I started walking with my dad when I was 5, I remember all the railroad tracks we would walk back when no one cared it you were doing it. By the time I was 12 and able to take a shotgun with, I was well seasoned from all the walks I went on with my dad. Shortly after that when I was 13 is when...

No I don't quit hunting MN, but it's a lot closer for my to drive to Iowa from my house than it is to drive to SW or W MN. I can get to really good spots in IA in around an hour, to get to some of the good spots I know in MN I would be looking at 2-2.5 hours. Plus I'm done by 4:30 no matter what...

Go with a final rise summit, you won't be disappointed with your purchase!

Went out this past Saturday to a new spot of IHAP we stumbled upon opening weekend. We were only able to hunt a small portion of it due to a deer hunter being on the larger section of it, but in the 40 acres or so we got to walk we easily saw 50-60 birds and a covey of Huns. We were only able to...

I have hunted a lot of IHAP over the years, I would say that 75% of the public I hunt in IA is IHAP and we always find birds. Two weeks ago we put a couple of hens up and then put up a surprise covey of huns. Needless to say my buddy missed on them and was less than happy! I will say that the...

I think the cons are just the sound that it picks up that I don't need or want to hear, like my boots going through the cover and also the directional issue I mentioned. The soundgears do a good job of cutting wind noise so I like that and I also like the amplification of sounds that are 75yds...

I will agree with your review, I don't have this specific brand as I have the soundgear's that are custom molded as well. I will agree that the sounds at 75yds + is cool to have amplified. I don't need the sound of my feet going through the brush amplified. The pair I have has 4 different...

You won't be disappointed good choice on the purchase!

I have a WW and Final Rise, both are great vests! I never thought I would retire my WW vest, but after talking to Matt the owner of Final Rise and listening to him talk about his products you can tell he is a die hard bird hunter. The whole reason he started making the vests was because he...

You would be surprised, opening morning I easily saw over 100+ birds before 9am start time. I had over a dozen roosters land within 15 yards of my truck in the parking area. If you find good habitat, the birds are there.

Yes sir, we found the bird numbers in that area weren't what we were hoping for, so we did some scouting and moved around and found good numbers within 45 mins of that area.

Just returned from NC SD, and I must say it was a pleasant surprise. We had heard reports of the bird numbers being up and well we were surprised to actually see them up like people had talked about. I will say the areas we hunted we haven't been to in probably 5-7 years, but it was a drastic...

Boss for my 20 & 28's, shoot 3" #5's out of my 20 and I shoot 3" #5's out of one of my 28's and 2 3/4 #4's out of the other. All the guns are Beretta A400's, I shoot IC early season and switch to LM or M for the remainder of the season usually around the middle of november.

This will be my 30th year hunting SD, started when I was 13 going with my dad and uncle. My dad passed 11 years ago and I will always carry on the tradition of SD trips, now I go with a couple good friends that share the same passion for upland hunting as I do.

Went out this weekend, ended up with a 5 man limit on public ground by 11am on Saturday. Sunday I had my 2 by 10:30 and the rest the group came up a couple short by 1pm. Overall we saw a ton of birds, probably around the same amount of hunters as years past. Looking to be a good season, could...

Lead is still heavier that bismuth. Choke also plays a big role in it, I shoot IC till about mid Nov maybe 1st of December and then switch to a MOD for the rest of the season. If your shooting is good and your on the bird a 28 is plenty of gun doesn't matter if your shooting lead or bismuth.

I don't understand why everyone seems to think that a 28 is too small of a gauge to take wild pheasants? They don't lack power; they pack the same amount of power as a 12/16/20 gauge! A bird doesn't know the difference between shot coming out of a 12 or 28 traveling at 1350 fps. People just...

Upland gun company is a relatively new company to the custom gun market but price point and what you get they are hard to beat. I would highly recommend attending Pheasant Fest as they have a booth there with numerous guns and fitment experts there that can talk you through everything! My buddy...

I'll be out all weekend with a couple of buddies hunting some public, we will get to our spot early saturday morning and pray that we don't have the typical 8:55 group show up. Happens every year, all you can do is put some trucks on it in strategic spots and pray they keep driving. We do the...

You are correct on the new timeline for the 20's. Buddy, I hunt with works for Browning and said the timeline for the gun's delivery is getting pushed back weekly due to parts and manufacturing. One of my good friends that I hunt with has had an order in for one from 5 different places around...
