    Wyoming now after federal lands.

    Flood emails and phones of your elected officials. Get ahead of public land issues at least the next 18 months to 2 years. More then ever we need to make sure our elected officials answer to us and not a party or a billionaire

    Upland hunting in the cold and snow

    Here's a question for you.....I too have house dogs that hunter, I run brittneys though. They are trained to hunt good enough for me by me. What do you feel makes a better hunting dog, an outside kennel dog or a house dog? I've heard both sides. I've had both personal i i think my dogs now are...

    Upland hunting in the cold and snow

    There alot of evidence that says that too, and what says a predator doesn't bump them either. I just like to hear what other people think. I feel like seeing other states and regions hunting ethics is interesting.

    Upland hunting in the cold and snow

    I read and talk to biologist where they've said when the curst forms it a problem for many species besides pheasants , like many grouse species. Not only because of the food thing but they can't barrow in the snow so exposure and predation increases too. But I general don't shy away from...

    Upland hunting in the cold and snow

    I have brittneys they do good in cold, but the 3 I have now hate snow and ice in there paws so I've had to get them some bootys which helps them out alittle bit. But I dont think there the biggest fans of them the only reason they let put boots on them is they love to hunt and forget about them...

    Upland hunting in the cold and snow

    Pheasants are what I've typically go after in the cold and snow, i always tend to find them in thick CRP on south face slopes getting some sun and within a short flight to food. I have a few friends that always say upland hunting in snowy cold conditions is horrible for birds. Which there's...

    Upland hunting in the cold and snow

    I'll select spots due to temps here in KS just because of the high quail mortality in every cold temps. If I do happen to get on quail in extreme cold temps, I won't chase them. I dont shy away from pheasants or prairie chicken in the cold.

    San Diego to N. Nevada (Chukar/Huns)

    I've attempted Ptarmigan before. As wierd as it sounds it wasn't a real serious attempt. My wife's a rock nerd so I took the dogs a look did a little walking around while she was rock hunting. I'm most definitely going to do it again and dedicate more time it. It was good to find some good...

    Upland hunting in the cold and snow

    What is your alls view on hunting birds in the extreme cold and or snow? I know it depends on species, for instance I general won't target quail below 30 degrees (I know 30 isn't extreme cold) cause of high mortality rates they have in colder temperatures. But also long as conditions aren't...

    San Diego to N. Nevada (Chukar/Huns)

    Looks like an awesome trip! Upland hunting Northern Nevada is on my bucket list. You ever thought about hunt snowcock in the Ruby Mountains? I know it a bit of jog east of winnemucca but it's called the holy grail of upland.

    Wyoming Ruffies chakars and Huns questions

    upland strap vest recommendations?

    This is my 3rd final season with my final rise. I love it. The shell pockets are alittle deep but that's a very minor issue compared to my old cabelas vest. My buddy has a chief upland and he loves it. But he only bird hunts 2 or 3 times a year too.
