If you are going to drink anything stronger than wine, GOOD shine is the only way to go!

Crows are considered migratory birds under the same treaty with Canada & Mexico that applies to ducks & geese. That is why we have a season on them now. The Mexican gov. was complaining that a season was needed as numbers were declining

So do you believe that includes crows? What about electronic callers for crows?

I have searched & searched the Ohio regs. This years, & last years. It very clearly says that your gun may not be capable of more than three shots for waterfowl, turkey, & deer, but there is no mention of needing a plug for doves or woodcock. Crows are a part of the same treaty, but I see no...

Ditto on the leash!!!

The best grouse dog I ever owned, (or saw, or anyone I ever hunted with ever saw), had this same “problem”. You could not hunt this hard going, small ES by himself in a place that had a lot of phez. He would not relocate on a running bird. But he was a bird finding machine! I would not try to...

To the OP, it sounds like one he!! of a ruffed grouse dog! Would you sell him?

I shoot a Beretta 686 Ultralight. 5.9 lb in 12 bore. I think that felt recoil will be much greater with that long barrel. Mine seems to kick much harder with the 28” barrels than the 24 inchers that I have. I am 5’ 6” on a really good day, and have short arms besides. I have to have all of my...

Steel maybe did not go down in price, but compared to “good” lead, it went way down. In the 70’s, steel was about 3 times the price of high velocity plated lead. Now the comparable lead costs more than steel.

I am glad you got the 24”. I would buy a new one myself if I could get a 22” or shorter

Are there plenty of birds? Would you rather have too many ringnecks oust the hens out of the winter cover, or let nr hunt/harvest them? If there are plenty of birds, why restrict the length of the season or the bag limit. Goose- if you think it is crowded in your state, you ought to try a...

Collar Clinic in Traverse City MI, repairs collars that were even made in the 1970’s!

Salt run-off from the roads is a bigger polluter than lead shot, at least in the area of the eastern great lakes.

Thanks!

Did you do any good? Thx!

Sorry to nitpick, but, I do not know where you got your info from. Ohio is wrong! No restriction on upland birds or small game. Deer, turkey, & waterfowl are now limited to 3 shells, but they did not use to be. Doves are not considered waterfowl, & I can use my Ithaca deerslayer factory 8 round...

Yes, those too

A lot more in the woods than on the prairie. I once stood in one spot with a sxs 24” barrel, cylinder bore 12, & shot 8 times as 4 grouse flushed 1 at a time from a briar patch above me. Missed the bird every time, but cut a 6” tree nearly in half about 3 yards in front of me.

IF I bought a coat or vest that did not have a hanging loop, I wold have one sewed on immediately. I also hang mine from the clothes hook, & have been, for over 60 yrs. I take mine off nearly every move.

I have an original tritronics upland special 2 dog. The transmitter is very similar to the Garmin 550. I also have a cheapie Cabelas ecollar setup. I painted both of the transmitters neon orange. I had done some of my older ones that way & had found one of them in cattails after it had fallen...
