My wife killed her first ever pheasant where dad killed his last. It got pretty emotional in a hurry and that’s how we decided to end the trip, with great memories.

Jet we went out last weekend. My son said let’s take the side by sides in case the roads are bad. Best decision ever. We hunted all the ground we had permission for. A landowner stopped us and thanked us for using our sxs and not tearing up the roads. Let us hunt an 80 of his below his feed lot...

Who did the dance last time? Make them dance longer this maybe?

When you start paying my bills you can get me whatever you want. Until then maybe quit criticizing things you don’t have.

I hunted with an old man when I was a kid that had a poly choke A5. He was a shooting machine with it. I still have a mossberg 500 20 gauge with a poly choke that I grew up with. I like being able to adjust a little or a lot depending on loads for a good pattern. I have modified several choke...

I clean mine at lunch and every evening of the hunt. Cooler full of ice, drain water off and re ice daily. I fill a bucket up with ice in the morning for the noon cleaning and let them slosh around in the ice water until I get back to the motel. Just the way my dad did it so I do it that way.

Rader lodge is a great bunch. You wouldn’t be disappointed with them in my opinion. I understand stand what you mean on the learning. Sometimes it comes down to time restraints. Good luck with whatever you decide.

How close are you to the Quinter area? I know you have answered this question several times for me but I am having a brain pain.

Kick that that really sucks. I had to put down dads Visalia last week. It was the last thing I had to connect to dad. He’s been gone 3 years now. I feel your pain. Spread her ashes and remember the great times. I will be going to western Kansas this season to spread some ashes of 3 different...

Anyone up for a good snipe hunt?

Over here in Missouri around lake of the Ozark’s we haven’t even thought about getting the combine out to shell corn. Still green and high moisture. My dove hunting was supposed to be awesome this week so scheduled vacation. Plan b is go to a spring south of me and catch tame trout all week. At...

Not being a smart ass on this so bear with me. You say that Kansas has lost about half its hunters in the last 30 years. On those numbers am I figured in as a lost hunter to Kansas since I have moved to Missouri? So in the numbers if Kansas lost 1 then Missouri should have gained one. I don’t...

Missouri has a phone app to telecheck your deer. It takes less than two minutes to check in a deer and then your done and the state has what sex, if buck points, circumference of base, county taken in, public or private land and etc. They give you a confirmation number you write on your tag and...

Maybe I can get back next fall and at least drive around and remember running around up there with dad. What would be awesome is to meet up out west with you and Glenn for a couple days. Now I am just dreaming.

Do I still get to look at your lands when I go through? You have always been generous on letting people hunt buddy. Thanks for always letting me stubble around.

I have zero contact anymore with anyone with the state. I unfortunately now reside in Missouri. The great governor Haden liked quail hunting and dad had some fine dogs to take him out hunting. Sorry for not being able to assist anymore. The big it was about non resident deer hunting. I was...

With all due respect I did personally face to face talk with Mike Hayden both when governor and then later director. He told me on several occasions that it won’t happen. Well it happened and your Proverbial wheel ran me over. Moral of my post is don’t trust any political person. They are in it...

Slip lead and a pair of snap on high leverage pliers. They can cut a quarter inch bolt easily so good for cable removal and fence repair.

The best dog breed is the one you like and feed. They all are great and they all suck at times. I love labs.

Dad had a friend that had a pit lease by Kirwin. The pit I had at Glen Elder was in my grandmas field north of Cawker City. She leased it out to a family friend and when I went to vo tech in Beloit they dug another pit and built the blind for me and my friends at school. Lots of fun. The old guy...
