    Warmest supple gloves for 15 degree weather

    I wear uninsulated deer skin gloves, whether it’s 20 below or 80 degrees. As long as I’m moving my hands stay warm in them and I can have enough feeling to grab shells, feed those shells into the gun and not fumble the safety. Most importantly for me is they offer pretty good protection against...

    Cactus Spine in a Dogs Paw

    I believe my dog has a cactus spine broken off between the pads(webbing). She was limping, so I took a look and pulled out a few spines that were visible. It’s been a couple of days and she is still three legged. I keep soaking it in epsom salts and keep adding antibiotic. It doesn’t look...

    A good season, not without its struggles

    Bob, you have hit on the two things that make hunting upland so addicting. It's not the birds that you kill, at least not for me. If that is what someone really is after they should just buy a bunch of chickens. As you and others have said, its about watching a puppy develop into a great...

    Thanks for your service Tyler. If you ever get out west, let's touch base and I'll see if I can't get you into birds.

    Heading to Eastern Oregon for an Extremely Wet Hunting Trip

    Well damn! Now I know what a bomb cyclone looks and feels like! At least the temperatures were a little warmer than they forecasted. It was raining when we arrived and it was raining when we left. Getting on any back roads was a non starter. We tried to go to a hun and chukar spot one day...

    Heading to Eastern Oregon for an Extremely Wet Hunting Trip

    I'm heading out for eastern Oregon this Wednesday. The forecast looks like snow and rain for the entire time,. I don't mind hunting in the snow but damn, 37 degrees, wind and rain pushes me to my limit. I guess the good news is that I won't be working and the only other folks out and about...

    Oddest Animal Pointed Ever

    Out Chukar hunting this last weekend and my Griffon pointed a large Bobcat. Thankfully, the Bobcat was as frightened of my dog as my dog was of the Bobcat. It could have went south but thankfully it didn’t. Drew

    Chukar

    I went out to the west desert looking for chukar and hunted hard. I only saw 15 birds and killed 4 for the day. I hope things improve as winter progresses. Drew

    A new taxidermy addition!!

    I killed a beautiful old wild rooster late in the season and wanted to add him to my California quail mount. It is nearing conclusion. So, I thought I would share.

    Pointing concerns

    I might get beat up by folks who are more interested in a beautiful point from a dog until you walk up and flush the bird yourself. However, from my perspective, while hunting a dog should only be expected to stay on point until that bird moves. During dry conditions birds just don’t hold very...
