    Do you carry a dog first aid kit while hunting and if so what should be in one

    In case of hypoglycemia, Any dog can get low blood sugar levels after a long hard day of hunting or several days in row. I haven’t had to use it on my dogs but did on a friend’s. If seizures happen, you don’t have to get them to swallow just get on the tongue.

    Grass Awn's - DEADLY for your dog

    I had a run in with my young gsp this spring. Noticed a bump on his short ribs. Kept getting bigger. Imagining didn’t show anything. Two rounds of antibiotics almost made bump go away. But as soon and they wore off it came back fast. Took two surgeries but luckily it was caught before it got to...

    Game warden question

    Haven’t take the time to do a proper search of regulation's for MN. But in many states you can’t participate in hunting activities unless you have a license. For example you can’t drive deer to a posted hunter unless you have a license, whether you carry a gun or not. Same goes for calling a...

    TSS any good?

    I’m going to throw out my 2 cents…. And it probably not worth the paper it’s printed on. TSS is awesome if you can afford it( and the possible dentist appointment if you miss it while cleaning). It will kill, at longer ranges than most can shoot. But I am tired of all the discussion of how far...

    Another Shot Size Thread

    Hypothetically…. If you don’t tell them they won’t know…. They have just as good a chance with steel 1’s as with what ever bismuth you have.

    Out of Towner Questions

    I say go! See what happens. I hunt in ND every year and hunt some plots and some private with no fee. We have found some great people that let us hunt for free. We meet them and small time diners or bars. We lost some ground last year as the owner sold out and retired. But went to the gas...

    Is Bismuth Shot really more effective than Steel?

    I after trying several sizes I ended up using #6 early season. I switch to #5 on windy days or late season. I hunt over a pointer so try and keep shots under 30 yds. But have made a few longer shots.

    Is Bismuth Shot really more effective than Steel?

    It depends….. I don’t like accidentally biting down on a steel pellet so I shoot bismuth. I also have been shooting a 28 gauge the last few years and in my opinion steel doesn’t cut it in a small bore. I have seen several posted studies that claim #2 steel is most effective on pheasants so...

    Which Barrel First For Over/Under

    I agree with everyone so far, except I’m not sure I could reload the top barrel faster than the bottom barrel. Hunting over my pointing dog, i always shoot bottom barrel first. (It has the more open choke) but when shooting sporting clays, it depends on the station. But I always have the open...

    New rule regarding versatile

    Every dog I’ve ever had was VERSITILE! Besides hunting partners. They have assisted in picking up women, been bed warmers ( when we didn’t score!) plate cleaners, good listeners and above all been there through thick and thin and been happy about it all!
