    Victor Dog Food

    Do any of us, myself included, ever realize the "fleecing " we take on dog food these days? $50-70 a bag for "scraps and byproducts", really? I look back and we fed our dogs a food called Strongheart for years that was dirt cheap from the local feed store and our dogs were always fine that I...

    Land prices.

    There is ground in our immediate area that just re-rented this yr for 165/ac. The farmer that retained it had been paying 140 the last several years on it and had been admittedly losing every year at 140. His rebuttal when I asked what the hell he was thinking was "ill never get it back if I...

    Land prices.

    I hate it but I guess I'm glad it's them and not a developer or solar or something of that nature. I have farmed and ranched my whole life and now work in the AG sector as well. 25K per doesn't work I don't care where you are. I've sat here a moment and tried to find the words to describe...

    TSS any good?

    The downrange power is amazing. Just pay cash and throw the receipts away before the wife sees them

    Retire my hat?

    Absolutely not! I told my daughter to bury me or burn me with mine when the time comes. The stories and land mine has seen can never be replaced

    New Browning A5 Sweet 16 Pattern

    Bought one in 2022, and have an old Belgium model sweet 16 from 1962 that was my grandpa's. Love both for different reasons. The new one cost a little more than I'm sure my grandpa paid new but it's a great gun and worth every penny so far.

    GSP questions

    I never worried about size much but my last female I got is the biggest gsp I have owned. Not overly huge but big framed and big boned for a female. I noticed when she was young she would tire a little easier than my other dogs and you could hear the difference in the way she sounded going...

    Disappointed

    I heard that they had bought out Mack's Prairie Wings as well. All these stores will be down to one line that you have to borrow from the bank to wear or shit stuff nobody who ever hunted designed. I've got a pair of brush pants my grandfather had that are in good enough shape to still wear...

    Disappointed

    When I was a teenager Cabelas had a ton of upland gear on hand. Nowadays, maybe 2 different types of pants and a vest or 2 if you're lucky. Sad.

    Pressure?

    I was fortunate and had the chance to hunt private ground the last couple days in central Kansas. The birds were honestly better than I have seen in years. Yesterday we ran out of private so we decided to finish the day hunting WIHA. We walked 5 fields and never saw a bird. It's such a joke ...

    Did you call them in? Wiha or no wiha, can't do it in Kansas.

    What would your reaction be?

    I think I'd of figured out how tough someone was in that situation. Total BS. You should have driven away with 17 valve stems in your cup holder.

    Dog not eating when on the road hunting

    I have fought this with the heavy majority of the pointers/gsp I have owned. Then my hunting buddy has always had labs and they seem to have half the bowl ate before the kennel door is shut lol

    Dog not eating when on the road hunting

    I've resorted to whatever I can get down them. Cheeseburgers, leftovers, etc...I figure any calories are better than nothing. It's frustrating for sure. I really try and pack some weight on them the last month before season but they still don't have much to spare.

    Oddest Animal Pointed Ever

    Twice with my male shorthair I had in college, and the fight was on. I've seen some bad dogfights in my life but the dog v. badger both times topped them all.
