    Pheasant

    Million reasons a pheasant may have an injury. Could have hit a car, been hit by a raptor, shot while hunting, flew into a wall, wire or whatever.

    Chicken fried.

    I thought fried anything was supposed to be good.

    First Bird Dog

    Hunt that dog as often and as early as you can. Next fall is not too soon at all. The more experience the better.

    Worst things that happened while hunting ?

    My first dog went flying over a wire fence chasing a bird that was going down and got caught by one leg between the wires. She was just hanging there until we could get to her and get her untangled. Fence was 6 feet high and it wasn't easy! Got her down and she retrieved bird like nothing had...

    At what point do you retire your dog?

    My Weim hunted until she was 15. Once she was 14 i had to be careful where and for how long we hunted because her hearing and eyesight wasn't vey good, but she could still do it and wanted to. My Vizsla hunted to 12 then got bone cancer. My Braque Francais hunted until he as 14 and was fine...

    Any other states allow this besides MN ??

    You can use whatever weapon you'd like in Indiana. There are no restrictions, only recommendation. Virtually certain Illinois does not restrict weapons for upland game. Wisconsin can only hunt with weapon that shoots arrows, bolts or shells that have more than one projectile (meaning no rifle...

    Shelter Belt

    Before I did anything I would check requirements of program you intend to apply for. I had land in W in CRP for years and they would have required that we mow/cut all those trees and bushes.

    How many birds would you lose/find without a dog?

    When I was younger I would hunt without a dog, but only in fresh snow. I did not lose many, but with a dog I think we lost one this year, and I watched it run across a gigantic field until it was out of sight. I might go out in the snow if i didn't have a dog but it is so much less enjoyable.

    Crispi boots fail

    They do not. They will custom make them for you. They have an app for doing the sizing, you can have someone help you with actual paper measurements or do like i did - I went to the factory and the owner measured my feet.

    Pheasant hunting north west Wisconsin

    Anyone hunt SE or Eastern Wisconsin? I haven't done so in several years but always saw birds (private land). About the only WI hunting I have been doing is waterfowl. Right before Thanksgiving we had 6-700 geese and ducks on my 7 acre lake. about half and half. Ducks were a mish mash of...

    Crispi boots fail

    Bite the bullet. Spend twice as much and get a pair of Russell's that will last for a decade or more, then send back for resole refurbish. I have had a pair of Russell's for at least 15 years and had them resoled, not because they were worn out but because I made a mistake and bought the wrong...

    Kuiu brush or orvis tough shells

    So I just had to retire an old pair of Carhart pants with the cordura front that i used as my hunting pants for at least 10+ years. Side seam finally gave way so been looking for pants. Not easy to find in a pretty normal size! Almost every brand is unavailable. I found a pair of Dan's in the...
