Brent, you are a lucky man living where you do and knowing the lay of the land. Hope the rest of the season is good to you!

Sorry guys I wasn't getting any email reminders so I had to go back in and approve my email again. I will spend done time catching up on everybody! Thanks for wondering and caring. By the way I am still loving my Goldens and raising puppies.

This could become the start of something epic. One on one bird hunting challenges. Oh wait I think they already have this competition it is called bird dog challenge. Lots of rules against running, how many shots you take, delivery to hand, time limits, etc. I think the UPH version would be more...

Hey guys, I have puppies on the ground. I have two litters and lots of choices if someone is interested in a field bred Golden. They are great companions as pets, will hunt all day with you and are nice to look at. I have sold quite a few to forum members and everybody has been very pleased with...

Interesting. I usually shoot something around 1500 fps but I don't have an answer why!?

Jonny B if you are looking to get one of my pups from the upcoming litters I will tell you this, go after the hardest charging dog in the litter if you are looking for prey drive. Forget about the sex of the dog. Sometimes it is a male, sometimes it is a female. Just depends on the litter. I...

I watched a lot of my buddies kill a bird with the third shot. I always asked why did you pull the trigger the first two times? They said they were afraid I or someone else would shoot the bird first. I decided then to start shooting an O/U. I only had two shells it forced me to take my time on...

I use the vibrate button and it usually turns them. If not I nick and get their attention. If they are running hard after a bird I have to use the continuous button to get them within range. The older they get and the later into the season, the less I need the collar.

I could be a guest shooter for one of you two guys new outdoors show! But I do hunt with Golden's so hopefully you guys will cut me some slack.

When I found mine they had two of them. One was more shiny and the wood was not what I was lookiing for. The other one was dark more of a matte finish and exactly what I wanted. I love it but I use it alot. Spent a couple of sessions shooting sporting clays with it to get used to the gun then I...

LC I have the same Browning white lightning 16. I love it! Light mounts great for me, and like you said it is a 16, kinda cool to shoot them.

You and I and Brent need to get out sometime in the future. I have hunted with him before, he is a good guy.

Great compilation of many hunts this year! I loved it.

Great retrieve Mike. I think a Golden might have found that bird a little quicker or even stole it from your dogs but that is just my bias!

Jonny, the first picture is of Randi the second picture is of Ginger. Both similar dogs from the same litter. Both from Mark Atwaters stud dog. Ginger is a little darker red.

Bob, thanks for sharing that video! I know Mark Atwater and have bred one of my dogs to one of his dogs. I have two offspring from that pairing and they are truly remarkable hunting dogs.

Interesting thought and idea. A couple of years ago I did a three state in one day hunt. Iowa, Minnesota, South Dakota. If I had ten days I would try to shoot pheasants in as many states as I could. Probably start in Montana, then North Dakota, South Dakota, Minnesota, Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas and...

Ok, I will bite. Every year on the day after Thanksgiving my buddy and I always hunt pheasants somewhere. Many years ago we were in a field 3 hours from home, close to a very small town with barely any ammenities. We start out in this huge field of cattails where all the birds are. I am in the...

Bob, lets try to connect. I will send you my cell number.

Hey guys, who is planning to go to Pheasant fest this year in Minneapolis, MN? I would love to connect with other forum members and at least introduce myself, maybe talk shop, tell stories (lies), etc. The dates are Feb. 17-19. https://www.pheasantsforever.org/pheasant-Fest.aspx
