I was the dog for a lot of years when young when hunting with cousin’s. My first personal dog was a lab when I was a teen. After I got out of the service I bought a shorthair. No idea what I had, no training, she was a rockstar! Then after the crp disappeared and so did the pheasant, I got back...

Hard fought public land bird

Got out today just as the snow quit. I was heading to a small WMA but as I passed a WPA, I saw two roosters in some willows near the road. Plan was too just park down the road and take the edge back to the willows to see if I could get one and then head to the WMA. I let the dog out and was...

The majority of coyotes I have come across when out will run away. Depending on how hard the area is hunted for them, most will stop at a distance and check you out. I have not had a coyote attack any of dogs I have hunted behind. I did have a cool experience a few years ago in ND. I was walking...

That sucks, hope everyone is safe

I am also interested in the group size limits. I don’t like to group hunt but do occasionally. I hunt both ND and MN and know in ND you have to shoot your own birds and in MN you can party hunt.

Or look at their Facebook Fan page and ask and maybe some one will sell you a box

Look at the Boss ammonium web site. Call them and see if they can get you some shipped out. It sells out as soon as they post the inventory at 10 am daily but you might get lucky.

Top Gun Kennel in Iowa

Don’t kick yourself too much, what you did is awesome!!!! Probably last better than a full mount and framed mount will fit more rooms later in life!

Got out this afternoon for a short hunt. Hit a WMA near home. Had several points and relocating but all the birds ran out into nearby private ground. I could see how it was playing out by watching tracks in the snow as my dog was working the scent. In the last patch of willows as we turned back...

I went out yesterday morning, we got about 3 inched of snow Saturday night, so I was hoping to find some birds that would hold tight. I hit a local WMA as the the first 3 spots had hunters in them. As we get started, My shorthair goes on point in some willows along a small pond with cattails on...

Over lunch at a WMA. Shooting was off should’ve had a limit but the dog work was good!

My dog sleeps in a covered kennel in the cab. When it’s below freezing I throw a blanket over the covered kennel. My truck has a topper and if I put the kennel in the bed I would use a cover plus depending on temp. I have a gsp so goldens or labs might not need the extra.

Hit a WPA after works for a short hunt. This one made a mistake. Saw one more who didn’t make a mistake. Still enjoyed the time out!

I think it’ll cut the cable, but the trouble I see is getting it under the cable that is tight around the dog. I carry a knipex version of the picture. Or you care look on a trapper website for their recommendation.

I measure quill tip to feather tip, for my own best. I understand bringing the bird to the contest site, a good taxidermist can make you a tail feather as long as you want.

It’s wetter than you may think. It was dry but several storms late July and early August restored a lot of water.

Enjoyed your report. Sounds like good times with your son!! As far as anyone who would say anything negative about your week….. screw them

I hunted over mea weekend in west central ND. It was the lowest harvest out group has had. BUT most most of the birds taken were young of the year. Cover was hard to find, found a lot of birds in what I call buck brush patch’s near harvested fields. Saw a lot of birds, most were running out...
