t put on near the miles as she hunted close and my gsp has a lot more range over the same cover/ day.

I hunt a lot of wpa’s and get a couple a year. Believe it or not a lightly hit bird can swim pretty good!

I have a gsp and he stays in the truck cab in a kennel over night when we hunt in ND. I would not have any issue leaving him for half a day while hunting waterfowl. The weather doesn’t matter as he has a pad in the kennel and if it’s super cold I cover the kennel with a blanket. The group I hunt...

I saw my first yesterday morning in MN on my way to SD. I saw about eight little ones with a hen on the side of the black top. Could have been more the grass was tall.

I used an over under in 28 gauge all last season. I used mod/improved mod and never had any complaints.

I have a 28 that I used all last season on pheasant, sharpies and Huns. I used fiocchi gp 6’s in lead. And I used Kent upland 6’s in bismuth. No complaints on bird killing with either. I also picked up some Boss bismuth in 5’s but haven’t really had the chance to compare them to the others. I...

Sorry for your loss. It is never easy. Take care

Capecodmike Sorry i don’t have a lead for a place to stay But I say go have some fun. I hunt Montana with one dog and he does fine. We target pheasant and pick up Huns and sharpies as we find them. My dog has never had a pad issue(has busted a couple toe nails, hasn’t slowed him down) he puts on...
