    Hunting the Panhandle

    Black Kettle Hunted black kettle Sat. morning. Only found one covey with about 6 birds. Couldn't see my dog, who was on point about 75 yards away. I found him when I saw the birds flush and fly across the road to private land! It sure warmed up quick that morning, so not the best scenting...

    Hunting the Panhandle

    OK-Setter, thanks for the advice on sandy sanders. I don't need to put my dog through that pain, since he tangled with a porcupine earlier this month at black kettle. Took 3 hours to pull the quills out of his chin, mouth, chest and legs. He found another one the next morning and kept his...

    Dog friendly hotel/motel in Liberal, Ks

    I recommend the Days Inn in Liberal. Stayed there last season and it's a really nice place. Felt a little strange taking the dog through the lobby and up to the room at such a clean hotel, but they don't mind a bit. Here's the address and phone #: Days Inn Liberal KS 405 E Pancake On Hwy 54...

    Liberal Area

    We had a group of 4 hunters and 1 dog hunt the Liberal area this past Friday through Sunday and brought home 19 birds. The wind was howling on Friday, so we really only had 2 days of good weather. Hunted one WIHA and a couple of private places. Some spots had good numbers of birds and found...
