    How’s your shooting been?

    Been shooting above average, early on it was a lot of wing tipped birds and running criples. Thankfully that's lessened and I'm stoning more in the air. Dogs have been great and not lost a bird yet hunting solo. Did have a low flying straight-away I missed 3 times with autoloader on Saturday...

    Just start looking at golden retriever puppies. They love hunting and they love people.

    The flush

    Boy, I could make a really long post on hunting tv shows, trends in the demographic, subgauge shotguns, pointing flushers and flushing pointers, versatile dogs, un-versatile dogs, group-hunting grab ass, fancy lodges and pen-raised puddin' head birds, hunters that are too high strung, why birds...

    Something different…

    Make sure to tell him not to shoot any young birds, and all about the Indian shrine in Canada in case he makes a mistake.

    Bells on flushers

    Thanks for the info. I have no problem hearing a bell. I bought a gps collar only as insurance of losing a dog in the field. GPS on a flusher for actual hunting purposes is not practical. I'd be looking at a screen while the pheasant flies away.

    South Dakota Pheasant Hunting Is Changing, Or Has Changed

    Whether birds are plentiful or not I can never see a scenario of not looking for one. That sounds like more an issue with the folks you hunted with than a geographical location.

    Lets See Your Dogs..post some pic's

    Yeah he is a dandy. We got him on a piece of Iowa public land that has always had my number. I hunt it a couple times a year and could never kill a rooster there. Once or twice I whiffed easy shots. Last year my gun jammed with the only rooster in range all day. Thankfully it all came together...

    I'm just glad you stopped taking the 28 and losing all those cripples.

    Bells on flushers

    I'm mailing this one to a springer who lives in sioux falls and goes swimming all the time at lake kampeska and Lewis and Clark. Might help his owner shoot more roosters this year.

    I got to hunt a couple morning spots Monday before it was back to work later that day. Got a bird in Iowa and one in Minnesota.

    Hunting Quietly.. unfollowing hunting social media will make hunting better

    He hardly ever hunts a GPA. I bet about 2 a year. He's either onto something or he's on something.

    The flush

    I've got a buddy and he'd been hunting a great pheasant area for 25 years give or take. At the campground he used the most campsites he ever saw occupied was three, this was during opening week. The Flush did a show there, going on about how great the hunting was and how it was off the radar of...

    What's some easy ways to train your black lab to hunt closer so you have more birds flush in range?

    The flush

    One thing about the flush, those guys have a bunch of networking going on. I doubt it's burning boot leather and gasoline to find spots. It's more like jingling a few phones and sending some PM's. On top of it all they Hotspot like crazy.

    Running

    Some days I feel like if I bent the end of my barrel I might hit more birds.
