Won’t be much help. But my springer is the same way on pheasants. I’ve seen her be birdy as hell and won’t give up on spots I’ve already seen the birds fly out. She just can’t shake it. Most of the time when eyes really working an area and it is pretty determined it ends up being an elusive hen...

It’s pretty damn cool. Some videos I’ve seen of them tracking mountain lions are a blast. And definitely a risk with it like you said. You just gotta have a very large price of property to do it or else you can pretty much garuntee the dogs will be on private property, and surely they are...

also we are in full blown winter here. I’ve got lots going on right now so I’ve barely hunted unfortunately, and this weather is just making it tougher to sneak out.This website is giving me some fixes but probably not the pup unfortunately. I’ll get out a few times more hopefully. Might have...

I did a group of 8 once this year. Didn’t care for it at all. Different walking speeds, different approaches to hunting, walking at different angles. Really bothered me when someone would fall behind or get ahead and didn’t seem to pay attention to the others. “ party hunting not really my thing...

So. I am for all types of hunting. Dogs even better. Watching videos of hounds working is freaking awesome. But.. there seems to be a thing with hound hunting where some people think it’s acceptable for the hounds to be on private land because you really can’t control them on a trail. I very...

Won’t know until you have the opportunity too. Might end up liking it

You should probably do it if it’s free man. Seems like a wasted opportunity. You can decide if it’s lame or not after. You wouldn’t be out much.

I’ve also seen land that was marked as a new WMA on onX. Even had a new parking lot made in it. But it was completely covered in pretty intimidating no trespassing signs. Sometimes things can get weird. Especially with newer land acquisitions or if things are in limbo. I would definitely be more...

long time ago I hunted some newly acquired private land by DU and pheasants forever. Sandwiched in between public and private I had access too. Had family that played a role in the sale. No signs or nothing. It was awesome. Game warden stopped me one day and asked who owned it haha. Still a...

We have had some sub zero. It’s full blown winter out there where I am at as far as I’m concerned

That’s actually not too bad. Sweet gun.

I thought about the a400 too but it’s not a light gun. I’m sure it’s tough as hell but didn’t want to carry it all day, would kind of defeat the purpose of a new 20 gauge for me

I got a Franchi affinity 3 auto 20 this fall. Would highly recommend

It’s amazing how many guys are afraid of the big bad city of Minneapolis haha always cracks me up

I used one for a bit last season, forgot I did that until this thread. It was a bit annoying but I liked it. My dog is tiny and fast and can slip away easily if she’s hot. I honestly don’t remember if it changed the outcome of my hunts at all. I’m gonna look for it and start rocking it again...
