    Public land…🤬

    Slob hunters abound here in Montana. And guess what ... they are mostly LOCALS. You know they're locals by the county number prefix on their plates. Caught a local yesterday leaving a gate down on block management property and driving in past the orange sign that says no vehicle access. Fat...

    FWP Upland Gamebird Hunting Reg Meeting

    Yea, that's cause they immediately amended the original for the state wide delay. They are starting to get in the habit of offering amendments "during" the meetings. It's pretty obvious they have them prepped before but don't bring them up to avoid public comment.

    Dog photos: 3 easy objectives

    I own both parents. The sire is pure Airedale, the mother is the Shag. We had two litters, six pups on the first go, eight on the second. I regret to say I had the female spayed after the second batch. Right now I'm looking for a female to breed with Grizz. I have several fellow government...

    Started GSP

    Seven month old GSP male "Maverick" E-collar conditioned, introduced to gun fire and birds. Holds point well and will range close or far depending on how he instructed. Originally wanted to train him as a versatile gundog, but have realized a lab suits my needs much better. He does well for an...

    Boykin spaniel pros and cons

    One of my best buddies got one a little over a year ago. It is really an awesome dog. Super birdie. I was lucky enough to shoot her first pheasant over her. Unfortunately, I only winged it and she had to chase it down for a retrieve. She’s was only 8 months old at the time. I was very impressed...

    Is less more?

    Other than hunting about the only shooting I do with a shotgun is training birds for my dogs. Cats wiped me out of training birds a couple years ago and working on getting them back. Had a guy I trained a dog for was supposed to be one of the top skeet and trap shooter's in the state years ago...

    EOY ‘23 - What Worked, What Didn’t?

    What worked: The new ACL. Wasn’t sure if having this done in my 40’s was going to mean I would just have to deal with something less than 100%, or if it would be more painful than before after hard hunting. One year later, that hasn’t been the case and it’s felt as good as ever. Relining the...

    SB 388 Revising upland bird regs for Non Residents

    That’s exactly who this bill was intended for, IMO.

    Blind Retrieve Training: Casting Concept

    One of the basic concepts in casting is that the retriever should expect to change direction with each cast after the whistle stop. (Most cast-refusals are where the dog refuses to change direction) I like this little drill to teach and maintain that concept. Each cast is a successful cast...

    Eulogy for a friend

    Monday was one of the hardest days in recent memory. I was tasked with making the choice to end the life of one of the best friends I have ever had the privilege to share the woods with. It wasn’t a decision taken lightly. Some may say I delayed the inevitable, but I wanted to be 100% sure...

    Favorite upland loads?

    Thanks for all the continued responses! A bit of an update, a friend with a good bird dog decided he liked hunting with me so I got out a lot this fall for pheasants, both game farm birds (dog training) early on and then wild birds as the fall seasons opened. Never found any load I was looking...

    Family Trip to Alaska - Let’s Talk

    My family and I was just up there this past June and had a pretty good time. We started in Anchorage, went to Fairbanks (after my family picked me up in Talkeetna), then Back down to Anchorage, Seward, then over to Kodiak and then up to Utqiagvik (Barrow), and then home. A couple of notes: 1)...

    Best upland gun dog breed?

    Interesting, I've never seen a more intense or athletic dog that my GSP was. The only two setters I've hunted behind had moderate athletics. There may have been some field trial pointers over the years that were on her level, but I still don't think they had her speed and endurance though they...

    Young Bird Dog (hopefully)

    No idea if this is a global dog thing, but here goes. Ist Vizsla we rescued was surrendered by an owner who was too old to exercise Fred properly. During daily off leash walks in the desert we could see he was birdy. One day he jumped straight up and caught a meadowlark out of the air. Which...

    Racing Pigeons

    I have a loft of racing pigeons, but don't race. I use the bird for dog training. They are neat birds and I enjoy them way more than I thought I would. Started with 2 pair have about 25 now.

    First time uplander

    This is my first gun dog. So the test results blew my expectations out of the water. I have done all the training myself with the help of some great friends that know way more than myself. These dogs are one of a kind the drive to please their owner is amazing and the desire to be right by your...

    Best upland gun dog breed?

    Agree with above. E. Pointers bred for horseback trialing are the biggest running, most intense, 'best' pointing dog available - the sky is the limit, theyll run to the ends of the earth and hold point til the end of time if youll let them (which I agree with statement this can makes a lot of...

    Sunday Pic of the Day

    Had to put down an old dog. We called him blue, because of his blue eyes. He could not walk, see, or hear well anymore. Got him buried next to his brother "Rocky" who passed, two years ago. Got to looking at local pound dogs, and found the one. Someone did a night drop, could not afford their...
