Just wanted to share a couple of images with the group. I had the privilege of hosting a Pheasant's Forever Ladies Only hunt (a few of us guys were allowed to tag along and run our dogs). The weather was miserable but everyone managed get off a few shots and most brought down a bird or two...

Well my 7 year old lab/springer mix had injured hist front right paw. It appears that the superficial flexor on his two middle toes has teared, his two toes lay flat when he stands and sits but returns to normal when the paw is relaxed. He has been to two vets and an orthopedic specialist...

Well six of us headed towards Armour, SD for our second annual trip to Uguide Cattail Haven. The bird numbers were down from last year but we still had an incredible hunt. We managed to harvest 31 birds after 4 long days of hunting, with plenty of (missed) opportunities. Our first day...

Just wondering if anyone has hunted Uguide Cattail Haven yet this season. I am heading out with our group in a few weeks. Last year we saw a ton of birds, wondering how it is looking so far this season.

How long do you guys usually run your dogs for, especially on a multi-day outing. I hunted hard all weekend and the dog seems to need a little more recovery time this year than in the past. We have our annual SD hunt coming up and was wondering what others are doing. In the past he would...

Went for a walk in one of the upstate NY Pheasant release areas yesterday. I was very impressed in both the cover and the way the birds reacted. We bumped a few birds before I had a chance to take a clean shot. Attached is a pic of the days harvest. Hopefully we can work on getting more of a...

Well the first preserve hunt of the year was going great, until the dog got sprayed by a skunk. A mixture of peroxide and skunk off has the dog smelling much better, but his e-collar is still stinky. It seems like the oils have broken done the plastic, anyone have any tips to get the stink...

Hello all, Well it has been a trying week for my 13 year old lab. Last Tuesday early in the morning he was not able to stand and every time he was able to get up he would begin to stagger and fall over (looked like he had too many beers). So a trip to the emergency vet was in order. I...

I just recently returned from a Thanksgiving week hunt at Uguide Cattail Haven and wanted to write a brief post about my experience. Juts a heads up as to what I expect in a pheasant hunt, is an unguided trip with great cover, good bird numbers, and a warm place to sleep. I am not looking for...

I have been to every sporting goods store within 2 hours of my house (in upstate NY) and I cannot find any Federal wingshock or prairie storm. I went to bass pro yesterday and was told that the only Federal shells that they carry now are black cloud and have discontinued carrying all Federal...

Just wondering if any New Yorkers have been out hunting yet this year. I have done a little Grousing without much luck and have hit the local preserve a couple of times. Attached is a pic from this past Saturday.

Hello all, I am new to the forum and would like to introduce myself. I am a semi-long term pheasant hunter. I find myself chasing after a few of the NY state released birds as well as a little game farm and grouse hunting in between trips to MN and SD. I have a lab/springer mix that is just...
