    NW North Dakota info?

    Birds were the same as last year-which is good. The cover was definitely impacted by the drought though. Alot of what was left , got mowed/baled too(including cattails). Could be used to your advantage....

    Texas public land opening weekend

    REAL South Dakota 2021 review.

    I’ll agree with Munster that nowadays we have more tools in order to “arrive with a plan” but at the end of the day, it’s the boot leather to the soil and all the decisions you make while you’re here that puts birds in the bag. I really relish the thought and act of walking with a shotgun in...

    Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks….not tourism

    I’m glad it’s been removed! With tourism under the same umbrella, I feel that the priority and focus of the department would undoubtly be compromised. Not that it can’t happen but with that kind of “branding” - it would provide more flexibility to other priorities and things to focus on.

    Not much good news in the quail forever state forecast

    Quail do really well with late nesting. I’ve seen them drop a clutch or even 2 after a bad start during nesting season…. Of course it helps to have good carryover from the year before…. 🤞

    transporting a pheasant

    As John and A5 mentioned, I don't clean my birds when I'm hunting with the exception of hitting one hard in the guts(then I'll gut them on the spot). I do keep a refrigerator in my garage that I will age my birds in for a week before cleaning. They are much easier to clean and definitely more...

    Short hunt report

    If it didn’t have grasshoppers this early season- it wasn’t worth walking. I’m sure that’ll change as it gets colder and their diet changes.

    Uninsulated Danner Pronghorns For Early Season...

    I've been trying to locate a pair of irish setter wingshooters to try on near me before pulling the trigger. It seems that the irish setter stuff is really hard to find in stock, especially in my size -maybe covid related ?? Anyway, its down to danner, IS wingshooters, or crispi(i tried them on...
