yes the birds are super spooky right now everywhere. I had the opertunity to go to SD on dec 3 and it was hard to get near them. we did ok but it was a tuff hunt. Got a layoff the day I returned so Kansas is out :mad: to much snow now for a local hunt also so I think I am done for the season:(...

I think every one has covered the mechanics as far as shouldering and shooting a gun. The best advice I will add is to look at picking up a auto loader that fits you. The automatic will take some of the kick out for you. The next thing is to get your own gun that fits you. Go down to the gun...

:(:(:( I remember we use to want to go to Iowa to hunt. Did you have a dog?

Nice shot.:coolpics: I need a job like yours. It must not pay much though I think it's time for a upgrade on your wheels.:rolleyes:

first bird Great thread, a lot of good stories here’s mine. I was fortunate to grow up with a dad who hunted and raised GSP for a hobby. It was 1973 and I was 11 out with my dad hunting not far from where I live now in MN armed with a .410 bolt action. We were hunting a deep drainage ditch that...

Pay attention to the dog in the field at the time. I have noticed in my last two dogs that if they are fairly fresh they retreive great. If they are real hot and tired with a mouth full of feathers they will grab it, drop it and then wait for me to come pick it up. I think it's hard for them to...

Be consistent with your commands and what you expect them to do after the command. Example Heel means heel at your side not come in the general area.

I dont know if it's still legal but if I remember right when I was in Montana elk hunting about 10 years ago you could shoot out your car window with a beer / drink at the same time.:eek:

I new enough to look at the reports and the atlas. The guys on here can give me info like what are the better times to come weather wise and areas you would run into sand burs thing like that, stuff that people that have never been there before dont think about. Hell I didn't know that you had...
