    Hunting accident in Harvey County

    Sometimes my safety stays on even after I shoulder it and am trying in vain to pull the trigger on a bird...

    Looking for a New O/U

    I switched back to 12 ga guns for pheasants this season and went with a Citori 725 Feather Superlight. I don't weigh guns, but its light. I'm not recoil sensitive, but I've shot probably 50 rounds at pheasants this season and haven't noticed anything stiffer than when I hunted with 16s or 20s...

    Report from NW

    I hunted very briefly in northwest a couple weeks ago, probably 5 hours total. I put up 6 pheasants and one lone chicken on a combo of very good private and one WIHA tract, behind a very experienced lab and a coming on spaniel. The private was pretty discouraging, but it was also a very small...

    Pressure?

    WIHA should be greatly reduced or eliminated. Residents should get a couple weekends of access before non-Residents. Guiding/access to wildlife in exchange for money should be tightly regulated and the state should make a lot of money on it to fund wildlife conservation. iWIHA should be...

    Pressure?

    The worst decision for resident hunting in Kansas came when Kansans decided not to pay for their wildlife department.

    Rain

    I forgot about Kansas opener. Glad you guys are seeing some success. Somehow I got the ducks to work in 60 degree weather, instead, but the opener slipped my mind entirely.

    Roadside Survey is Out

    It doesn't take me much longer to get to Southeast SoDak or SW Minnesota than it does to Western KS. I remember when I first started hunting up that way kind of scoffing at the pheasant hunting in SW Minnesota, but no longer...

    Roadside Survey is Out

    Corn and beans by Hoxie…no wonder there’s no birds.

    Forecast

    I've given up on any hope of it changing (for the better) in my lifetime. We might get lucky with a favorable weather cycle, and have some decent years, but the good days are not likely to ever come back. Pheasants don't really belong here (though neither do cows, I suppose, or all the cow food...

    Forecast

    My experience is that the good pockets have gotten smaller and, much more dramatically, that the voids between the good pockets have collapsed from putting up 25 birds in a day, to zero. When I started pheasant hunting I did 95% of my pheasant hunting in a triangle between Abilene, Beloit and...

    Forecast

    I always found the "pockets of birds" description to be very, very accurate in Kansas.

    Dogs Change, I Guess

    Yes. I would not let any dog that was reactive or growled at people or other dogs on the bed. There’s nothing wrong with the dog, it just needs to understand its place, and one of the easiest, most effective, and least confrontational ways dogs understand hierarchy is by hierarchies of place and...

    Don't allow that dog to sleep in your bed ever again.

    Pump gun

    I can’t believe people think 870s are heavy.

    Pump gun

    I hunted with pump guns for decades and never had any problem with debris in the chamber, often hunting in head high cattails and prairie.
