Done and done, though it's not letting me add a comment from my phone. And yeah I got like 5 points and it says my reputation on this post is "somewhat good".:thumbsup:

Is that what the little scale thingy is in the top right of posts?

It's in my user cp under my subscribed threads. I don't think we can see how many each other have though.

Nice! :cheers: Love the comment you left on it moe.

I was just checking out my user cp and noticed something I've never seen before "reputation points". Does anyone know what these are or how they are earned? I personally think it's a pretty cool idea, just wanted to know more about it.

Hey guys, I'm planning a trip up to NE Ca for chukar and quail around the new year and I was wondering if it would be worth to by a Nevada license and hunt some in the NW corner. I know our hatch wasn't great so I don't expect anything amazing there either but I figured maybe it would give me...

Hey guys I just wanted to get an idea of hunting opportunities for pheasants, sharpies, and huns around Ennis. It seems my brother has married into a family that has 3 working farm/ ranches along the river in Ennis. We are thinking about heading that way next years as they told us they have...

A friend of mine found these in a foreclosure they were working on and knew I would like them. As of now they are just decorations. They are Remington nitro express, long range, "kleanbore" sixes. They are old (how old I'm not sure) paper hulled shells with rolled ends and shot cards. I have...

I got a tip on a Dfg hunt at Hensley lake, which is 10mi from my house, and the possibility of some birds that got away. Knowing the spot and that there is at least a nice covey of quail there I said what the heck and loaded up the 2 pups for a quick hunt. The pups worked great and moved 2...

Happy birthday Bleu, I hope you're having a good one and the roosters are cooperating.:cheers:

I want to live in a valley, untamed and wild, where rivers and streams run freely. Their channels natural, not ditched and straightened by man and where he believes they should flow. Hers banks wild, un leveed providing the perfect place for the mighty valley oaks to reside and give mast to the...

One of my neighbors from down the way came today and thanked me for raising and releasing pheasants around the house. He said in the spring he saw a hen this spring with a brood of chicks and today 2 young roosters came walking through his pasture. There are no wild birds out here and I'm the...

An interesting article on water storage in California and under utilized methods. http://tularebasinwatershed.org/latest-news/coalition-says-california-farmland-underutilized-water-storage

I shot this rooster that I am pretty sure is the offspring of a wild he and a released roosters. They release around 1,500 roosters every year on 10,00 acres of rice land up north for us lowly detected pheasant hunters. I've hunted up there for 3 years now and I am saddened to see the sharp...

Sorry guys, I just wanted to take a moment to brag on my pup Buddy. Bud has come along way since he has come back home about 6 months ago, he's not perfect but he's getting better everyday. Here he is standing proud with his first solo rooster.

I thought I would start a post on the different types of habitat California quail use. They are quite an adaptable bird found from sea level up to 5,000 ft or so. They call everything from coastal forests to the desert, from riparian zones to oak savannah, and creosote scrub to sage flats. I'll...

Inspired by some great post on another thread I started thinking about rules I have for myself. These are mostly for quail but feel free to add any you may have. 1. Never ground sluice a bird, ever. 2. No shooting down coveys of less than 12 birds (8 for mountain quail). 3. Never have more...

Yes this truly is a rich state. Here are my two vets with their haul of 16 quail this morning. What a great morning.:cheers:

http://quailforever.org/page/1/2012caforecast.jsp They claim that the weather was "favorable" to quail reproduction this winter and spring? I find it laughable that they would claim to have any idea at all as to the status of quail anywhere in the state. Any hunter who spent any time scouting...

Here is a good read on dry aging pheasant. I always hang mine for a day before I clean them but if conditions are right this year I'm going to try this out. Bad link, hopefully I get this one right. http://honest-food.net/2012/10/20/on-hanging-pheasants-2/
