There’s a high fence whitetail ranch north of Fedora…go up there, ask around for the exact location.. fun to see the huge bucks, and good bird area…walk some ditches there…Sodak Prairie Acres. Also, if the gang needs a different diversion, day or nite, check out the world famous corn palace in...

U can’t hunt til 10 am, after breakfast drive gravel roads in areas that have public hunting areas…WPA, GPA, CREP, etc…look for birds…it may snow soon, birds easy to spot…if you see them around, focus on those areas…they’ll hide in the cover and loaf when not out feeding…adjust your...

If no dog, hunt good looking ditches…next to picked cornfields…with cover, grass, etc, that the birds can hide in…

Do you have a dog???? Pretty important!

Good cafe in Montrose I’m told..really good. Check out public areas near Fulton, Salem, Spencer…south of I-90 as well, like Freeman…good bird #’s there, too…north of Mitchell is good…Letcher, Forestburg, Artesian, Fedora, Roswell….good cafe in Letcher…

You never know til you try! Sounds plausible. I’d base in a town like Mitchell, closer for you..,there’s a bass pro there, too. Lots of public land within 50 miles, any direction…good bird #’s…find a smallish town with public ground nearby that has a cafe…be there at 7:30 am and have...

Strictly who the importer was…I have an S 56E, it’s a BL4…Garcia was the importer of the S guns…the latter may have been sold in Europe, and the BL’s US items…

They made those mid 50’s-mid 60’s, when the BL series commenced…

I love the BL series guns…very highly regarded…I have a BL 4 20 gauge…super solid, super sweet!

Deer opener yesterday, not many bird hunters despite such nice weather…

When I’ve espoused the merits of shooting at a hit bird a 2nd time, I’ve always stated only if it’s safe to do so, and obviously, if it’s even feasible to do so…some birds hit the deck too quickly…and I don’t believe I’ve attached distances to that idea…but it’d be more likely on farther, higher...

Saturday, Nov 22…calm wind, a bit from the NW…high 20’s early, high 30’s at 10 am, mid 50’s midday, sunny…birds seem bunched, but they’re really not, there’s just a lot of birds…good hunt, despite sub-par scenting conditions and not great shooting by several of us plus gun issues for one of the...

Goose is the Grand Poobah of the Pheasant Rump Nakota Nation…no doubt about it. I want a hat and a bumper sticker…😎

Beautiful hoarfrost this morning, 28 degrees, barely a south wind, foggy conditions…birds in cover, good conditions for dogs. Got sunny by late am…close to 50 mid afternoon. Birds bunched up, some spectacular bird congregations. Group did well again, not too many misses, I probably had the...

I am pretty sure the state doesn’t release birds; they’d have to disclose that if so. I believe they recognize $ is better spent on habitat, which is a perpetual source of pheasants

Watch 2021 episode 5…that’s reality

U pay extra for that, usually…

I bought an S 56E 20 gauge made in 1967 3 years ago…same as the BL 4….sweet gun. Loaned it to a buddy who had it in ND, still has it..,taking it to SD over thxgiving…,I’ve shot some birds with it, still getting to know the gun

Taking everything into account? Yeah, one of my dogs costs me birds, it’s really me that’s the problem, but it’s complicated…she’s also my best dog…

Double checked, 👍😁
