    Worth the trip?

    Thinking about a late season trip. Anyone have a report from Marion/Logan counties? I know the pheasant numbers are down but quail numbers worth the trip?

    Front feet??

    Have heard guys say they only put boots on their dog's front feet. Anyone have an opinion? I'm not sure it's worth the risk.

    Trust your dog

    For the last couple days, all three dogs have been obsessed with a half drum of scrap steel out back in a lean to. I told them to cut the crap as I am not emptying out all that steel just so they can smell a mouse nest. Then, on a 93-degree afternoon I see two dogs digging the gravel from around...

    Land prices.

    If any of you guys are thinking about buying some ground, you might want to do it now. We were looking for 40-80 acers a few years ago but prices got out of hand before we got it done. It seemed like it took a few years or so before the prices raised out west so just to let you know, the prices...

    On X question

    I'm tech. challenged, so forgive me.. I'm trying. I finally got it figured out on my phone and it works great. I would like something with a bigger screen. Loaded it on my wife's Kendal but couldn't get it to work outside the hose. Is that because the kindal doesn't work on a satellite signal...

    Sun

    Wear sunscreen boys! Although they tell me the damage was probably done before i ever heard of sunscreen. Never once went into the sun for a tan or ever was in a tanning booth. But more days than most in the field and probably worse on the water

    CATTAILS

    Maybe a dumb question, but why is there still cattail draws in the Dakotas? Is it because they can't be drained because there is no place to drain them? Soil composition? Literally everything here is now field tiled. High ground, low ground. If it's farmed it's tiled! Also, if anyone knows, is...

    Evolution?

    I've wondered about this for a long time. I'm old enough to remember the tall tales from the 30's about the big bronze-colored bobwhites my grandpa and his brothers hunted. They almost always watched them land after the flush. They were half again the size of the birds we have now. When I was a...

    Being prepared

    I expect most of you guys in the western and northern states are prepared for these kind of weather events. But you wouldn't believe how many people down here are not prepared. I always thought I was prepared until I got caught in Kansas once in an ice storm. Long story short it was a bad deal...

    Tragedy averted with Technology

    Yesterday on the way back to the truck I got a on point signal on my Garmin 45 yards ahead. When we got there, we saw that there was a large blowdown with two trees on top of each other. As we are assessing the situation, I lost signal on the Garmin about the same time we heard a muffled...

    Blond bird

    I’ve seen this coloration before. It’s a pen raised bird from a put and take hunt. my grandson shot it yesterday. I skined it. I’ll try and do something with it and give it to him.

    QUAIL

    How are the quail #s around the south-central part of Iowa. DNR says #s are good south of Creston. Is that close or not. I'm trying to put together a trip to KS or Iowa.
