Has anyone hunted woodcock in OK?
I seen one couple years ago while deer hunting, the only one I've ever seen. Couldn't believe my eyes honestly.

My SM is 11 months old, I've took him hunting 4 or 5 times since November each time killing 6-12 birds. The first couple times got 5 or so points on coveys ( usually 3 of us hunting, 10 bird limit ). No single bird points. I chalked it up to being hot and dry the first couple hunts ( before first fr...

Just looking to see how many SM are around

I appears that I stirred the pot a bit .... Maybe I worded that poorly ... My SM has bird drive, he hunts for the bird, I just haven't seen much point yet I know he needs time to develop.. I was just simply trying to use the poor flying quail in a fun way to get birds in his mouth. As well as work o...

Will it harm my 15 week old pointer to plant pigeon and allow him to go hunt the bird.

The bird flies and goes back to the loft.

He's very birdie and loves searching for the bird.

I have a small Munsterlander, this is my first pointer. I have trained a couple labs for waterfowl so that's what I know. My SM is 13 weeks old and he sits, stay and fetches well. He loves the pond and likes water retrieves. Question Is : Example:: I toss a bummer in the tall grass and send him to r...

I was looking at his prey drive .
I do not do this more than once.

Got my new hunting buddy today.

Hello, I have just recently purchased a small munsterlander for a dual purpose dog (upland/waterfowl). I built a loft for training pigeons and the birds I've gotten are feral birds from a local arena. Any tips or FYIs would be appreciated. I've hunted labs for serval years doing the training myself ...
