    The dog caught a pheasant

    I had a Lab that would catch 2 or 3 a year, almost everyone was a hen. Game farm birds I never even counted as she would do that almost every trip. This is my 1st year without her, and I carry her with me on my vest every trip I take. She never hurt a single one and would hand it to me and start...

    Low brow

    My dogs ran at 1st light for 12 days straight and when they hit that 12-15 mile mark they get put away. Most days I quit hunting when the dogs look gassed, or I start to sweat more than necessary for walking. My dogs also stay in the AC once cooled down and watered and fed. I believe that helps...

    Low brow

    Spent 13 days in MT and found birds in spots and empty fields in other spots. Working pointing dogs and only shot when they did things perfectly, which is hard with a 10 month old at times. She busted plenty of birds and I refused to shoot until she did it right. Overall, I learned my new dogs...

    Iowa report from today

    We struggled in Iowa this past weekend. The fields are super dry and tough on the dogs. Put up 30 hens one day but only a handful of roosters. Hunted hard on all public. Not much to show for all the hard work and beat up dogs. Didn't hear many shots but saw plenty of hunters. Most guys at the...

    Save me some time.

    OK my fellow hunters, after a long consideration I'm thinking of hunting Kansas because of your nice long extended season. While I'm packed with snow and 25 below in January, you lucky souls get to hunt my favorite birds. I was hoping to catch a break and get a little help on a place to...

    Lastest Report

    Well, as usual the 1st week of Nov. was reserved for my annual 1st trip to South Dakota. I was so pumped to hear the reports of higher numbers and couldn't wait to get out and see the big numbers. Now the reality, it was the worst I have seen it. I hunted areas that I had great success last...

    Keeping track of your dogs

    I just back from a great trip to SD. On the last day I hunted I was chased down by a truck on a back road, the guy asked if I saw his Pointer?? He was hunting a corn field and I was in the public land next to him. I said "No sorry I didn't see another dog" and he raced away. Then not 10...
