    2026-2027 Upland Bird Thread

    How many times can I go to the well on this piece of public??? Well apparently a third time this week. Got one this afternoon. Should have got the second but they again proved they have slightly more intelligence than I do. My labs split. One left. One right. Both birdy. Picked the birdiest...

    2026-2027 Upland Bird Thread

    Hunted for a little over an hour and got my 2. The second one had nice spurs! Great dog work once again. Just a beautiful day to be out with the dogs. I think they enjoy it more than I do, if that is possible!

    Gonna head out today for a little pheasant hunting again. Nice weather after about 6 days of rainy weather. I will report back with results! 37 degrees, sunny and 10 mph winds.....awesome weather!

    2026-2027 Upland Bird Thread

    I always have a goal to shoot a MN public land rooster. Goal accomplished. The first couple outsmarted me by flying on the opposite side of bushes. But by applying every bit of brain capacity I have, I got the third one. Well okay. Truth be told, it was my labs who outsmarted it. But I didn’t miss!

    Leaves should be down in northern MN. Still a few clinging on in west central MN. Saw a woodcock hunting last roosters last week. Weather is going to get cooler on Sunday, which will be fantastic for your hunting. Maybe a little moisture, but nothing in our forecast to suggest a washout.

    Been out four times. Got 2 roosters twice, didnt even see a bird twice. In all fairness, the last time I didnt see a bird got cut short as my son's truck water pump and serpentine belt gave up the fight on the freeway and hour and a half from home. Pulling an enclosed trailer. Was a busy night.

    Upper Midwest Bird Camp 2026

    Beautiful walk today. Totally fruitless in terms of birds, but saw a really big whitetail buck at ohhhh, 12 feet. 150"+. Interesting where I jumped him. He was unapproachable from about 350 degrees, but I took a weird route and was in the 10 degrees he couldnt see, hear or smell. For a...

    Following. What are your accommodations? Tent? Hotel? Cot under the stars? Instead of a walk, I will bring my labs out on a short pheasant hunt today. Absolutely love this time of year.

    Thinking about getting a pellet grill

    How low does it go? That is the one thing I wish my Traeger did was go lower than 165 degrees.

    Yeah, but what is the warranty?? J/K Nice find. You will love it. Everything comes out so much more tender.

    So, how is the retirement gig?

    Congrats. I am always happy to hear of retirements. Curious how you decided that now was the time? Why not last month or next month or next year?

    Baked beans.

    Did I get it right that you haven't elk hunter with those fellers before? And you are feeding them beans? Risky. Best of luck to your nose.

    Marketing is hard

    I have to admit, my best hunting wear has kept me warm on those early track meets. Man, they can get cold. Wonder if I should buy one of those sleeping bags with armholes for $XXXX to keep me warm? Do they make them with a Cardinal emblazoned on the front to show off my school pride?

    Best meat analog for pack training?

    Wood pellets for your pellet grill. Cheap. Work perfect and only give out a woodsy smell.

    The big 18 and adult things?

    Didnt read the thread, so not sure if this was mentioned, but pick your friends and who you hang out with very, very carefully. I have heard it said you are the average of the 5 people closest to you.

    Anyone else getting antsy?

    I didn't like reading this and really hope you can regain your passion. Maybe include a friend or youth somehow? Go to the local archery club and mingle with avid hunters and archers? You don't want to look back on this and regret not putting forth a great effort on a great tag! Maybe watch...
