It is awesome that you connect at least once a season to share your infinite passion for dogs and pursuit of roosters.

I would buy tillable ground then cash rent to local farmers with the understanding that you control hunting rights. You may unlock their land to hunt on as they will want to continue to stay on your good graces. Not sure how it can ever pencil out but maybe the endeavor is just considered a...

Goose's Hot TIps for Hunting SD WPA During Deer Rifle Season: Wear the best camoflauge you have in your aresenol but not that gucci Sitka gear. Set up a very realistic 6x6 buck decoy about 100 yards in the WPA near a well traveled gravel road. Sit directly behind the buck decoy and wait for...

This thread was a great reminder for me to order another pair of my absolutely preferred extreme cold weather shooting glove. Hard to beat the warmth, feel and dexterity in the fingers. I keep several on hand and rotate if my hands sweat which often happens when plowing through cattails and...

Not all temps are created equally. I remember a hunt where the initial temp was -8 with zero wind and sun shining brightly. My Vizlas and their short coats did fine for short spurts. I have hunted 20 degrees that "seemed" much colder. Definitely didn't have to fight wood ticks or mosquitos.

I agree with you. Cripples would never be found. It always seems like the last few wingbeats just propel them deeper under the cover making it impossible for a sight recovery. This fall my brother-in-law spoke of how he and a couple of relatives hunted and got a limit without a dog. It...

They sure did! Great patience on your end.

BB, Two very real scenarios that make it very hard for even the very best dogs. You can rest comfortably on the effort you put in to track down those birds. We fail forward learning from each scenario and evolving. Both the hunter and dog(s) are better because of these situations. Sounds like...

I like the phrase "You do you." I am unapologetic for my dogs or for my decisions. I am comfortable with how I hunt and how my dogs hunt. People and dogs can evolve quicker by failing faster. I used to golf a lot and no matter how many balls I hit on the range I just had to get out and play...

THURSDAY: A good friend texted to let me know his hunt went terrible with several great points behind his pup only to whiff and come up empty. I added salt to the wound by stopping by his cabin and using his “brag” board to celebrate our hunt. TODAY: The pic of the single rooster was taken...

Wishing all of you and your furry ones a Merry Christmas! Willow sat still long enough to capture a Christmas Morning photo.

I can still fit into my Darn Tough socks from 8th grade. I am proud of that accomplishment!

Does she oil up her arm pit hairs too?

Nice work again! The wind never seems to stop blowing here. It is fun to still be able to access all the hot spots without fighting roads and trails shut down because of the snow. Great days still ahead!

Are we still talking pheasant hunting Goose? ;)

The look your dogs give you when they hear this especially if you miss! 😂 :

I really like making an italian sausage blend using pheasant and some ground pork. Meatballs are fantastic! It is amazing when added to gravy for biscuits and gravy. My daughter loves to add to a tuscana soup. Grinding it up into burger adds a lot of options.
