    How often do you encounter the law?

    I had never been checked here in Western Kansas in ~35 years as an avid hunter. I read this post a several weeks ago and remember reflecting back on this and chuckling to myself about all of the law abiding rules I/we follow as a sportsman, not because of fear but because it's the right thing...

    Youth Weekend

    I "begged" 3 boys to go out and hunt so I could work my young dog before this weekend. We didn't go out until 10:30 because they had some youth sport commitments. It was pretty warm by the time we started, upper 50's. We walked ~1.5 miles of WIHA CRP along some harvested irrigated crop land...

    Pheasant tips and my plan for the weekend.

    Oh man, do I feel silly. I wish I would have met someone like you sooner. This would have saved me $10,000. I will look around for a better gun when I go to Europe for the summer. Maybe we can meet up next year when I get a better gun. Postponing my first trip will allow time for more...

    Pheasant tips and my plan for the weekend.

    Bob, This sounds like a bucket list hunt trip for sure! Are you up for some company? I would tag along if you will allow. (Might be easier to hunt out of the window if we take turns driving for each other.) This will be my first year pheasant hunting, and I have a brand new, fully engraved...

    Sealing Tonneau Cover from Dust

    I purchased a seal kit and was disappointed how dusty my bed was, even after installing. After a few months the lower kit detached so I removed it, but the side seals were still intact. I recently went on a trip to the mountains and drove several miles on dirt roads. The inside of my bed...

    Gun training puppy

    My wife's golden retriever came to us in early June 2012. We (mistakenly) had a 4th of July party at our house ~1 month later. This was a huge mistake and I never could get him over it. He would get excited when he saw guns and wanted to go hunting with us but only got out of the back of the...

    Let's Bitch (Can't Hunt)

    CC, Velvet, Forty Creek all lead the pack to my previous comment "no Canadian BS"! 🤣

    Let's Bitch (Can't Hunt)

    Sheesh! I love sharing a good bourbon just like the next "liar" that has a good hunting dog, and their great hunting spot. My problem is I also like reliable shotguns also. I struggle with paying more for bourbon than what what my favorite O/U cost! 🤪 Seriously, how good can "Pappy" be?!?

    Let's Bitch (Can't Hunt)

    Certainly! Bourbon taste better when shared with a fellow liar! Remember, I'm a self declared ***hole that talks while hunting and refuses to take home birds through...🤣

    Let's Bitch (Can't Hunt)

    I have a standard bottle sitting on the sitting on my shelf right now. That is cool that they have a special bottle for SD. I wonder if other distilleries do this also?

    Let's Bitch (Can't Hunt)

    Beer?? Whiskey?? Conversation?? Only allow sleeping hole-to-hole in a camper?? Where do I send my application to join your hunt party? ;) I am only interested if the whiskey is made from corn in Kentucky! I don't want any of that Canadian BS!

    Let's Bitch (Can't Hunt)

    Part of the public land or heavily hunted areas probably demand more stealth behavior. I know our hotspots around here, we use extreme caution to keep the noise down when we jump out. However in a large field walking a quarter or a half mile next to a friend or cousin that you have not seen...

    Let's Bitch (Can't Hunt)

    As I read through this thread I have learned that I am an ***hole for the following reasons! :ROFLMAO: I am really glad this thread is out here because it does make a person think about their "normal" actions/routines that may be causing others skin to crawl and until now, I didn't know it was...

    Unintended Consequences of being a Pheasant Hunter

    I wondered where all of the weeds in my yard came from....

    Dog Transport Needed: Indy, IN to Gettysburg, SD

    I'm Googling how many miles from Western Kansas to Indianapolis to South Dakota... I am kidding, or am I. This is a great opportunity for somebody?

    Bumper Color

    I prefer the orange ones in the event that my dog can't find it, then my failing eyesight has a puncher's chance of finding it in the tall grass!

    Wanting to trade a hunt

    I have the same concerns... Localized hail storms and the drought had to hurt the bird numbers, but a few of my customers are reporting "pockets" of birds similar to normal as they have started harvesting their corn. Too much standing crops left to know for a while.

    Wanting to trade a hunt

    I just had to "Google" Idaho to see where it is...and they say Kansas is a fly-over state!?! 😜 I have often wondered where chukkar were native. We do a lot of control shooting with pen raised here for our youth events. I'll be happy to visit with you sometime. Shoot me a PM with your email.

    Wanting to trade a hunt

    I've been on a couple snipe hunts in the past that didn't yield much success but I guess I'd consider trying it one more time ... if our schedules allow. Based on my past experiences, the fabled snipe seems to be very elusive. If you can guarantee me bag limit success, I will throw in a...
