Was going through some shells the other day and I found some 2 3/4 inch high brass 6 mags. With the letters "Wards" on them. As in Montgomery Wards. Those are probably from the mid 70's or earlier. Anyone remember them?

Finall connected on those little feathery rockets today. Took OB and Milo. All credit goes to the older Milo for the finds but only because he happened to be the one on the ground at the time. Although, OB is a real pleasure to hunt behind even if he points tweety birds and mice (at least I...

My weekend starts tomorrow in which I will be in my layout boat attempting to shoot ducks with my overly hyperactive 6 year old lab. Saturday I am going to go over west of the house with the pointers and see if they will point some quail or maybe a pheasant. Actually it will probably just be...

With the ever changing farming practices which brings on a continued loss in habitat, CRP going away, and the past few years of drought do you think that KS pheasants populations will ever rebound to what they once were? I look at Iowa as an example (and I could be dead wrong) but they had...

Took both of the youngsters out today. Put them both on the ground at the same time. Could have been a mistake but it turned out just fine. First spot was one of my old stand by's. 30 minutes into the hunt OB goes on point. About 6 quail get up and scatter. Now here is where my problem...

I'm already thinking about the weekend! This is horrible. Friday will be a duck hunt. Saturday I'll stop and get two more heated water bowls on the way out to quail hunt with the wife and pointers. Sunday I may stick around closer to home and do a combo phez/quail hunt with one pointer...

For those of you who vaccinate your own dogs where are you ordering your vaccines from?

I feel bad for my dogs because I haven't had any of them out for 2 weeks! Been busy pouring concrete around here. Replaced my apron in front of the house then added on to my kennel. After the rain it's a total muddy mess around here now. I let a couple of my dogs out to run while I clean...

I have found a place online that will sell Pro-Plan for 38.50 a bag with free shipping. Min of 24 bags tho. Wondering if there are 4 local to my area that would be interested in splitting a pallet?

Only been west one time on opening weekend and that was when I was a kid. My dad delivered one of his labs to a guy from Colorado and we met him in Colby and hunted with him for what was supposed to be all weekend. I was about 12 or 13 at the time. My lab was a littermate to the one we...

I was PC hunting today and one of my 1 year old EP's locked up just hard in the middle of the field. There was a pretty good north wind blowing and we were hunting into the wind. I never flushed anything. Do you suppose the bird could have been a ways away? How far away have your dogs...

Looks like OB is on a hill but he's not. Thats just how he was when he went on point. Bob found him one too! They did good for their first time on quail. Held their points for as long as I cared to watch and didn't move until the bird was flushed. Maybe next spring I'll work on...

Enough talk about hunting. Do you guys think this is a hunting forum or something? 3-0! I think as the season progresses they will only get better obviously, and work out some of the bugs. Exciting times to be a Chiefs fan I believe. :thumbsup: Watched the special on Derrick Thomas...

Wouldn't you know it the first day of my 5 day vacation its going to rain. Not going to complain about it anymore than that though because we sure need it! As long as it's not a down pour and there is not lightening I'm going!

I noticed the upland forecast for NE is on the website. Doesn't sound to promising. Quail numbers said to be better. I was really only interested in the grouse forecast and it really doesn't give much information on them.

I was looking at Gundog magazine and they had plans for a small jonny house made from a 55 gallon plastic barrel. Wondering if anyone has ever done this. I'm thinking I may try one and if it works good maybe make a couple of them to place around the acerage. Looked like a neat idea.

Due to being a cheap azz and having some scrap wood around the ranch I have decided to go back old school and build myself a 2-dog, dog box for my truck. Wondering what size each side should be to accomodate a couple of 50lb Pointers? Clarification-one dog in each side. The last one I...

I'm ready to get these pups out on their first hunt of the year!! Anyone else ready for hunting season?

Bob's poor tail. He is my English Shorthair I guess...............

OB (Orange Boy) was locking up as soon as he hit scent. No creep, no nothing. Bob (liver and white) wanted to sight point until he figured out a nose full of stinky pigeon was better than an eyeful. He eventually locked up and first scent. OB is turning to his name in the field, has a...
