I had to have mine in the garage when we were between homes. I had a Golden Rod and it worked perfectly. Matter of fact, the same Golden Rod is still being used 20 plus years later.

If you haven't found anything yet, have a look at Vintage Doubles.com. He has some very expensive guns and, some really great deals on affordable, unique guns. And, he's a pleasure to work with.

Made my first trip to hunt SD last week. We found ample state land and quite a few birds. We were impressed for our first trip.

I was in the Pierre area last week. Great weather! 81 on Monday last week? Anyway, we saw a covey of Quail a half hour east of Wall crossing the road. I'm not sure if that is their range but I've never seen them in SD before.

I got one earlier this year and I really like it.

Thank you Tim, If you ever head west and need some help, look me up.

Thank you Tim. As non-tox is being required more and more, I've decided to start using it exclusively on this trip. Thanks again for the reply, Don

Good morning, I am leaving tomorrow from Washington State. I have a question about the pink shaded areas in the atlas and the phone app. It says it is Bureau of Reclamation land and I can't find info on it's huntability? Could someone please explain that area to me? Thank you, Don

gjw, I was wondering what you have found out? I'm shopping for a vest right now and there are so many styles and options that I can't make my mind up. And, for what they cost, I'd rather not make a mistake!

When I moved to Washington State 30 years ago it was a requirement. I came from Oregon where it wasn't required. The first couple years I felt like a dork wearing an orange vest. I have come full circle, now when I hunt Idaho (no orange required) I wear orange. I feel safer, I can see others...

I see I'm a little late here but Pointing Labs are getting popular in the N.W. Tiger Mtn Pointing Labs in Ellensburg Washington puts out some amazing dogs.

Thank you At the Murph, I picked up an Uggie Falcon 20 gauge at a local gun show Saturday. Vintage 1971, it was carried a lot but still super tight. It was being carried around by an older guy and I got it for 200.00. I hope to get out this week and shoot some.

This has been interesting reading. I have always used 12's. The other day a friend brought out his Rizzini O/U 20. I loved it and now want an affordable 20 gauge ( the Rizzini was a bit spendy for me). Thanks for all your input.
