Hunted a few private pieces, one large tract of CRP and two dredge ditches with lighter grass. We put up our 8 man limit by 11:30, probably should have been done on the 2nd piece but misses happen. Saw more birds than expected, which is a great problem to have. Good luck everyone!

The amount of learning I've had in one gun season, with a puppy, is astounding. From watching her try to find scent, getting on old scent, finding fresh scent, and all the different signs she makes on each while searching is crazy. She has had a few "false" points, locked on tight, but no bird...

Hey Ranger I've never owned a hunting dog before, let alone a GWP. My wife had them growing up, and I fell in love with their last GWP they had, and add in the hunting ability, and I was sold. So, that also means that I am 100% new to training a hunting dog and as of right now, I tried to put...

While I didn't get to hunt Saturday or Sunday of the final weekend, I did make it out of the office around 2p on Friday the 8th for a quick walk with a buddy and my new pup, Tess. Honestly, our strategy was poor, I picked a big piece that I knew had birds in it, but with the crunchy snow, they...

Hunted mostly Kossuth County and a private piece in Winnebago county. 8 guys, 6 roosters and 2 lost birds on day 1, quit at 1:30. Sunday was a struggle, had a really nice looking piece of private ground with no dog, only put up 3 birds, 2 hens and a rooster we hit. It landed just in the tilled...

How do you set up your yard with the Fi collar? Reading through the website, and it looks awesome, but it doesn't really tell me about boundaries and how they are set? Pup will have 6 acres to roam on a daily basis...

I'll take a look at the Fi collar! Thanks!

Yeah, the Alpha 100. Just was reading the description on Cabelas, and it said you could set boundaries on the maps. It wouldn't automatically give the dog a correction when he got close, but I think it'd notify the controller so you could give them a correction. I'll have to see if I can find...

Hey everyone Just dropping by the introductions thread to say Hi. I didn't think I ever registered here, but it says I have. Anyways, I hunt in north central Iowa, not as much as I'd like. Have a new pup coming in a few weeks, so while she won't make it out for the 2020 season, she should see...

I saw the post below about dog collar options, but it appeared most of the comments were 4 years old. I've got a new wirehair coming to the family, and am just beginning to research collars. I'm leaning towards the Garmin 100 Track and Train system, but I'm curious, it almost looks like I'd be...
