    How/who to report a scammer to?

    I posted a wtb ad for bird launchers. Got a private message from a guy who joined the day before and did his buddy had some to sell, Send him an email. I did. Lots of replies, many texts. While I can’t guarantee it’s a scam, I’m not sending money and things look very fishy. Pics are from same...

    Wtb bird launchers

    Looking for a couple for me and a buddy. Let me know what you’ve got. I have a great Griff who points well, steadiness is on the docket and these would be helpful. I’ve got one DT, but resetting one all the time is time consuming and would like a couple more.

    Training birds

    Check Surefire kennels in Nunn, they might sell you some. They’re big in NAVHDA, great folks Jake and Sara. Tell them Jon and Maple sent you their way if it works out!

    Favorite needle nose pliers

    Took my Griff out today and probably brushed/picked off 80 burrs, 200 seeds and a few cactus in the pads of mine and buddys dogs. I have a leatherman original my Grandfather gave to me when I got my Eagle Scout. Picking cactus spines out was not easy without a spring opening. Is there a better...

    When to train

    I’m in Erie, CO. A little far from Ft. Collins where the RMC-Navhda is, but well worth the drive based on who I’ve met, talked to and learned from in their trainings. So many knowledgeable folks willing to answer plenty of questions! Jake, Sara, Candice have been super helpful this far and...

    That's a very tempting deal. Too many things to learn and get it seems. Thanks for the lead

    First Aid Kit for pup

    1st hunting dog. Former Wilderness EMT, now teacher. What are you guys normally carrying in a first aid kit and what do you have back at the truck? My plan as of now is a leatherman, some gauze and maybe a check cord if she's pointed on a skunk or porcupine? Also considering a wire brush for...

    Shotkam

    Thanks, I usually wear a ball cap, but when it's cold I usually wear a stocking cap. I'll see what I can find that might work with that. Debating a chest rig but guessing my arms would get in the way.

    Shotkam

    How is your Go Pro attached, I've got a new, 11.5 week old Griff and want to hunt this fall with her. I've got an old Go Pro and it might be fun to play with. Is that public land in SD or somewhere private? Thanks for a new bird dog owner.

    Wtb Garmin 550 pro plus system

    Got a 10 week old wirehaired pointing griffon, out of Iowa, mom was apparently 70 lbs, dad was 75 lbs. Guessing Maple will be pretty close to them. I'm thinking hard on the mini for $530.

    Wtb Garmin 550 pro plus system

    Thanks, I've found a mini locally for $530 I think, lady bought it in a high rise apartment building, found it doesn't work there, not sure why she needs it in such a place. But still debating new vs saving some $. I've heard the longer range and longer battery life are nice features. I hope...

    Wtb Garmin 550 pro plus system

    Anybody got one, I'm not in a huge hurry to buy, think I'd like the tt15 standard instead of the tt15 mini collar. Many thanks from anyone that has one to sell or knows of a good deal on one.

    Treat pouch

    Treat pouch

    Is there one better than the others? I was debating a tool belt pocket? Any thing to like or hate about any. We're thinking having treats on a belt pouch would make them easier to distribute and offer when doing things we want Maple to do. Thanks

    When to train

    So many thanks for all the advice and please keep them coming. I've not gone to a formal training, going to a NAVHDA puppy one tomorrow without the pup to watch and learn. Trying to have fun a lot, short walks, some training for a few minutes at a time, playing and lots of cuddle time. She's...

    Pheasant Scent

    Is one better than another? Thinking about putting some on a wing to try the wing on a string. Wing is from 4 months ago. Is this something I will use a bunch or just to get her started with wings. I see on amazon some from $9 to $24 or so. Cabelas has some for $10. What should I get to put...
