Crazy. Get out there and get them.

Sorry it screwed up your hunt but I hope that wet weather is a sign of what to expect this spring banana


There is time, and you must take it, to lay your hand on your dog's head as you walk past him lying on the floor or on his settle, time to talk with him, to remember with him, time to please him, time you can't buy back once he's gone" GBE

If you only shoot birds that will die in next 4 weeks go for it otherwise but fun up and work dogs with pistol

If it isn't white it is not a birddog.

Lying is lying. Don't bitch about one doing it and condone another. That's called hypocrisy.

Twenty years ago hinted after 6” snow and found lots of birds cameback two weeks latter and that part of ranch had significantly less birds.
No other reason than death weather loss due to disturbing in very nasty weather

I had to help load and hoist that dang feeder last Saturday, he let the rope go to the top the tree. I stood on top of my mule, grabbed the rope and jumped. I probably looked like Tarzan.......

It was raining this morning so my hunt consisted of throwing a dog out on the road and following her with the truck. I only got out to shoot when she pointed. They could smell bird a long way this morning and I still ended up soaked to the thighs and didn’t chase any singles. Still some nice sized coveys for the last weekend.
