ok, thanks

South Dakota

When do the folks at Fish and Wildlife post the results of their bird counts for this season? Where will I be able to find it? Thanks.

Nice write-up. I'd like to live in a beautiful area like that where I could head out anytime for a bird hunt. What part of MT is that? Are those German Wire Hairs? Dan

Nice mess of birds!

You will like it. I shot a Cordoba all during our skeet league here and did well with it. I then found a good deal on a Sport II and bought it. It definitely had more felt recoil with out the special recoil reducing stock found in the synthetic models. Both guns are excellent, but I like the...

The group I hunt with hunts private ground and we just returned this past Thursday. We did very well with limits everyday. The last day was the toughest but that is to be expected since we hunt the same places pretty much every day. I was worried the hail had impacted the bird numbers but...

We found four dead deer near Ipswich. We just assumed that they had been hit by cars and made it into the field to die but Blue Tongue actually makes more sense.

Astro 320. I think it picked up the dogs farther out that it is actually supposed to work. It was a relatively flat area.

ok, I guess it was just my mistake. Might make a longer trip next time!!

Last year I purchased a SD out of state license and I had to pick two separate five day periods. My brother just purchased a SD license on the phone yesterday and he was told that he could choose consecutive 5 day periods. Has the rule changed that a non-resident can hunt the entire 10 days...

I don't really see it as controversial. Game preserves all over the country release birds. I personally would not want to travel to SD to hunt released birds and that is why I pay to hunt some private ground. I am sure some of those released birds end up on state ground or private ground so...

Johnny, I might like to come visit Alberta one day. Both my parents were Canadian but were from Toronto. I have been to that side of Canada, but not further West than Manitoba. How hard is it to gain access to duck or pheasant hunt? Do the two seasons coincide well enough that you could...

softopper That soft topper looks neat but it does not look like there is anyway to really secure your gear. I suppose you could lock it, but a thief could just cut right through the material.
