But if that guys blind how does he know he put up a thousand birds? 😂

Yeah he says it feels faster to him but I'm sure if he used bottom first all these years he'd say loading bottom barrel first is faster haha it's just what he's used to and comfortable with. Yeah I've seen the same with the less recoil which is why I'm using bottom barrel first but i agree it's...

Yeah my dad's reasoning behind top first is that he believes it's easier to load a 3rd shell for a quick follow up in the top barrel versus bottom barrel.

Since I grabbed my first over/under shotgun, I'm curious which barrel you guys shoot first. My dad's been shooting an over/under for over 30 years and has always used his top barrel first. I'll probably use my under first after reading various things online but it got me curious what the folks...

I wish mine did haha I turned mine into a gas shovel basically to do my driveway. I got about 2 inches of water below about 4 inches of snow so even my gas dual stage blower isn't cutting it.

I think anyone here bashing on or saying a NAVHDA Prize 1 Utility Test or Versatile Champion dog can't compete with their black lab they got from farmer Bill is just really showing either a willful ignorance or has never seen what either of those tests involve. Obviously there are fantastic...

It could have held off a few more days for me. I'm headed to east central Iowa tomorrow morning and back Sunday. I feel like I can complain some 😂

I like his videos alot. He does voice overs in a nice way that doesn't distract from what's going on and doesn't overdo them either.

Yeah it just depends on the situation. I've let mine go before but I've been burned enough times that I stay close and my dogs have learned 40-60 yards is max range for how I like to hunt. My dogs also are multi species dogs, hunting Ruffed and sharp tailed grouse, woodcock, prairie chickens...

How many did you? Haha you're talking a big game, let's see some pics or videos.

Id really like to know where he (and some others) are getting the sentiment that running pointers is an easy, lazy hunt. Just because we don't have to chase the dog all over the field because a bird can jump at any moment with a flusher? I guess being able to let my dog cover ground is lazy...

That's a cute picture of yourself

Same here. I've been on trips with people where I don't pull the trigger for a day or 2 while others are hammering away. Just the way things work sometimes. As long as it's a fun trip, the dogs have a good time and a couple birds end up in someone's game bag, I'm happy.

A member here has a post about a 16 gauge Citori for sale earlier today

Yeah Im with you on that. I deer hunt about 30 miles due west of Duluth. I see almost as many wolves on my trail cams as I do deer. I at least saw a nice buck last year. Better than some years where I sit for 6 or 7 days and don't even see a tail.

I picked up a Browning Citori 725 Feather in 20 gauge. Id been eyeing adding a Citori to my collection for awhile now and after getting a chance to put my hands on one at Pheasant Fest a few weeks ago, I just had to have it haha Timing and $$ wise I think I did pretty good. Reeds in Walker MN...

Yeah I cleaned it up yesterday and oiled it and greased the hinge pins and what not with some white lithium grease I had. I'll probably pick up something clear for next time. Didn't like all the white haze it left after it dried haha it'd work fine, but I'll get something clear. Just wanted to...

Versatile breeds are breeds that point, retrieve on land and water and for most breeds also blood track. The history of most versatile breeds stems from commoners in Europe that needed a dog that could do everything. Compared to royalty that had one dog for each specific purpose. There's a...

Oh there's plenty of running behind a pointer haha them wild birds don't hold for those gorgeous points like you see in magazines.

This is the first time I think I've ever seen someone claim a versatile dog was too slow haha
