southernhillskennel in Abilene, Brent Wilbur.

Good thing is i pass through Abilene everytime on my way to go hunting so i can stop in..

Well i dropped off my 8month old Brittany pup today at the trainers. I miss the little guy already!!! I didnt ever think i'd get attached this quickly...

I've already decided i'm going to stop by and see him on Sunday, let him know i didnt just abandon him lol...

Anyone else experience this?

I cant wait to get my first elk!

Great pictures everyone.

Peppered two pups yesterday afternoon while dove hunting. Walked up without a care in the world.....that changed quick!

They are thick as flies where i deer hunt, we shoot them anytime we see them.

The 720 and 712 have a good rep. from everything i've heard. I almost went with a 720, but got a woodcock deluxe instead. Honestly i still want one for bad weather. I'm sure the haters will be along ragging on the CZ/Huglu turk guns, but people that actually own them love them. (in fact a guy over o...

i have no idea, but just a thought!

You might check with some indian reservations..

I'm glad i cant keep my Brittany out of the bath tub. Literally he just goes and sits in the tub and looks at the faucet like..."wheres the water man?" Right now i'm putting his e-collar on without turning it on, he's on his second week...I'm hoping he'll just associate the collar with "happy happy ...

Seriously, let it go.

JWP58

Sorry, Mike, but I read your newspaper blogs. You don't need this dog. She isn't a media source. She's a living thing and you aren't doing right by her. Saying you're going to start hunting is a cop out. She's not ready to go hunting just because she finds birds. GSPs excel in many dog activities. ...

Does WY have a Dove season?

JWP58

I love both styles, SxS and O/U. Classicness of the SxS, Sexyness of O/U...

Love my CZ Woodcock Deluxe 20ga! But i REALLY want a CZ Bobwhite in 28ga..

JWP58

Ok thanks guys, i've already just started putting it on him when he goes out....with the collar off. I'll do that for a few weeks..

You dont have to use leg hold traps.....just sayin.

JWP58

Ok so i just got an e-collar yesterday and i've started using it on my 6month old britt. What i've been doing is putting him on a check cord and use commands he knows (ex. here, whoa, ect). I start by just using vibrate 90% he responds if he ignores me i nic him (on level 4..just enough for him to s...

For coons, a pile of corn, spotlight, .22lr rifle, bulk box of ammo.....blast the night away (IF LEGAL IN YOUR STATE...it is in Texas) For other varmints you can call (coons will come to calls too) or you could use bait (some sort of dead animal) and repeat the above formula. You could also set trap...

Awesome story!!

Makes me feel good since i'm trying to relocate to wyoming!

JWP58

Sage Grouse are the largest grouse right?

JWP58

I love the Pointing Dog Journal. Real classy magazine....great articles and pics.

JWP58

The wind i can handle, I've been out in west texas for the past 6yrs....lets just say the largest wind farm is just north of here for a reason. I would love to try grouse hunting, i'm a total newbie to upland hunting anyway so i'm all about trying to hunt everything i can. And i REALLY want to hunt ...

JWP58

Lucky!!!

I went out this morning and didnt see a single dove...in gun range. I shouldve done more scouting at the public spot i was hunting.

JWP58

Exactly!

But hey, this isnt going to get me booted from teh TGDC is it? lol

JWP58

As of now it looks like i'm about 90% sure i'm going to be moving to Wyoming. I'll be moving from Texas, dont get me wrong i'm a proud born and raised Texan but the summers are just ridiculous. I have a few reasons for moving, and to be honest hunting is one of them (public land and more birds/big g...

JWP58

i dont think 9 months is too young.

JWP58

Let us know how it goes, i live in abilene and have talked to another trainer in town (seemed gtg and a good guy) but i'd be interested to hear about other options.

JWP58

I have learned one thing from this thread.....

I need to go chukar hunting!!

JWP58

I crated (even though he knows it as kennel) my brittany puppy while at work and he was fine. Just make sure to get the pup a good solid hour of play and it will do fine in a crate for extended times. Honestly mine slept most of the time in or out of the crate. Now as for outdoor, most people leave ...

JWP58

This is great information! It reaffrims my belief that i need an e-collar. My 6month old brittany is getting to where "he knows best", and just flat out ignores me! I can see it in his eyes (and the fact he has responded properly like 1000 times), he knows exactly what "here" means, he just doesnt c...

I was at a stop light after dropping my girls off at school when i heard it on the radio, as i turned the corner i saw EVERYONE pulling off to the side of the road and knew that people were in shock and trying to make sense of what was happening..when i got home my husband was watching the t.v and ...

I am interested in finding a 20 ga shotgun with an english straight grip stock . Who is making english stocked shotguns now ? I cannot seem to find much other than very expensive guns . Thanks in advance for any and all replies ! I would say you need to look at the CZ Bobwhite in 20ga. SxS, English...

Seriously the old saying Time will heal the hurt.

LOL i almost spit all over my computer! I think the George Jones will just make it worse, nobody sings a sad song like "no-show"...

JWP58

beautiful dogs!

JWP58

he'll be 4 months old on the 18th

As of now he's just a goof ball puppy lol.

JWP58

It used to be farmers were very generous about letting people hunt their land but that has changed a lot in the last couple of years. I work as a communications officer at the jail and you would not believe the number of calls I get during hunting season concerning trespassing and poaching. Just ma...

Well took my Brittany pup to meet his trainer and put him on birds for the first time (i got to meet him for the first time too). Ace didnt "find" and of the planted birds per say (he did get pretty nosey around one). They got his attention when they came out of the launcher though, once he saw them...

JWP58

I'll say it. John Wayne wasnt anything special acting wise.

The latest version of True Grit is the best. Jeff Bridges is 10x the actor than the Duke ever thought of being.

I cant stand when people put John Wayne on a pedestal. Clint Eastwood and Robert Duvall are WAY better, so is Kevin Costner.

After walking my 3month old pup by a pond last night and seeing his reaction (would NOT get out of the water) eventually he might have a future as a duck dog lol

JWP58

I've wondered if anyone used a britt to duck hunt, guess that answers my question.

Anyone dove hunt with one? I mean its bascially the same as duck hunting minus the water...

JWP58

Ya i probably wouldnt drive there just to hunt the beaver wma, but since i'm going to be right there i guess i wont lose anything checking it out.

JWP58

Good read! So now i'm thinking i should introduce my puppy to some birds....

JWP58

He's been a very good puppy. No messes in the house, and sleeps good in his crate.

He does have a nipping problem, bites everything in sight!

JWP58

Dang, I guess nobody hunts it....atleast i can hope its low pressure.

JWP58

Got him from a guy that had a litter (i dont believe he's a breeder) down by Priddy, Tx. Jeff Schwartz

His sire is J&W's lucky remington, dam is J&W's lucky copper penny

Just picked up my 1st bird/gun dog! He's an 11wk old American Brittany. I had his pedigree, but now i cant find it...i do know down the ways a bit is both Tejas Iron Mike and Nolan's Last Bullet. He's bouncing off the walls due to the 2hr car ride, so this is the only decent pic i could get As of no...

I've got a guided pheasant hunt scheduled in January in the OK panhandle. I've been looking for some public land to try out (picking up my first pup today!) and the Beaver River WMA is only a few miles from my guided hunt, so i figured i might have a go at it. Anyone ever hunt this 17k acre WMA? Doe...

JWP58

By the way, my earlier post didnt make this clear but, i will not hunt with anyone that has been drinking or wants to drink while hunting. I value my life, and i dont want some moron sweeping me with a muzzle because he is loaded. When the guns are put away (in a case and out of sight) then and ONLY...

Take a look at some of the CZ's. Good SxS and O/U for the price.

JWP58

love britt pups!!

more pics are needed...

Why not? Variety is the spice of life..... Because in that game,I don't care about variety. I care about winning. I don't cheat, either in letter or spirit, but I do anything and everything else to get an advantage. It has now been 17 years since I shot my last season...and I still can't shoot skee...
