Sorry Mountaineer, but the pheasant populated itself across most of the U.S. before the coming of the preseves, and bird ranches. And sorry but Im not going to get into with some jackwagon either that wants to respond to this thread, but sorry your right there is help of releasing and the State of S...

I understand the frustration!!! I have a black and white GSP and every body says " I didnt know Dalmations hunted", or even better " How come you docked your labs tail?" when they see my sloid black GSP or when I had my solid liver GSP. Godbless the uninformed.

Well the ringneck is not native to North America, they were brought here in small numbers yet have populated them selves and can be found through out most of the U.S., not all but most. Are chicks here are born in late May early June, usually you see month old chicks when the combines are rolling at...

I hear you Fester, 90% of the time I guide for a preserve, and not to much for myslef. But this year I have turned down 44 hunters to guide for myself on all of my leases and this being the awful year for birds and I have the number of people that have called me, when I have averaged maybe 8 to 12 g...

I have done pheasent and quail releasing projects over the years. You can do it all you want but you have to release them into habitat, into spring wheat fields, draws, tree rows ect... Here is a tid bit for you a pheasant will range approximantly up to 2 to 3 ,miles from where there are hatched. Th...

Well I have heard it both 100 and 300, and sorry I was off 20 years, never the less the most prolifect concur of any mammal on earth. My point being they cover this continent from almost one end to the other. And no special release in Kansas. They will survie, but we need to help them.

I am 36 years of age and have been hunting the great state of Kansas since I was 8 years of age, I'm a professional guide now and love what I do. I sit on the Pheasents Forever Board of the local chapter. I to actaully have to agree it wouldnt hurt me if that took the limit to 3 aday even 2 if it ha...

Well actually, the next breed that is close to them is a Weimer, both dogs where bred with more hound in them for being a dog that was part of the family or "pack". I have seen problems withthem if they get shocked for what ever reason, they seem to get Butthurt and then they heal click cuase they t...

tfbirddog2

Pantyhose, keeps feathers laying flat. then into the freezer.

tfbirddog2

I agree, Cabelas has great service! Other than how fast they process an order any more is about the only complaint you will get out of me.I had a jacket I bought from them and they warrantied it after I had worn it and it started coming apart at the seem they sent me a new one no charge!

tfbirddog2

"The Ultimate Birddog Training Book" by Jerome Robinson I believe is the author great book will help alot, but ready lots of books and come up with your style of what you want.

tfbirddog2

Nice show! I cant get mine to load seem to be having computer trouble. But like how you did yours!

tfbirddog2

i have bred my dogs with temperment in mind, due to if I think the dog is worth breeding to another their hunting style must be what is catching the eye of the beholder( myself). I like the houndish, very loyal laid back family dog that is all business and desire in the field! So far so good!!!

tfbirddog2

Most of Central Kansas, good fishing, waterfowl, and great upland. Nothing wrong with where I am in the state but, Central has more quial,p.chickens, and pheasants with the waterfowl thing too.

tfbirddog2

I have heard of a lot of places that are kennels and breeders and such dont start training till the pup is 18 months old, IMO I think you are losing critical time of the learnning and imprinting stages of pups. I mean I have read many books over the years that say riding in a car/truck going up and ...

tfbirddog2

So sorry for your loss! Thoughts and prayers are with you!

tfbirddog2

Only other breed I have seen do it is a Lab.

tfbirddog2

20 or 28 ga. o/u you can get CZ or Stoeger for a pretty nice price.

tfbirddog2

I'd say there is a female in heat somewhere, all the males I have been around do that when a female that is hot or has just came out do.

tfbirddog2

Well hope for some white stuff for you and for me by then.

tfbirddog2

I havent had a problem with Cabela's rough neck pants in the ten years I have used them, Columbia's have been good too.

Thanks, I guide professionally, so a pup or young dog with me dosent take long to get the gears all linked up a running. Best part of the thing is she retrieves to hand and doesnt play keep away, last dog to do that was her grandmother.By the end of March of our season and she will be steller!

tfbirddog2

Larned, and Meade are DRY and have been, was thru there a few weeks didnt look good! You can pm me if you want.

tfbirddog2

I would take you out, but trying to leave all my ground that I have acsess alone, birds are here, but till it gets cold it wont be worth the time and effort they are just to spread out cuase of the temps and year we have had.

As far as posting pics other than here I have them posted, cant get pic to pos...

Well thank you for you responses, first I bought the pup with thoughts I would breed him with one of my females, but have decided not to. Well actually he is finished to hunt, , but I have been told I dont have or sell finished dogs, becuase they are not steady, wing to shot. But he is finished to m...

I currently have a dog for sale listed a few places here included. I have had inquries about him, nobody from here, mainly from my area. Here is the question I pose to who ever comments.

My oldest is 10, bought her first dog 4 years ago f...

What dont you like about unloading it? I have a Extrema and not a fan of the unloading set up, but to me (IMO), its the last of my worries when the gun has only slitely malfunctioned one time, but havent complained it was -4 below zero, shot a light load and it was just slow as malasses to throw it ...

Pintail is the Walmart Berretta.But have yet to see one problem out of that gun.

I not thinking it should be good, they havent had much to any rain down there!!! I was thru S central Ks, last week and they were already cutting corn. So you might want to look else where in my home state. You may call the local Ks Dept of wildlife and see what they say.

tfbirddog2

Oh yeah boys, lets also not forget, when they inacted the Predator Bird Act in the late 70's bird pop. dropped.No controll of hawks, and owls is a big factor on bird pops too, not just coons and yotes. Reading a article a few years ago is said in the state of Kansas 2 redtailed hawks for every squar...

tfbirddog2

Ok, Slayer not wanting to turn this into one of those post, but I know what I know and I will leave it at that. But being a local board member of P.F. no chapter is to release any birds, exception to youth hunts and that must be on private or controlled shooting.

tfbirddog2

They release birds in S.D., just call Macfarland hatcheries. I know a game farm that delivers there about next month! And its not to a lodge its for the state!
