    How many shells?

    Nope, just honest. :)

    PF Goes Pen-Reared....Again!!

    I'm looking for the clown emoji, but can't find it. It is frustrating to see PF time and time again fall back upon pen raised pheasants, whether it be for their magazine, calendars, or their youth hunts. Nothing like teaching kids that hunting is about killing and shouldn't be that hard.

    Favorite steel

    Even if a guy shoots at a lot of birds, circumstances will often dictate the willingness or lack thereof to take shots. If it's been a couple hours of hunting and I haven't pulled the trigger, I'm much more likely to take a long shot than if I've got a couple birds in the vest. Likewise, I'll...

    2024 National Pheasant Fest in Sioux Fall, who is going?

    I went on Saturday afternoon with my dad, met up with A5. It was an alright time. Some grabass, but that was expected. Had a nice discussion with the guys from Fish and Wildlife. Two of the WPA's I hunted this fall had the grassland dug up for farming and that's exactly what is going to...

    Why did you go with the breed that you did and have you been satisfied?

    My dad switched to a pointer a few years back. For guys that don't move so well, whether old or unathletic, a pointer is a good fit.

    2024 National Pheasant Fest in Sioux Fall, who is going?

    To be honest, the last time I was at Pheasant Fest, I didn't find much that had value to my style of pheasant hunting. I leave Sage at home sometimes when I go duck hunting. She isn't happy, but she gets over pretty quick, at least according to my wife, who would most certainly let me know if...

    2024 National Pheasant Fest in Sioux Fall, who is going?

    She is. The litter is expected toward the end of April. Not sure how much they'll actually hunt together, but I'll play that by ear.

    2024 National Pheasant Fest in Sioux Fall, who is going?

    I'll be there on Saturday morning, probably around 10am to lunch or so. The breeder I'm getting a pup from will be there, so I wanted to talk to him for a few, and wander around.

    New Law

    States have a right to establish rules on non-residents. Is the 5-day license that SD has set up dumb? Sure. But, it does a fair job of allowing non-residents to hunt without overstepping on the guys who live here, pay taxes here year round, raise families here, and don't want to see a ton of...

    Tools?

    Broken femur, fell in a drainage ditch, no phone. Got close to his vehicle, but there was another drainage ditch that he couldn't cross. I don't carry my phone with me, but do have it in the truck, and my wife can find that. Still, a good reminder for people who are maybe hunting in an...

    2023/2024 Pheasant Hunting Videos

    Really good stuff, Bob!! That's the kind of pheasant hunting content I could watch non-stop. Skye was a genuine rockstar. That lighter grass is a bear to hunt, but the pheasants are in there and it takes skill and effort to get them in the vest. And you shot a Kansas Blue Back!! :)

    Nicely done, you two. That even looked a little bit like a late season pheasant hunt, of which we were robbed this past season, but alas, you guys figured it out anyway.

    Why I love labs

    I love labs because there is never any question of them being smarter than me. It is a fact I take solace in. Sure, they're more athletic, have a better sense of smell and are indeed more skilled at hunting, but raw intelligence? Nope. Not the dog that is mystified when I disappear under a...

    How many shells?

    13 to 17. Three in the gun and five to seven in each pocket, right and left sides respectively. I've had to borrow shells twice in the past decade, both times were on a group hunt with the local Pro Pheasants group.

    Thanks, Goose. And to think I almost stayed home because it was so cold that day. Bless Sage and her annoying case of cabin fever, otherwise, it might never have happened.

    I'm typically able to be a lot more focused when its just Sage and me. That flush turned up at the right place at the right time!

    2023/2024 Pheasant Hunting Videos

    This is easily the most depressing time of year. Sage looks at me with disgust every time I'm sitting on the couch and not taking her out. Fortunately, I've got some footage to keep my spirits up until October.
