    Small game knives

    I have a custom Bark River knife that is a bit overkill, but it is an amazing blade. It would also work well in an emergency situation. It is their Classic Drop Point design made out of S30VN steel. It holds an edge really well. I also have a hand made knife that is a classic trout/bird knife...

    RE: Do you use eyeshileds on Dogs for upland hunting out west

    Whisky loves wearing his. I think he is really comfortable with them on and realizes the amount of protection they provide while he is blasting through all sorts of cover.

    RE: Do you use eyeshileds on Dogs for upland hunting out west

    I was ok with removing the seed from under the third eyelid, but the scratch was what I couldn't deal with. I too keep a bottle of saline rinse. I also now have a couple of different eye specific antibiotic drops from the vet. I have a lot higher level of comfort knowing he is protected from all...

    RE: Do you use eyeshileds on Dogs for upland hunting out west

    He loves wearing them. I just followed the guidance in the packaging and he took to them in a couple of days. I also have mirrored and smoked lenses for summer on the boat! He has made water retrieves with them and no impact at all on his performance. They are running a 20% sitewide sale right...

    RE: Do you use eyeshileds on Dogs for upland hunting out west

    My boy doesn't hit the field without his RexSpecs! I got them for him after playing "find the seed under the eyelid" in one eye and then a scratched cornea in the other.

    Moving to Minneapolis area help

    My oldest son and his family are moving to the Minneapolis area. They are a late 30s early 40s aged couple with two toddlers. Where are some good places for them to look for a house? Are there any places to absolutely stay away from? One of them just took a job with Polaris if that helps for an...

    Kent upland sale rodgers sporting goods

    I like bismuth for my older guns. The steel shot and tungsten varieties just aren’t usable.

    Ear yeast infection.

    I use the same TrizEDTA for his ears in the summer after he has been swimming off the boat. It’s good stuff!

    Hand Signals

    I use hand and whistle signals. He also wears an ecollar with GPS if he is in the brush and I can't see him, etc.

    Getting ready for the season

    This is an interesting time of year for me. I am still hard at boating and scuba diving, but the back of my mind is pushing towards getting ready for bird season. This is when I start looking towards the focused conditioning program for the pup and looking at gear for what I might need to...

    Do you carry a dog first aid kit while hunting and if so what should be in one

    This is just to get by long enough to get the pup back to the truck where the real gear is. I am looking this season at possible additions to this kit, but don't know what I'd add due to weight.

    Do you carry a dog first aid kit while hunting and if so what should be in one

    Don't forget to add some sort of ear and eye wash. Having a new bottle of TrizULTRA+Keto is also a high priority item for my kit. My vet comes from a line of bird hunters and provides me with all sorts of pain meds, anti-inflammatories, antibiotics, etc. for my med kits. She also gives me fresh...

    Matt, what dog images do you have to use or can you use a picture to create the image on the leather piece? These look incredible!

    Kuiu vest

    I am running the older Filson Pro Guide vest and have not run into another type I'd drop a few $$$ to switch. It has a good carrying capacity, but the pockets are not a perfect design as they collect weeds and junk. It is a bit heavier being made of their waxed fabric. It holds a good number of...

    Does a Garmin watch paired with your Garmin Controler provide value when hunting

    I'll just say "amen" to having a Garmin Instinct and the Pro 550+ collar.
