Just wear 2 layers under your hunting vest, if it is above 25°. Between 15 & 25° 2 thin layers under your hunting coat. Under 15° add a neck Gator or turtle neck and maybe make the 2nd layer heavier. I am starting to get to where I am not real excited going out under 15° either.....which is...

Strength in numbers, it always seems that some KS fellas are the ones dogging PF. PF have lobbyists that try to push our conservation agendas, they can create additional incentives for landowners, they can assist landowners improve habitat. When they partner with other organizations land...

My guess is that it was likely "winged" bird. How possible is it that no one had hunted there this season?

The rooms at $50-60 a night have to be bit rough...and that would likely be an over-estmate of the quality. Are the rates less now than in the summer? I am thinking I paid $75 for the nicest place in the town that I hole-up in when shooting prairie dawgs and it is far from "nice". I am always...

Nice pics, that last one looks like you are about to explode a rooster....hope you gave him another second.

Like a basketball player in a slump....you shoot your way out of it. Well, on a positive note, the dog is getting a much longer outing as are you. I know the dog doesn't mind.

With your "handle" I should have suspected you might have some answers/ideas. Those could have some merit, when they came up with the hours.

If there is tons of cover or the night temps aren't burtual, it likely not an issue. When it is late in season, most cover is snowed in and temps are single digits or below, it seems unnessacary to drive them out of the roosts late in the day.

You must be mistaken, there are no pheasants in Iowa. I wonder what the rational is for the 10:00 opening...SD guys? I am sure the is one.

We used to stop at the Mitchell store on our prairie dawg shoots, but haven't stopped for well over a decade now.

Once you get on a heater and thinking you are pretty good at this, that is when this happens to me.

Here is why I don't like (agree with) hunting "golden hour", deep in season. The birds, all the birds you kick-up, need to find a good roosting place as the darkness is setting in. Try hunting in the mornings during extreme cold weather, if you must hunt them in those conditions.

I think the bulk of ours has 5 or 6 years remaining, hoping that a "conservation " attitude is around for that administration.

Nice. A pump gun, adjustable choke, dog whistle, no electronics, traditional vest, blue jeans....now how did you happen to shoot a limit like that! Well done my man! I may have been wearing those same work gloves Sunday. What state are you in?

Good review, follow-up as you go thru the season with these. I have hearing loss and tinnitus, so I will be fighting things a bit differently.

Yes, but only on one leg and not as big as yours.....I hear that a lot. One of birds in my mount as that.

Well, with the amount of birds harvested, maybe it would work better not having to be "busting" thru waist high cover for three hours and then trying to get the gun up and shoot the birds. I would like walking waist high cover, you could keep much better sight on the dog and not need a bell to...

You need to load the boys up and bring them on a field trip down here, I have a great location for blockers that needs very little walking to get to.

One of my birds today had earlier in season, taken a pellet in the upper breast, it looked to be healing decently. Tough birds, that part of the breast has to power the wings.

Below what I would like. My new GSP just isn't retrieving. He finds them and points them, but I better get a good mark on them. My cousin had a new 1 year old lab, second time pheasant hunting, it is learning what to do.
