Hey all, very good day today! The weather was just beautiful! Absolutely wonderful, nice breeze, sun and warm......the perfect fall day. Anyway, I was able to get my first limit of the year, and I got it in about 20 minutes. Went after some grouse after that, but didn't see a one, oh well...

Hey all, went out after work for a couple hours. Saw quite a few birds, but the boy birds were pretty wild. Did manage one and a grouse, so a good couple hours well spent. Raina did well, except one time she got stupid and flushed one wild. Oh well, can't be perfect all the time! Today I...

WOW!!! You hit the hun Jackpot! Way to go! Best, Greg

Thanks for the kind words!

Hey all, been an interesting weekend. Yesterday was a complete bust, didn't drop the hammer once. Did see some grouse (wild of course). Went out today after Church, was a dry and windy day (perfect scenting conditions!) Addie was able to pin one down, nice retrieve on her part. Saw one other...

Hey all, well today was not bad. Only saw 2 Ringnecks, one my son took a Hail Mary shot and one I got. Those were the only pheasants we saw. Did see a fair amount of grouse, but wild. That time of year for them. The bright spot of the day is I got a scotch double on huns. Addie went on...

Thanks so much for your very kind words Best Greg

Hey all, well no limits today, but did get a mixed bag. So....a good day overall. It was a nice day compared to a week of 25-30mph winds. Low winds and cooler temps. Anyway, we saw a lot of pheasants today....mostly hens. The few roosters we (my son Jim and I) saw were really spooky. Did...

Hey all, well, another day of crappy pheasant hunting! Got up one hen.....and that was it! On the bright side, did take a slight detour to go after some grouse. Got a double out of a covey rise and worked the prairie for a short time. Got one on a long shot, that was gratifying. Limited in...

Hey all, thought it would be nice if we shared some pictures of this years season. Please post pics of you, your birds, buddies, guns and dogs. Anyway, day 2 of the pheasant season, except.....no pheasants! Got up one hen and a rooster that flushed wild. Boy, today my shooting was really...

Hey all, well today was the Opener. For me it translated into one word....Sucked! I saw a total of 4 birds that got up wild and that was it. None of the old reliable spots held any birds (today that is). But, didn't go home empty handed. Did manage a limit of grouse. It's been an...

Hey all, my son Jim and I switched gears today from duck hunting to do a little grouse hunting. It was a good day. Jim was the hot gun and was able to limit in about 1/2 hour. He got a nice double, then a single. I had to work a bit harder, took me 2 hours to limit. All singles. It was...

Best of luck to you tomorrow! Fingers crossed for a successful hunt. Best Greg

+ 1 the ones I shot were full of buffalo berries and hoppers. Some waste grain also.

Hey DZ, been awhile, good to hear from you again! It's been a good year. G&F said that grouse are down 13%, but I'd never know that. Been seeing quite a few. Been getting young and old birds, so that's not a bad sign. They've been hanging out in typical Sharpie cover, short grass hills and...

Hey all, went out early today before the wind picked up. Good thing I did. Was able to limit in about 1 1/2 hours. Got a double, then got a single out of a covey that got up kind of wild. Wasn't sure I hit the last one, but over the hill came Addie with it! The wind picked up to about 20...

Hey all, went out today after Mass, couldn't go yesterday, we got some much needed rain (all day). Anyway, was able to limit in less than a couple hours. Two were singles and one was in a big bunch. Adddie did well again! She's a natural! Used my 16ga FN today, still don't know the model, it...

Hey all, went out by myself today. Went back up to where we hunted on Saturday. Took Addie again, it was Raina's turn to go, but she was limping a bit, so I want her to heal up. Anyway, was able to limit within an hour. The birds I got were all singles, and young birds. It was a good day...

Thanks for the kinds!!! I do love GSP's. They are a very easy dog to train, loyal as all get out, great watch dogs and wonderful family dogs as well. You need to get one with a good hunting background, a NAVHDA bred if possible. A Field Trail background IMO tend to run too far out and work...

Hey all, went out after Mass today, solo (it does pay to go to Church, BTW). Hunted a spot by the house, and I limited in about 50 minutes. Should have gotten a double on the first group we got up, but alas not. Did double on the next group. These birds (all young) held very well for Addie...
