Thanks for the replies.
We hunt in South Dakota, have been staying in Watertown for years and hunting west of there, this last trip (which was my 3rd this year) we stayed in Aberdeen and hunted in that area.
I am a 12 guage purist, I have 2 of the same guns Browning A500, this season I started using Prairie Storm shells, they really knock down the birds.
As for a dog, I dont have one...YET, I hunted over one on opening weekend and it really cemented the fact that I will be getting one.
As for my call name, its a classic story.....has happened one too many times as well!
Where does everyone hunt? Stay? nightlife? Guns? Shells?
Chat soon.
