My dad (not a big hunter) took my older brother deer hunting the first time. Back then it was shotgun only. He had bought my brother an 870 20ga. As they were walking out to the blind they were going to sit in KABOOM!. A big clod of dirt goes up next to dad's foot. Brother had forgotten which...

When the gun hits my shoulder and I am going to pull the trigger.

I hunt quail occasionally in Indiana, maybe 3 or 4 times per season. last season was the best I had ever. Worst day we put up 3 covey and best day 5 coveys, one in each place we hunted. I might shoot one bird per covey because numbers had been so sparse for decades. And we never, ever see other...

I believe they are the Diamondback 8x32. Originally bought to keep on my boat in Florida. Needed something more compact. Good small binos. Happy with them. The Athlons are nice optics for the money, but they are heavy. I wouldn't carry them hunting but they are good for bird watching and...

Mine doesn't have the dark border. Had it for almost as long (and maybe longer).

You make it sound like PBR is a bad thing.

Probably going to be less than adequate. Ducks are TOUGH! But interested to hear how it goes. I have a great duck spot in WI.

I got my current dog because the owner brought a guest to hunt who shot down into a ditch at a pheasant and killed the landowners dog. he then offered the landowner $100 as restitution. The dog owner and his guest we banned. The dog owner hunted there almost exclusively for 2 decades. His dog...

At my place in WI they are predicting up to 4" Sat/Sun. Pheasant hunting nirvana!

I had an old pair of B&L and loved them. They sat on a book case shelf and i would use to scope things out in the back. A couple years ago visited a friend in S. Indiana and inadvertently brought home an Allegheny Wood Rat. Had never heard of or seen such a thing. Basically like a chipmunk with...

I was surprised by the knock down power of my 28ga with #5 shot.

I just buff mine out with Renaissance Wax a couple times a year.

Nice Stormy Kromer!

For the 893rd time have not been chosen for the reserved pheasant hunt. :poop:

Friends of mine just hunted grouse for a week. They go every year and have a place. Said it was the worst numbers they have seen in years. I was going to go with them but went pheasant hunting in ND instead. Good choice.

95% of people don't know those names are places!

Incorrect. Possession is simply in your possession. If you have a freezer with 100 pheasants you are in violation. Going back to the multi-state issue, it is best to mark packages of birds by where and when you took them. I write on freezer bag the state and date and how many are in the bag. CO...

Got out for the opener in Iroquois Co. Hunted one ditch, and two patches of grass. One was a new spot that friend got permission to hunt this year. In total I think we flushed 80-100 birds. Good mix of cocks and hens. 8 hunters and only two dogs, one of which is a field trial dog so his owner...

You would have to ground swat them because they couldn't fly.

Lots of corn and sunflowers up near Sakawea, and up to Minot area.
