    Saw another 105# dog.

    My dog had Candlewoods in his pedigree on the dams side as did most of my dogs. But his top side was Riks Risky Raider. I had a dog back in the 80's out of Candlewoods Nifty Nick. Another big dog and a good one. I just didn't have the knowledge of training back then as I have now, or at...

    Saw another 105# dog.

    My old male labrador ran about 91 lbs. During season, with ribs showing, he would be in the 87 lb range. He could out hunt any dog alive in the uplands. He is the dog on my left. I could hunt from dusk to dawn 4 days straight then would have to rest him for a few days. I did duck hunt him...

    Yips

    I think much of the time, the so called "Yips" comes down to gun fit, shell choice, and choke patterns. I always felt choosing the best and most expensive ammo had its benefits. After market chokes always seem to pattern better. I get lazy sometimes when buying a new gun and put off buying...

    Yips

    3 shells and 3 birds today. Bought a new Briley Light Modified extended tube for my new 12 gauge Montefeltro and it just crushed them with Kent #6 1 3/8 ounce. Must throw a much better pattern than the stock modified and improved crio tubes. I had not missed a pheasant all year until last...

    Tripping or Falling

    Most of the holes I step in are actually coyote dens and not badger holes.

    Tripping or Falling

    59 haven't fell this year, that I remember!!!! As far as a tracking device, no thank you. I go hunting to get away from technology and people. I miss the days when there were no cell phones and the rest of the technology nonsense. No better way to go than in the field.

    Surgery, Again

    My 10 year old black female had Tightrope surgery for a torn CCL 16 months ago on August 29th. It was a long slow recovery but a great recovery. So she started hunting again this November. At 10 years old and with arthritis already set in, I didn't know how much and if she would be able to...

    Again, it is coincidence that the WIHA program and NR deer hunting began the same year? On the eastern side of the state there is much less WIHA than out west. Is this because the state targets pheasant hunters or is it because there are more outfitters and deer leases on the eastern side...

    Wasn't that long ago that you were telling us that you were losing as many as you shot.

    Much of the cattle grazed CRP that has cattle on it isn't owned by the landowner. When they open up emergency grazing and haying, farmers and ranchers start calling everyone they know with ground enrolled in CRP to get their cattle and swathers on it. There is a lady that owns 5 quarter...

    I thought there was a supreme Court decision saying they didn't. Maybe I am not remembering correctly though.

    I think the KDWP implemented WIHA with deer hunters in mind, not upland game. It just seems ironic that the WIHA program and NR deer hunting both started in 1995. Prior to 1995 you could get permission to hunt almost anywhere you asked. The WIHA was strictly for NR hunting.

    I will pay $1000 or more each year for a license if it helps improve habitat.
