Hey all, good day today. Went out solo after Mass, to an area about a mile from the house. Saw quite a few birds, hens held real well. Roosters were a bit wild, but Addie held the ones I got. Was lucky to get a double also. The one bird that's wet.....is a another story. To long to tell...

Hi, thanks for the kind words! The vest is for protection and also for keeping track of her. Both Raina and Addie like to bust brush, they're not afraid to get into the thick stuff. Trying to avoid injuries, which they have gotten over the years. Thanks again! Greg

Hey all, had a good day. Saw a lot of birds, but were they ever spooky! Sloppy out there. The 8" of snow we got last week is melting and not drying out. Addie did very well! Great points and retrieves. Used my 12b Purdey today Best Regards Greg

Very nice! Congratulations!

Hey all, good day today. Was able to limit in 45min. Saw a lot of birds. My 10 year old GSP, Raina did great today. Seeing her in the field, you'd think she was 5 or 6. Used my 16ga Garbi 100 Best, Greg Quote

Hey all, went out solo today. Saw plenty of birds, but flushed wild. Was lucky to get this one. It was, hot, dry and no wind......perfect for the dog to scent!!! The birds heard you coming and that was it. A couple did hold, but flushed on the other side of the cover, couldn't get a shot...

Hey all, my son Jim and I went out for a couple hours today. Didn't do too bad. Always great to hunt with my son. Raina did well, nice stanch points. Jim used his 12ga V. S. 3EC and I used my 12b Cogswell and Harrison Konor Best, Greg

Today, wind was terrible, 25mph. Saw plenty of birds...all spooky, only the hens held. Was able to get one. Addie did well considering the wind Used my 12b F.A. Anderson Best Greg

Hey all, thought some of you might be interested in posting pictures of your hunts, guns and dogs. Guess I'll start it off Last Saturday, only was able to get out for a short time. Used my Uggie 16ga 1030

Hey Paul, possibly. Really don't know. Could be the first hatch failed and they re-nested. We had a late spring after a very hard winter. Best, Greg

Hey all, had a good opener. I was able to limit, son Jim dropped a leg on one that glided deep into the cattails. Saw a lot of hens. A lot of the Roosters were just changing color. The birds were a bit wild, even the young ones. Addie really did well, very happy with that pooch. Weather...

Hey all, my son Jim and I went out after Mass today. We each managed one. Didn't see a lot. A couple areas we hunt still have standing crops by the good prairie areas, so....guess where hanging out. Took Addie out, she did very well. Anyway I used my 16b Charles Boswell Best Regards Greg

Hey all, opening day today. Rained in the morning so we hunted after it quit. I managed a limit, son Jim did not fair well. Our 11 year old GSP Raina did very well. You'd never know that she's that old Didn't see a lot, but they are a funny bird. We'll see what tomorrow brings. Used my...

Saw that today. To be honest, I was a bit surprised. The winter we had was one of the worst we've had in 20 some years. We've had a decent spring, short as it was. A tad hot, but with a good amount of rain. The brood counts will give a better picture of what the season may bring. Thank...

Hi, you can find all these birds pretty much all over the state. The very eastern part will be tough. Anywhere west of the Missouri River, both north and south of I 94 will be your best bet. Huns are pretty much a bonus bird when hunting pheasants. Just remember that the cover/territory...

Hey all, well after a looong winter, spring has sprung. We got a lot of rain the last 2 days and that with the snow melt (BTW, there is still some snow hanging around in the shelter belts and in the hills) should have enough ground moisture to get the prairie grasses growing for nestling...

Sorry to get back to you so late. My apologies. Anyway, I live south of Mandan in a small farm town off ND Hwy 6. Still have snow in the yard and off the Hwy where it drifted in heavy. G&F did their aerial survey for deer. Down about 50% in the area where we hunt in unit 2J2. Not good...

Got more snow and wind last week. Missed the record by a 1/2". Had some drifts by the house, we got more snow by us than Bismarck. So....guess we hit the record. Temps still way below normal. Who know when it will warm up here! Stay well my friends! Greg

Well, another blizzard tomorrow and the day after. Heavy snow and very high winds = winter kill and more damage to the wildlife population. The drifting will be the big issue. We had a nice melt so the birds could get at some food, but with this one it's going to be tough for a few days. The...

Hey all, just thought I'd give you my impression of this winter. It can be summed up in two words: IT SUCKS! We're getting hit hard this year, so far the third worst winter in recent memory. We're only about 8 inches away from breaking the 96/97 winter. And guess what? We'll more than...
