    Well said! And if all else fails look for good cover near a food source.

    Thanks for the advice SpringCreek. Do you run a guide service or lodging outfit in the area?

    Hill City Advice

    I usually hunt WIHA for the opener with no problems from large crowds, but maybe Hill city is different, I don't know. I would think being so far away from a major city and the lack of hotel accommodations (I think there are only a few motels anywhere close by) would limit hunter numbers, but...

    Hill City Advice

    I am thinking of heading to Hill City for the opener this year, I wanted to hunt somewhere I have never hunted before and heard good things about this area. My plan is just to hunt walk in with a couple of my buddies and my GSP. However, I have talked few people about Hill City and have been...

    Hunting Sports Plus

    The only problem that I have with the hunting clubs is that it's one price for everything. They won't customize a package for you and what you like to hunt. I don't hunt deer, ducks, or turkey, and I am not big time fisherman. So for me to pay $1200 just for upland hunting for three months a...

    Why does KDWP lease some of the ground they do

    I have that app, and in terms of species, the area's I looked at, it did not seem very accurate. Of course I did not walk every inch of the property so who knows. And maybe the land was different way back when the agreements were signed. I would like to know where, when, and how this info was...

    Why does KDWP lease some of the ground they do

    I am totally with you on this. At least half of my hunting days this year have been spent driving from one cow pasture to another. I understand everyone's "look on the bright side" comments as well, but remember we the people of KS pay to hunt this land. And I don't care how much the payments...

    Recommendations for GSP trainers in the state

    I meet Jim Lyons, owner of Lyons Den Kennels in Kingsville MO, when pheasant fest came through KC. I had a GSP pup at the time and looking for a trainer. His operation was sound, and the training went very well. The price was also very fair in my estimation. He used live pigeons and quail to...

    Evolution of pheasant hunting in SW Kansas

    All due respect, I kinda think many of us do help farms make their payments in the form of farm subsidies.

    Range for a Kansas Bird Dog?

    Sounds great, but I have been letting her release on the flush for three years, and her trainer did the same before then. I think it would be difficult to reverse it now. The only time I ever hunt with a group is opening day. Letting a young dog learn in the field these last few years has been...

    Range for a Kansas Bird Dog?

    I think it is combination of all of these things. In all honesty I think I am just to loud. She is trained to a whistle but I think switching to a silent whistle will help but I have not tried yet. I have also used a bell and now a beeper collar to keep track of her because I have lost track of...

    Range for a Kansas Bird Dog?

    Thank you all for your replies and advice. So this is a bit of a newbie question, but do you let a dog the ranges out work a field differently than one that works close? if I let my dog range out (as seems to be the consensus on this board) should I just kind of follow her where she wants to go...
