ND Pheasant Opener

Was lucky enough to get an invite up to ND last weekend for the opener of pheasant season. We had a blast and my Drahthaar was in heaven even after the 19 1/2 hour drive up there

If you ever get a chance I highly recommend making the trek up-

Here's a few pics

Bravo!! Love seeing the pics of these trips..

Dang, Justin. You killed them. I didn't know you were on here. Thought you were a tried and true stick slinger. I see you're still wearing that Waggoner cap.

Great looking dog!

Great pictures. 'Sounds like a perfect trip. I gotta get back up there.

I would love to take my cockers on a trip like that. That would be a blast and the weather looks just right when you were there. Congrats!

Those RuffTuff dog boxes are awesome also. I have 2 of them.

I have the week after Thanksgiving scheduled for vacation, may have to venture that way. I've been to SD but ND interests me.

Well done

LOL, yessir I'm a bit of a lurker over here

It's amazing what having a good bird dog will do to your hunting priorities, normally I'd be sitting in a tree stand instead of driving for 4 days to chase ditch chickens and grouse!

And yep the Waggoner cap has treated me well....that dude is poison to pheasants! I bet it has witnessed over 300 now meet their maker, you know where 200 of them were



Thanks, she's my first Drahthaar and definitely won't be my last.

Weather was primo, opening morning we woke up to this....

Nice. All private land?

Yessir, mostly corn, some canola and alfalfa hedge rows. We were about an hour NE of Dickinson.

We were supposed to be sleeping in York NE this evening on a trip to Gregory SD. Unfortunately the other 3 on the trip all cancelled on me.

that's great, thanks for sharing

Man that's a heck of a drive for a weekend. I hunt about 2 hours north west of Dickinson every year

those are awesome pictures to say the least

That looks like a great hunt!

Wow I bet that was fun. Heck of a time.

Did anybody talk about a good pheasant outfitter when you were up there?

Nice pics

I was wondering about the rainfall in that part of the world.
Did you see a lot of hens?
