For the three species you are interested in you might try the Weiser or Brownlee areas along the Snake

Not with pheasant but definitely numerous times with chukar

Set out the decoys and was limited in 45 minutes opening morning. Hunted another field this evening and took me 2 hours to limit. Just got through eating dove and jalapeno poppers, mmmmm

2dogs

Here in Idaho I scout freshly harvested grain fields for a few days before season and see which ones the birds are feeding in. Their prime activity time is the first couple hours of daylight and the best time is from about 4 till 5:30 pm. We set up a Mojo dove decoy and a couple ground feeder decoy ...

Have noticed that around here when hunting doves in the grain stubble fields that they are way more likely to fly around and feed when it's warm and dry rather than when the ground is wet. Good luck.

2dogs

Very nice. We went out opening morning for dove and limited out in 35 minutes but lets not talk about how many shells it took

. Were the blues up real high?

2dogs

They were all over us this morning. Shot my limit of 10 within 35 minutes. Sure like those spinning wing decoys. How did everyone else do?

2dogs

Nothing better for the first week or so of dove season. Stick them in a straw bale still sitting in the field and the birds try to land on the darn things.

2dogs

Wondering about any reviews, negative or positive on the quilomene strap vest and how well it would work for an all day chukar hunt.

2dogs

Was wondering if I can get just a beeper to go on a collar since I already have a TT G3 and don't really want another collar.

2dogs

Have 5 grain fields scouted out and three of them are thrashed already. Been noticing this week that instead of seeing doves in pairs I am seeing them in bunches of 6-8. Man I can't wait, I have a 1 year old GWP that this will be her first dove hunts. If it is anything like the past few years we wil...

2dogs

Depends on the temperature. When chukar hunting early season generally about 3 hrs. or so, done by noon when it gets hot. Later in season will go 4-6 hrs.

2dogs

Very cool. That is an awesome way to capture the memories.
Thanks for letting us view it.

2dogs

One problem I've found with the 7 1/2 shot is that the lighter shot is effected more by the wind than the heavier 6's I usually use

2dogs

OMG too funny! Does that pad cote really work?

2dogs

Crashola, that's a fine looking dog in your avitar. Where did you get it?

2dogs

Oh man, amazing shot. You can see it in their eyes.

2dogs

Not as of yet but it's still real early. Not seeing as many huns either but I've only hunted 2 spots so it's too early to tell but it was a real wet and cold spring

2dogs

Actually it is a Wire Hair, just a longer haired one!

2dogs

She really is a bit fuzzy eh. i was just glad to see that she can still do it considering she had ACL surgery this spring and is not back to 100% ( and probly never will be)

2dogs

Had a good opener today, I shot my limit and my buddy took his six month old pup and ended up only one bird shy of his limit

2dogs

Trying to remember how to post pictures, here is my wire hair on a cold duck hunt with ice on her face

2dogs

Thanks Donf, I will try it when I get home from work.

2dogs

I need help learning to post pictures, I go to my pictures on photo bucket and try and highlight the image line so I can right click and hit copy but when I click on the image line to try and highlight it --it says copied and won't highlight

2dogs

2dogs

We got grouse openeing on Tuesday and dove on Thursday. Man am I ready

2dogs

Ha Ha Ha, You nailed it Scott!

2dogs

Ha, got ya beat, I'm on my 3rd set of stocks for my gun! I have amazing balance

2dogs

When I first started chukar hunting I was told the first thing you do is take your favorite gun your going to hunt with and just throw it down in the rocks very first thing so when you fall while chasing them birds(and you will) the scratches won't bother you any more

2dogs

I do alot of chukar hunting and have always loved Danners but the last couple of pair that I had didnt hold up as well and the waterproofing failed the first winter hunting in snow. Seems since they quit making the Grouse and some other models in Oregon and out sourced them the quality of material i...

2dogs

Great start to what should be a fun season for you.
ps. I can't remember hoew to post pictures can you refresh my memory

2dogs

Thats quite the "doggy camper" on your quad!

2dogs

I end up chukar hunting alone most of the time, not by choice but one hunting buddy moved and the other one lost his dog and thinks he is to old to get another so its either hunt alone or don't hunt chukar and we know that's not an option! I do generally let someone know the general area I will be a...

2dogs

Way cool picture of teenagers learning. You can almost here what they are saying to each other, "I saw it first- "no, I did"-"uh uh, I saw it first"

2dogs

Wow! What a pretty girl, bet you can't wait for season this year.

2dogs

Not to hijack this thread but I have a similar problem with a different twist, my 2 year old GWP retrieves well but just as she gets a couple of feet from me she will start munching the bird-she only seems to bite down on it once she gets close to me. I have turned around and started walking away fr...

2dogs

Now thats tough punishment for hard work! Hope the punishment fits the crime, enjoy your penalty day

2dogs

You know, I've been looking for the escalators in them thar hills but they must hide them pretty good! Those rotten chukars are addictive- I used to be a hard core waterfowler and then I shot my first chukar and got a pointer and have burned a whole lot of gas since but it is heart stopping to watch...

Don't count on snakes being gone in October, I have been "buzzed at" in late November (after Thanksgiving)

2dogs

Hey, they say good things come in threes, that means onr more to go.

2dogs

Has anyone tried Pad Guard or Tuff Pad with any success? Even though my dogs are run up and down gravel trails in the canyon several times a week all summer and also roaded by my bike on pavement they still get cut and sore pads on the lava while chukar hunting so short of booting them (which I'm no...

2dogs

Gotta love that jewelry, around here it's hard to come by. Was it a water or land retrieve?

2dogs

Well go get em then! And don't spare the pictures when you report back. Good luck

2dogs

I think I would go nuts if we had to wait till November to start hunting! Next years going to be bad enough since they are taking 2 weeks of season away from us and we can't start till Oct. 1st.

2dogs

Just learning how to post pictures and thought I would show my "2 Dogs".
It was way hot on the opener but the dogs did ok till about noon.

2dogs

Blueblood,
Does your GWP hunt closer in as they say the Griffon does or is it rangier like my shorthair? How is their personality and house manners? Do they socialize with other dogs well?
Thanks for the input.

2dogs

Thanks for the input Donerhund, I was actually looking at a 3 month old female GWP the other day but I'm just not sure yet.

2dogs

Wow! Now you have really given me something to consider.
I think I will try and set up a visit to Bob Farris's kennel the next time I get to Boise.
Unfortunutley, I'm afraid his dogs might be out of my price rang and hard to get a hold of.

2dogs

Hello all-been a member for a couple of years but just lurking in the back ground listening and learning. I am in need of some info, I currently hunt with two different dogs-a lab and a shorthair. Here's my dillema, my lab needs to be retired and I want to eventually get back to hunting everything w...

:D Wow, what awsome hunting I've had the past two weekends. Limited out on chukkars on Saturday and limited out on ducks onSunday for the past two weekends in a row!! Works out great that way so I can work my GSP on one day and the labrador gets excersized the next. Just wanted to brag a little, tha...
