Re: Hunting Boot Battle
I've never met a serious bird hunter that wanted his boots to have insulation. If you want to take care of your feet... don't get a pair of good boots. Get a couple pair. I rotate between Danner Pronghorns, Irish Setter somethings, and a pair of the RedHead Uplander II's. Change them up along with s...

One is a challenge... one is not... A great wild bird hunter can/will always be succesfull as a pheasant preserve... and great pheasant preserve hunter will not always be succesfull hunting wild birds.

Re: First time out - going for Sharptail and Partridge in ND
Welcome to the addiction!
The best part about owning a gun dog is everything really boils down to your expectations. Just because someone hunts with more of a "meat dog" than a highly polished/finished dog doesn't mean the trips are any less fun.

Re: First time out - going for Sharptail and Partridge in ND
Not purposely hi-jacking the thread but.... I am a little confused.. after a 7 week training program your dog would bump/flush into a pigeon launcher and then the trainer would pop the bird and reward the dog for a non-point? Anyone who's been around enough dogs training knows that some dogs don't c...

Re: 1 Dog for Wild Birds
In relation to hunting behind pointing dogs... To me it all depends on how the birds are being hunted. Sticking with "field birds" - I would say it all depends on the group compisition. If one or two guys are out hunting the prairie, I don't see the need to exceed 2 dogs. If 5-6 guys are out pushing...

Re: Rooster Trip in South Dakota
When we originally started traveling to areas that (luckily) wasn't easily researched via the internet... we actually would call local restaurants and gun/hunting shops. Most small towns still have "off the map" lodging available.

Knowing general forum etiquette... and breaking the cardinal sin of having a first post involve asking a question, I promise to post a formal introductory thread tonight. Quick question (since I see I can't PM the original person who started the topic). We are making our annual trip to ND (Michigand...
