Chilly hunt last weekend!

Last weekend I pulled into a field that I hunt at least once a week, most of the time twice, two roosters flew to a neighbors field and i wasn't even stopped yet. The entrance isn't even close to where the CRP is. Them roosters keep an eye out for routines.

A lot would depend on the amount of predators in the area,type of cover and also what type of cover the bordering properties have. I released some in September and have been seeing them through the middle of December. They weren't full grown chicks but close. We have excellent cover to help...

I fry breaded breast a lot in strips or cubes in a real deep fat fryer. They are just as tender as chicken and some say better tasting. We sometimes marinate them in Frank's red hot shortly before frying. We also like the Waltons pheasant taco recipe.

I love hunting cold, the birds tend to hold better. I start walking in heavy cover and i heat up pretty fast. The hands are the hardest, but after your body is heated the hands seem to be easier to keep warm. It depends on if there is snow cover and the wind speed on the temp because of my dogs...

Thank you!

Does anyone have an Instinct watch paired with a 550 plus? I have been thinking about getting one, I hunt a lot of tall cover with 2 dogs so the watch would seem to be handy. I also like the distance & fitness details.

Our griffon has nose in the air searching unless there is a strong scent, then nose to the ground with grunts...

Honda family here, 2007 rancher that's been thru the mill with 2 boys, no problems and still runs strong. Just bought a 2015 Honda Pioneer 500. My 2 dogs even love the Pioneer!

Amen

I am ready for some winter.

Highly recommend Stubborn Ass Kennel in Winthrop if looking for a pup. Chris is great to deal with and the pups are well introduced to noise and people as well as sharp looking dogs.

Steel shot is way high along with everything thing else. If you are even lucky to find it. I'm not seeing any breaks in the future pricing or quantity either. The Corona tail is still wagging hard along with the current leadership.

I had to look up the meaning that fancy word idiocy "extremely stupid behavior " How so? You sound like one of those big silicon valley companies that wants and is censoring conservative talk.

If noticed the Bluestem coming on strong seeded in 2018 in SE Iowa.

There are a lot of variables, our experience, 3 years the numbers were excellent with 125 acres we enrolled with a dozen birds in the area. The CRP of today amazes me with the results.

I do not hurt a thing! I have my 3 month pup on a leash walking a mowed trail. Use some common sense before making your smart axx comments.

We have a griffon 3 month pup that we take to mowed trails on the edge of CRP fields towards evening. It's hit or miss, maybe 50% for us right now of flushing or I should say seeing birds. We flushed a hen and 10 chicks last weekend along a trail, the chics took full flight and all flew over 100...

I take my pups to the field, when they see or point or flush i fire dummy launcher, 22. I also pop a lot of bubble wrap during play times only 8 to 14 weeks. Happy times equals loud pops. I have trained 6 this way by the time they are 7 to 8 months.

I always wear shirt jacs even in extreme cold, then i just add a sweatshirt below. I have a Duluth right now. I pair it with a Filson strap vest.
