Re: kansas?????
All I can tell you is my buddy and I saw more birds than ever before, and all the guys I ran into were doing the same. Limits were common on pheasants, and we got into to 2-3 covies of quail every day. Hunted lots of WIHAs around Hodgeman, Kiowa, and Pawnee counties. Hunted 6 full days and only fail...

Re: Kansas 2009 = Great hunt
Thanks Bossman. I love Tritronics and love being able to activate the beeper function from the remote when a dog is lost in heavy cover on point. That said, I would change some things about the beeper itself if I had designed it. For one thing, it is a bit bulky. Would love a slimmer profile. Second...

Kansas 2009 = Great hunt
A buddy and I went to Kansas for a week for the opener and had a great time. We hunted exclusively public WIHAs and some private land the owners were kind enough to let us hunt for free. That said, we had good success on both. Its always nice to get that first bird in the bag, and here is a shot of ...

I have an original SBE that is great in moderate weather but if the temps get below 45, the action becomes a slow motion affair and turns my reliable gun into a single shot.
