Just seen this. Just got back from hunting. I’ll be going to Cherry Bend for preserve birds later on if ya want to go. Ohio season ends Sunday.

Love Ian Frazier. Lot a good stuff mentioned. I’m gonna check out the classics, Rutledge, Babcock etc. On that note I’ll recommend W.H. Foster’s “New England Grouse Shooting”. Excellent read with fantastic Illustrations.

I’m a voracious reader and thought I would welcome members to recommend some favorites. A couple titles I think a lot of are “Pheasants of the Mind: a hunters search for a mythic bird” by Datus Proper “The best of Nash Buckingham” compiled by G.B. Evans Check ‘em out

Sorry I’m late to the thread. Still may be able to save some of you. 20 gauge is a woman’s shotgun. Give your 20 gauge a peck on the cheek and put it back in the kitchen. Grab the 12 and bring home the bacon. Keep yer powder dry and run em to me.

Shot 2 a couple weeks ago. 1 was kinda red, the other pale and looked exactly like chicken breast. Same field, same day. Age? Idk. Both in freezer

Badlands vest Cable cutters Leash Bird knife Garmin Astro Water bottle 10 12 gauge shells Pouch of Red Man Sport Dog slung around my neck

2 cocks 4 hens. Shot one and walked the rest with an empty gun.

Something about cold and snow says hunting weather. Tracked quite a few birds when I didn’t have a dog. And eventually get em up.

Get 2 pair of the gloves you like the best. Wear one pair and stick the other in the front of yer pants. Switch em out as needed. My Pop did this for me as a youngster and it works to this day. Run em to me

Been hunting Badlands vest a few years now. Love it…but you cannot load birds with it strapped on. Undo straps-set gun down-load bird. Also I’ve never had faith in any elastic shell holders on any gear period. Put em in a pouch and roll. As a kid I had to fill every elastic shell holder...

Released 20 cocks…lotta powder burnt for 7!

Was told the area north and east of Russell had a little more rain. Good luck regardless

Around Russel and Hill City

Lack of birds. Weather was good. Some fields were grazed or baled, but some looked really good. And I walked them to the back, just no birds. And I mean I didn’t even see a pheasant let alone shoot at one.

Did you sell yours on AR?

Back home from Kansas, disheartening to say the least. Gonna hunt around home this weekend to make sure my dogs nose still works.

Can’t say for sure, I’m thinking wild birds

Abysmal, one covey of quail. Zero pheasants. Lots of deer a few coyotes and rabbits. Hunted all around Russell. Hunted north of Hill City. All public and it was just dismal. My Dad and I with a dog each. First day in the snow, zero tracks. Second day zero beds or crap. Folks we talked...

South of Russell bout to kickoff

Yes, looked at RST and they sold out of 12 gauge
