Wednesday Hunted the Benson, Litchfield area WIA's. My dog flushed a rooster, a hen and a runner that would not flush. Took the rooster. I found that my pheasant hunting skill are lacking. I'm grouse hunter for the most part. I hunt the pheasant opener with some friends and catch the easy...

Priceless Watching a well-trained dog working a field or the forest is an art form. It one of the greatest sight I've ever seen. It amazes me every time we go out. People think that upland hunting is just killing. If they could see a bird dog working a field they would develop a new...

I was hunting grouse in Northern Minnesota. It started to snow and my dog seemed to have trouble scenting birds. Early in the day at different locations she flushed 9 birds. We stopped for lunch it started to snow and we tried two different locations she didn't catch any scents. She worked...

I don't know if this is the right place for this link, but here goes. I am looking at creating or adding maps to my GPS. I have a pair of Garmin's: Nuvi 1450T and Venture HC. I see that the Minnesota DNR provides a WMA base map. I would like to add Snowmobile trails, logging roads in the...

I am new but, I think you should re-instate him. Censorship like this has killed many a good forum. Look at Pheasant Hunting forum, for example. It was once one of the busiest forums out there, now it is nothing. This forum cannot become "One Man's" instrument; If it does it will die out.
