Oh, now I see that it is a Scheel's exclusive boot. https://www.scheels.com/p/mens-crispi-west-river-2.0-boots/15285-CF8430-4200.html

I don't see a boot called the West River on Crispi's web site.

That's what I do. Been doing it for years on the advice of breeders, field trialers and vets. There has been one exception with my current dog. In cold, snowy and wet weather she has become Hypoglycemic a couple of times. She runs so hard and burns a lot of energy plus burning energy trying...

I had an adjustable choke on a 16 ga. Remington 870 back in the 60's. It was a Herter's brand that I bought directly from them and had them install it. Herter's were still in Waseca, MN at the time. The choke seemed to work fine as I shot a lot of pheasants and ducks with that gun.

Obviously some guys are really bored this time of year! 😆

Or a heck of a field trial dog. I really don't see what the OP posted as being a problem. But I guess we all have our individual ideas of what we want our dogs to do in the field.

Certainly no buys at Rogers on 16 ga.

With a gun that light in 12 ga. recoil could be an issue unless you stick with some lower velocity loads. I think you can rule out any 3 inchers. I'd try shooting it "as is" and see what you think before cutting it. You're only talking about 3/8's of an inch. It's not a cheap gun so I'd give...

What make and model is this shotgun?

From 1974 to 1996 I had 3 Springers and a Lab. In 1996 the Springer I had developed hip dysplasia and a friend of mine in Colorado had a litter of Brittany pups. He offered to give me my first Brittany and I've been hooked ever since. I'm now on my 4th Brittany. I love the size, disposition...

You obviously don't know the laws in SD. If we are talking about licenses to hunt pheasants there is no limitation. You can buy as many as you want. Each license is valid for a total of 10 days.

Since when did South Dakota limit non-resident hunting license, other than maybe waterfowl and big game.

I see a couple on Guns International and they are asking around $6,000.

Tom Knapp. I met him and had a couple of drinks with him in Huron, SD at the Ringneck Festival years ago. He put on a shooting exhibition on Friday afternoon. Pretty incredible what he could to with a shotgun and some clay targets. However, on Saturday, the day of the pheasant hunting...

I've been using IC in my guns almost exclusively since the mid 70's.

I assume you are talking about pheasant hunting. I've been hunting pheasants for more than 60 years and never carried anything more than maybe a knife and a length of rope in case my dog got caught in a conibear trap.

Thanks for this info. Guess I haven't looked at the newer Garmin units. It appears the TT25 is about $50 more than the TT15 Mini, but I'd spend the extra bucks and get the TT25 and have the latest technology. I do like the smaller size on my Brittanys.

I have a 35 lb. female Brittany and have had the TT15 Mini for over 6 years. I really like the smaller collar for my Brittany. While some say the Mini has less battery life and less range I would say that it is minimal and nothing to be concerned about. I have the Alpha 100 with the TT15 Mini...

Years ago I hunted a very good retrieving dog with a new dog. The older dog would take the birds away from her and thus she learned she didn't need to retrieve. Big mistake on my part. I'd try hunting them separate and see if that makes a difference. Opposite of your dog, I had one that...

45 years of living in SD and they never had a Pheasant Fest in Sioux Falls until I started spending my winters in Arizona. :mad: I did go to one in Kansas City and another in Minneapolis.
