I used one of these some years ago on a hard mouth dog it took a few times but got the job done

[quote="gonehuntin'"]The ecollar should sit high on the dog's head, directly behind the ears, receiver to the side. It should be just snug, not tight. Set the collar on high. When the dog takes of after a deer and you are CERTAIN, meaning you can SEE the dog chasing the deer, just hold the button do...

Bobs britts near Louisville. I believe he has some nolans last bullit breeding

I have never felt comfortable buying a pup and having the breeder tell me what I was going to do with the pup. With that in mind I do not make a big deal pout of what the people are going to do with the pup they buy from me. If I had my druthers I would like to see the pup hunted but I also know th...

Or you could just hide a piece of meat (hot dog, chicken, etc.) hide it and give the dog whatever command you want to use for hunt dead ( I just use "dead" or "dead bird" ). A few times of this and the dog will find your bird when given the command. Whatever method you choose, it shouldn't take lon...

I am fairly sure the parts for a 12 gauge will fit your standard 20. Might make your parts search easier. Brownells, Numrich, Ebay. If you come across an 870 standard 20 gauge barrel in your search give me a heads up. Also your dog in the avatar is absolutely handsome. Steve C. what barrel & choke ...

squirell & gravy very good

I think I'm getting myself into trouble by doing too much research! Because now, along with the Vizsla and Llewellin I'm also looking into the Brittany and the munsterlander. I don’t even know what to think about all of this talk I read of a pointing lab! I'm just looking for a fairly close ranging...

Ray, you read my mind right to the very word. I may not take offense at what they tell us to do but it just is another example of people in our government who become automatically more intelligent than the rest of us just from getting elected to a government position. Makes me wonder why we need sc...

i allso prefer chukar for training,but you need the rite kind of cover them to work good.

if the dog rode in the car before with no trouble then it's not car sickness. Quit throwing treat's, you are begging. Put the crate on the ground and teach her to get in on command. get a hold of her collar, tell her kennel and throw her in the crate. won't take long and she'll do it right. Now tak...

Are you planning on purchasing a puppy, started dog, or perhaps even a finished dog? Sometimes spending the money to get one that you can hunt right out of the box makes good sense and minimizes risk. You can see exactly what the dog is made of, how it hunts, obvious faults it may have, so on and s...

beautiful pup i like those markings,

I would check bushing drop weights of powder and shot first. Then check that double loads of either are not being dispensed. Then load formula for gauge and case. Then component match to load. Then wad pressure. Then fiddle with crimp adjustments, etc. could be wad preasure, not seatinng the wad go...

klewis

ron r does that total package dog go back to a dog named east movin dot?

klewis

Im 5-8 allso , I have been shoting ruger red lable the last 10-12 years. I have all 3 ga. but only use the 28 ga., because of the lighter weight .I cant tell any difference in my hit miss with the 28 vs. 20.
