    Last Hunt of 2016 Season

    Last Friday ended the 2016 season for us. *I was fortunate enough to get invited to hunt some private land. *It was a beautiful day with very little wind. * Deep brushy*coulees with cattails in the bottom and wheat fields on top. *It took the better part of the day with most birds out smarting...

    Cold Roosters

    I hunted a few days a week and a half ago. We had nasty cold weather. Weather was staying in the single digits for highs and negative temps at night and early in the morning. The first day I hunted we were into plenty of birds but they were in tall willows and shots were difficult to come by...

    Hard Earned Roosters

    A buddy and I hunted a combination of private land and block management two days last week. We hunted thick nasty riverbottom country that was tough on a pointing dog. I'd lose sight and sound of Cash for a while and knew he was pointed, but I couldn't find him in the overgrown jungle. A...

    A couple hunts

    The General elk and deer seasons started a little over a week ago, but I've not been out with the rifle yet. The weather has been really warm for late October and I've not looked forward to the orange army. I think I'll get out this Thursday morning and look for an elk and I have a hunt...

    Roosters with Dad (resized the jumbo photos)

    My parents made the long trip last week for their yearly visit, so Dad and I were able to get out and hunt roosters.* Dad has killed several pheasants on a state put-and-take hunt in Illinois but never hunted wild roosters.* The dog work on our first day out was far from what I wanted, but I...

    Last week of 2015

    A good friend and I got in a few days pheasant hunting this week to finish up my upland season. I did the driving and he provided locations for pheasants. We took my two dogs Kassie (WPG) and Cash (GWP) and his dog Clancy (WPG). Kassie isn't quite 2 so still rather inexperienced and always...

    MT Family Hunt

    All my kids were out of school for Thursday and Friday for an annual teacher's conference, so I took the opportunity to haul all of us and the dogs east to chase roosters, huns, and sharpies (but mostly roosters). In addition to the mixed bag upland opportunities, I brought a rifle along for...

    1st Montana Roosters

    I've had Kassie out at least a half dozen times this year. That isn't as much as I had planned, but the best I've been able to do. I had to turn down two invites (due to work) on 4 day hunts in Eastern Montana that would have been incredible experience for her. We've hunted Block Management...

    New to site

    I originate from Southern IL. My family and I moved to CO in 2006 and from there to MT in 2011. I've not bird hunted for approximately 20 years. That was bobwhites back home in Southern IL over a pointer and a setter. Since then I've hunted big game exclusively in the fall and turkeys in the...
