Selling a (very) lightly used DT Systems 509 launcher setup. Sized for quail, pigeon, chukar. Good training tool. I used it twice, don't need it any longer since my pup has a rock-solid point. These units are $360 new (if you can find one) - I'm selling for $250, buyer pays shipping. Link...

Yeah, I know this the CO forum - but the NE forum is lot quieter than ours and I figured a few folks on this one might have some insight on what happens just east of the border… I'm taking the dog to Omaha on a business trip in a couple week, got client out there that's got some good land for...

Hey, All - I will be heading home to CO from Omaha in a couple weeks, with dog & gun (a buddy in Omaha is taking me out for a day out that way). Looking at the maps the State puts out, I see some CRP lands west and south of Wallace. Can anyone tell me if it's worth my while to detour south...

Alright, everyone - I know this is common sense for the VAST majority of us, but I gotta post cuz it's driving me nuts! I am sick and tired of bypassing a WIA due the fact that there are animals in the corn, only to see somebody else jump in that corner and start hunting. Stop and think about...

Question for everyone… I haven't yet gotten into waterfowl, but I know that the timing of a front can have a major effect on how ducks/geese behave. What do you all think - same for upland birds? Assuming you have the flexibility to choose, best to get after roosters ahead or behind a major...

Hey, All - Looking for a little local intel. Have a last minute opportunity to possibly hunt some private land in the Plentywood area. Don't know a thing about the area. Can any of you give me some idea as to the bird situation up that way? And I can't find much in the way of hotels in town...

Anyone else had issues with this rebate? They offered $2/box on AA loads a couple months ago - I bought 40 boxes (these are the loads I use on sporting clays), did the paperwork and sent in for the rebate. They require the usual 6-8 weeks for processing. 9 weeks later, I call Winchester, they...

I'm in Colorado, have a neighbor with some family land near Fairbury, NE. I've never been in that area, he describes the land as primarily milo, with some CRP. He's said I'm welcome to hunt it if I want to make the trip. Can anyone provide some intel as to the pheasant population in the...

Just picked up a Beretta Silver Pigeon III 20ga. Have been carrying around a very heavy auto 12, this thing's light as a feather in comparison. Looking forward to having less arm fatigue this coming season! I've been using the Federal Pheasant Forever loads in the 12ga, have been super happy...

Anybody out in the Holyoke area have any info on how the weather this spring has been? Last few days look to have been pretty brutal... Concerned about farmers' crops and nesting conditions for the hens...

I'm shopping for a nice O/U, have pretty much narrowed it down to these two (unless somebody has another option in a similar pricepoint). I've put both to my shoulder at the local gun shop, they both feel good. Anybody have input to share as to which they prefer & why? Much appreciated!

I've got a pointing lab, 2 yrs old. If she can see me, she generally stays within about 20 yards. However, when we get into the deep/thick stuff, I lose sight of her (despite her blaze vest) and she loses sight of me - she disappears about 8 or 10 yards out. If she finds a bird, she'll stand...

Sorry for the noob question... Have been hitting a few of the WIA around Holyoke and many of them have a tall grass with a reddish color to it. Anyone know what this grass is called? Just curious... Thanks!

Has anyone here hunted with this gun? I'm shopping and it fits my pricepoint... Have swung it a bit in the store, it fits me nicely. The reviews in the magazines are good, but I'd really like to hear from someone who's put it to use in the field over a period of time. Any feedback would be...

So, a few of us are going out tomorrow and we're hunting behind my dog. My wife asked me an interesting question: "How do you guys split up the birds you get?". I told her we each would likely take the same number of birds we shot. If I got one and one of the other guys got three, that's how...

Not sure if this is the best place to start this thread, but... We always fry our Thanksgiving turkey(s). This year, I'm pondering the idea of trying a pheasant or two in there. Anybody tried this? How's it turn out? Thanks!

I'm on the fence between these two shells for use in a Rem 11-87 12ga... The Federal has 1-1/4 oz shot, 1500fps. The Fiocchi has 1-3/8 oz, 1485 fps. Anyone out there had experience with either/both? The price is comparable, within $1/box. I'm hunting over a pointing lab, she keeps pretty...
