I saw this on FB. It's not an intensive study, but an interesting tidbit. Seems to be a lots of misconceptions of quail, their mortality and the carryover to next year. While habitat and weather are the largest factors in their mortality, I found this to be interesting also. Especially with...

Chance - This past fall, he won the NBHA National Amateur Championship, Region 17 Championship, and R/U in the NBHA Western Open. All within the span of two weeks. Loves to dock dive as well. Couldn't ask for a better dog.

I was hunting the other day on public ground and saw a guy walking through timber. Whenever I see someone else in the field, I turn around and walk the other way, simply because I do not trust other people or, more importantly their dogs. This time, I didn't have a chance, and he started...

Three puppies available from a great breeding of Irish Setters. They are sired by FC Heiligsepp's Blick and out of Russell's New Day. They are 4 months old and have been introduced to the blank gun, and been on birds, as pictured at 7 and 12 weeks. They are very stylish and incredibly...

I thought that with the season coming up, I would start a thread where everyone could post up some really great spots to hunt. That way many of the out of state guys or the lazy in state guys could just easily come on here, to this thread and not have to start a new thread when they are looking...

I have a buddy who is looking for a chocolate lab pup, sometime in the summer. Would more then likely be just a pet situation, but they do want a puppy. Somewhere in Kansas is preferred. If you know of one, shoot me a PM. Thanks!

The local chapter in Manhattan's banquet is going to be Feb 8th at Purple Wave. The doors open at 5, and dinner is served at 630. If I read it right, there are a limited number of banquet tickets. Five dollar all you can drink beer cups though. That's worth showing up, right? It's a great...

I'm cross posting this in case someone sees this dog. "My name is Jon I am new to the forums but I have been a follower for a while. My friend Curt took our GSP to Kansas on Monday and hunted all day around Clay Center KS (Milford wetlands wildlife area) on the west side of Milford Lake...

I've never hunted behind a flushing dog, really. Always pointing dogs. It seems to me, from reading some of the posts that there is a bit more to just following the dog as it quarters in front. Talk to me about pattern. What do you expect in your dogs, as far as where to go, range, how you...

I thought that I would go ahead and post this here, even though it's short notice. I'm running one of the stations, "Basic Dog Handling" and will have my vizslas there. Shoot me a PM if you are interested or contact Jeremy Lies 785-564-1493 or jlies@npfi.us Basic information: 8 miles North of...

How often do you train or run your dogs? At this point in the game, I have a young bitch that I'm trying to get broken out and I'm training a bit more with her. I also have another dog that I need to get on birds too. (pigeons at this point) So, I'm looking at 2-3 times a week maybe of...

What is good dog work to you? Everyone seems to have their opinion of what good dog work is. I will see these great threads about hunting trips, and folks mention that they had good dog work. What is good dog work? (As an aside, I only have experience with the pointing type dogs, so let me...

Setternut helped me make this pigeon loft, and I have been meaning to post a couple of pictures but haven't gotten around to it. It's ten foot long, by about four foot wide, plus the avairy. The loft is divided into two parts, an old bird portion and a young bird portion. I hope to start...

So, how do you carry your gun in the field? Shell in the chamber, with the safety on? Broken open? Chamber open? Me, I usually just carry it broken open, (O/U) slung over my shoulder. Usually it's unloaded, sometimes it is loaded.

I have three DT Launchers, and two hand held transmitters. NONE work. Anyone have any experience with this? THey have always been garaged, that sort of thing, am going to call DT. From what I've heard, others have had the same problems that I have. 80 bucks a pop to fix them too. :eek: When...

I trial quite a bit, I'm very fortunate to have several trials in my area that are within an hour or so. They are walking trials, so a horse isn't required. Just a hunting dog. There are stakes that are designed for the hunter/new person in which the dog doesn't have to trained to the level...

Went out last weekend for a couple of days. Carried the camera all day on Sunday. Do you see the bird? Radar on point Radar, with Grady backing.

Some of my very favorite spots that I've hunted for years have been leased out to turbines and such. I know that they are a huge resource for energy, blah blah blah. But, personally, my energy bill hasn't gone down, and yet I'm seeing more of them. Don't they have a negative impact on...

It seems that most everyone on here has had an experience with conservation officers on here. I personally feel that they have some of the most difficult jobs out there, dealing with people who are routinely armed on a constant basis. Some of my very best friends are COs. One lives three...
