    Truck cap or no truck cap? Pros and Cons

    You are correct as it does not offer added security. You wouldn't have to cut through it as you could just unzip the rear window. It is the same amount of security a Jeep with a soft top has. I have a shelf in the bed that the kennels sit on. With my tailgate locked the only way to get under the...

    Truck cap or no truck cap? Pros and Cons

    Here are a few pics of my Softopper. Can't say enough about it. Light weight, easy to fold or remove if needed.

    Truck cap or no truck cap? Pros and Cons

    I live in WI but have had no problems with wind or snow. My truck sits outside through summer storms and has held up great. Had some straight line winds come through and tear off siding on a few of my neighbor's houses. No damage to the cap.

    Truck cap or no truck cap? Pros and Cons

    I have a Softopper on my Tacoma and love it. Best truck accessory I have ever bought. Can't add pics while at work but I will try to remember when I get home.

    Time to shake off the rust?

    I live just north of Madison. Let me know if you ever want to get out and see what we can't find. I don't do much pheasant hunting as I go up north as much as possible for grouse and focus on woodcock back here. Change of pace might be nice.

    Lab for grouse?

    I hunt my lab every year for grouse. When we are in the thick woods he hunts close. It took awhile for him to get it but now that he does it is a blast. I still have to remind him when he gets real birdy but I wouldn't hunt them without him. I love watching him charge through the woods. He has...

    Pheasant preserve recommendation

    Wild Wings in Campbellsport is reasonable. Little under two hours from Windsor. I used to shoot league there when I lived in Kewaskum. Still not the cheapest. http://www.wildwingssportsmansclub.com/hunting.html There was a place I went south of Madison in Orfordville. I can't remember the name...

    GSP or Lab?

    I found my lab is a better upland dog than waterfowl. He has a strong drive and while he is steady for waterfowl he wants to move. He is at home chasing grouse in the woods and pulling pheasants out of the thickest cover. The one question I have is do you want a pointing dog or flushing? I have...

    Let the season begin

    My opener did not turn out as good as I would have liked. Went out in the zoo on Sunday. Bandit got birdy a couple of times but nothing to show. When we got home he started to favor his front paw. Found a small but deep puncture. Cleaned it and a trip to the vet was in order. Vet got me in right...

    Sad day

    I haven't been around in a while and this was the last thing I hoped to see on my return. Loosing a dog is hard. It is one of those things you can't prepare for no matter how hard you try. Sorry for your loss.

    Woodcock

    Fenway, I took your post a very different way. I can see your point and apologize for jumping to conclusions. Words can be a tricky thing on a forum. With no verbal tone involved it can be easy to misinterpret. I can see woodcock being a great training tool for a pointer. They normally hold very...

    Woodcock

    Wow, Then you better sit down when I tell you I hunt them with my lab and waterfowl shotgun. Sorry I am not as privileged as you are in being able to hunt over a fine English Setter and I'm sure a fine English shotgun to boot. Elites attitudes like yours make me wonder why I even post on the...
