Or goose(master) mud!

You’re entitled to your opinion, for sure…a good dog or two, a decent amount of private ground, and 60 outings? Hard not to kill North of 100 birds…especially in a year that was devoid of snow, at least where I hunt in SD…there was a crust last trip, 9-13 days ago, but not enough to make walking...

IM…interesting…I need to at least go LM if I go back out to SD…IC works well for me, but I’m gonna go LM if I go, maybe even M….👍👍

He hunted 60 days, full or part…amazing how fast you can kill 3 birds, especially later in the day…

I’d be curious as to your experience with cripples, choke, shot size…I assume you’re shooting mostly lead? Maybe you’ve offered this info in prior threads, sorry if that’s the case…you’re a treasure-trove of data!

Each rack is situated in a rectangular cardboard box, with a handle…enclosed in foil, sauced one of three ways…they’re hot, I put them in a cooler and they’re still hot hours later, especially if there are 3,4, 5 racks in there. Many people get 2 or more meals per rack…I don’t! 🥳❤️

I live 420 miles away…think if you lived close by, and could hunt 3,4,5 days per week, even for a few hours…hard not shooting a lot of birds….I’m planning my last trip as we speak…may be a warm up in about 10 days…I’ve got some landowners to properly thank for the last outing…baby back ribs from...

She sells elk antlers for dogs to chew on? I spoke with her a few months ago…👍

It’s about days afield…and hunting in productive areas…and, in SD, where party hunting is legal, #’s can add up pretty quickly…most years, across the whole SD season, I suspect I average 3.75, 4, 4.5, per day; most years I’m over 30 days…this year, I’ll probably be in the middle or high 20’s...

That would be the ticket! 😆😆 I actually try to operate incognito, appear like a lost librarian or soccer dad that followed the phone’s directions too literally…

What’s the mud total? Exact, not some range….😆

I took the 2nd seat out of my Sienna, and have the 3rd seat flush with the floor…4 crates sit atop a 4’ x 8’ piece of plywood…easy access for dog loading, gear, etc. poor clearance, but other than that, best rig I’ve had. I’ve put 178k on it in 6 years…feels like new! Shocks and struts next...

I’d take 6 bags…26/16

I hunt out of a Toyota Sienna early, for sharpies and huns, then switch to my Silverado. I make about 8 trips, one or two less than before since I’m retired, so I just stay for 7-9 days, depending. My trips average about 1300 miles, so I’m 10k+ per season. Overall I put on about 30k per...

I thought you were gonna say you covered dog mud with goose mud! 🦸

Most times after a trip I can’t sleep…keep thinking about flushes, shots, hits, misses, dog work, etc…mind going a million miles per hour! 🥳🍺

I’m gonna search for strange mud if I make it back to SD….much could be learned, like gathering samples from Mars…what are we actually dealing with here?

If this was referring to LOP, and hadn’t been spelled out fully, I’d wonder if this was meant for Goose—length of poop.

I struggle with dog control all the time…especially light cover.

Congrats on the season! You got out a lot, that’s awesome! The more you’re out there, the more birds you’re gonna contact, plain and simple. 👍🍻👏🏻
