i've got mine and my dog's first ever pheasant i'm wanting to get mounted. I'm going with a standing pose but what are everyone's opinions on the tail feathers? i've seen everything from 1 o'clock to 3 o'clock and the one above seems to be about 4 o'clock.
I usually feed twice a day. when we are doing bird work in the morning or trials i just feed once at night. When we've had a long day of training/trialing i usually mix water and/or canned salmon in oil with his food to promote feeding.
I've been planning my dad, my GSP, and I's first wild bird hunt (ever) to Kansas for about 6 months now. Pretty much everyone that has shown interest (and has a dog) the past couple months is unable to go. We are doing WIHA only hunting in and around the Hays and Lacrosse area (got a house in...
i've used victor since 2012. saw the recall Thursday and we have about a week's worth left in the bag. went ahead and ordered the inukshuk marine 25 friday through Chewy and it showed up on Saturday. so we'll see how it goes.
i had heard that Victor sold to a new company and that might be the...
In every instance, it’s an immediate response. Collar, no collar, yard, field, etc. just apparently not when he’s 6 feet from the bird and I’m kicking brush not to his liking. Lol. At one trial his snap lead came off his tie out post. I didn’t notice till I saw him making a bee line to the...
i have heard someone say that the "terrible 2's" were the same for dogs as it was for kids. i didn't know if it was a joke or them being serious. i'm hoping its just a phase.
when we do yard work i usually use no collar and leave the check cord on him he'll hold it all day and i'll throw hats...
i've got a 2.5 y/o male GSP and he has a really good nose. we don't have wild birds here so most of our bird work is either in the training field or in NSTRA trials all with planted quail/chukar. the issue i'm running into is that whenever the e-collar is on he's the perfect dog. holds point...
i see the water bladder but didn't see a water filtration device for the bladder? are you using the steripen on the nalgene and pouring it in the bladder? might want to look into a quick disconnect attachment for the bladder to make filling it easier. or run an in-line filter.
Really curious of the draw report. When does that usually come out? I applied for unit 67 archery. Was 20% with 3 points last year and I had 4 points this year and was unsuccessful on 1st choice.
Thanks to a member here I got a 16 matching my criteria. Might still be on the lookout for a 20 too as a backup or for buddies that want to go hunting. So I’ll do one more bump.
My favorite little bird gun has bit the dust. Gunsmith has advised it'd cost more to fix than the gun is worth. And a whole lot more to restore it. So the market being what it is now for new firearms looking to see if anyone has an old side by side shotgun they'd be willing to part with it. My...
I've never actually applied for a tag in CO. always just preference points. this year i actually put in for a unit and am curious if there is a backdoor on the results like there is for NM? or will we really not know till May 24-28 like the website says?
