    A season with the hounds

    Cool pics. She's a good looking dog. I'm not big on recommending products but I got a free sample of 'Canine Active' and it really helps Trap recover from a day in the field. ymmv

    Can pheasants see blaze orange?

    To answer the OP question- Yes. Why are birds so vibrantly colored if it can't be seen. Am I going to hunt pheasant in camo? Not on a bet. I know I've saved myself miles of walking because I could see an orange hat off in the distance. It just is what it is.

    Fiocchi Golden Pheasant Shells

    My favorite gun and my favorite shell. You're firing pin could be 40 years old. Go to Numrich and get another. While there replace every spring you can and if you haven't changed the shock washer to a 1/4" O-ring do that too. It's not a difficult disassembly. There are guides available online...

    Maybe there won't be a fall

    It was so smokey here yesterday at times the sun couldn't cast a shadow. Pretty sure it's the Napa fires but Table fire is a possibility.

    Maybe there won't be a fall

    They saw all this smoke, thought it was LA smog and turned around.

    Opening weekend and beyond

    Be VERY careful with broken toenails. I had to deal with a blood infection once. Almost lost her. Antibiotics are an excellent call.

    Dog Vest or No Vest?

    I use a bright orange vest if there is a good chance of running into other hunters. If I feel I need a vest due to trash, wire or scrap metal then I'm in the wrong place and go elsewhere.

    MT& SD trip

    re: post #12 You really have the depth of field working on that camera. Great shot of the good looking setter. If I wasn't springer locked I might have considered getting one. So no trouble finding open ground I take it?

    For those going hunting out of state

    Cal do you have a link for that? I just spent a ridiculous amount of time searching for it and all I came up with was 1 writers opinion but nothing concrete. What I did find was an ammo registration clause that takes effect on 1/1/18 and 7/1/19. Most laws signed during the year take effect on...

    Springer spaniel breeder help

    Call Gary Breitbarth in Gridley. He's a ESSFTA National Champion. http://ganddkennels.com/ +1 on the medical clearances. It's a deal breaker without them.

    Beretta a400 xplor or Benelli ultralight

    The one that fits him best. What gauge is he getting? He should be able to do any work on it himself. It's part of the drill. I had a Beretta 390 for awhile and just found it clumsy. Only shot gun I ever sold.
