Bears meh, my dogs avoid them. Now snakes and I’m hightailing it to the car.

They can be obedience and agility titled for sure as I have done that. I guess I also have hunt tested a neutered dog. I’m sure a neutered dog can’t be shown in a confirmation ring, otherwise they can be shown in different venues.

Gosh once again I have to agree. Twenty or thirty years ago MT was as good if not better than SD. Their winters are a bit tougher so that played a factor, but they had an immense amount of CRP. That has disappeared. People still come like it was 95 and they are disappointed. The land is still...

Well are you still good?

I’m 73 and while I only hunt one dog at a time I had 4 working dogs this season. Now mostly retired I can hunt more and need more due to an extended season and injuries. When I was working and only got to hunt a couple weeks a year 2 was fine.

There are 2 things I am hardwired for. One is chasing roosters. Grouse,Huns quail and waterfowl are fun, but not roosters they are a different level. The other is catching king salmon, especially in small streams with a fly rod, no other fishing comes close. Unfortunately that has to be pretty...

Thanks

Nailed it. This from a farm boy that finished a biology degree in college.

Again back to my original question. What does the ground cover look like? How deep is the snow? Ice? Are the cat tails blown full?

So the big question is what is the ground cover like? Bare spots? Ice? Length of cold time? Chip in Greg.

Baby steps.

My opinion also. It is probably in Goose’s realm though.

Do they still make that stuff? And if they do I think Goose needs to experience it.

Standard poodles were a hunting breed at one time. I suppose there will be some crosssthat are decent bird dogs. We used to find them for free in shopping carts at the supermarket, now people pay big bucks for doodles. Nice dogs, but maybe God’s way of saying you have too much money.

You nailed it as far as my experiences. I think the only real difference is that the pointer people probably have a higher percentage of hitting since they are not out of breath when the bird gets up. Personally I like my dog working where we can make eye contact every so often, I realize that a...

Mild? I just finished driving home from the lower 48, Outside as we call it. It was 45 in Beaver Creek at the Alaskan border with Canada when I crossed.

Actually just really now looking. Spent the last couple weeks driving back to AK from the southwest. Have 4 months of mail to go over and etc. from road trip. Stopped at a few gun shops in lower 48 but nothing rang my chimes.

You’re messing me up. I had trouble sleeping thinking about that. Mott therapy needed.

Good call. Personally I only read a few of his posts and ignore most. That said every so often he says something that makes me go whiskey tango foxtrot and I spit some of my beer out. A little weird humor never hurt anyone.

My wife could care less. Her comment “you haven’t bought a gun lately”. So I intend to fix that.
