    That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

A neighbor who was a policeman had a archery tag and was happy to tag the nice fat button buck. My dad insisted the officer check for a arrow...

    Let's talk cattail strategies

    Even though i believe my dogs stand a very good chances of retrieving anything I knock down I do limit my shot choices in the sloughs. Small cattail patch or phragmites i try and have the dogs work it while I stay outside. If the dogs stop moving I know they are on point so I try and position...

    2 day walk in trip

    You should know most of the time the farmer/rancher owns the land to the middle of the road so be careful about that argument. That is the #1 pet peeve of landowners and ditch hunting.

    GSP questions

    There are plenty of 40 pound female gsp. If that is you want just look /talk to different breeders and they will point you that way. They may bad mouth those dogs but if health clearances are good don't worry about other's opinions.
