KCMO is not bad, I live on the kansas side and there is lots and phez and quail within 3hrs for phez and 1 or 2 for quail. I have heard southern Idaho is pretty good.

About 5-6 months ago I started my lab on single tee, it blew up in my face! Everyone told me it was because I did not use a proven method, so I got Evan Grahams book and with a year old lab started from ground zero and redid everything acording to his method. Everything went amazing! Now for the pas...

You know what I mean but Ill rephrase it anyway.

Does that english setter have llewellin blood lines in it?

bean1031

Most types of retrievers can compete in AKC and HRC hunt tests, another test to consider is NAHRA feild tests. They consist of retrieving and upland tests together. For instance for there Working retriever or intermedate level it consists of marking, blind retrieves and a quartering test. http://www...

In the next year or so I will be doing my eagle project for boyscouts. I have pretty much made up my mind on a quail restorataion project for my surrounding areas. I have a few questons mabey a few of you could answer. 1) What system should I use to realese the quail? The surrigator and the covey ba...

I use 5s, but thats just because the heaverloads dont make a difference with hitting percentages with me!

Last season I made a shot on pheasent with eights at 70 yards and killed it! That same hunt I made a 100 yard shot on a pheasent with buck shot! But thats just me!

bean1031

thats way cool!

Are there any AKC retriever hunt tests coming up in KC?

Do scalies hold good or are they known for running, like gambles and blues. Is there a lot of public walk on ground down there? How about sharptails or prairie chicken? Would not be a huge drive for me, I am about 30 miles from Lincoln Ne. If you live in Co. there is a chance you are a Buffs fan, p...

Eaglerock, I do not see that this group need preaching. Its nice to know whats going on as far as issues are concerned but there is little need to preach to an audience that are very knowledgeable about most issues and already know how they feel about them. We need to be preaching to the non-believ...

Definetly hands down get one! Anything by Evan Graham is amazing! He does not brush over anything and there is no confusion on what to do for you or the dog! It really is amazing!

bean1031

I personally do not use the e-collar in the place of either the ear pinch or the toe hitch. I will complete force fetch with either of the two methods, and then after that is completed I will collar fetch. This way I can correct a dog for either dropping a bumper or a bird no matter where they are ...

bean1031

The dog I have now is about as smart as she can be, but she tests you alot and think she knows best about everything. If you send her to one pile she will go to the other. But she only does this when I dont have my e-collar on her, but I know she knows what to do because with her e-collar she does 1...

I would have to agree with Thunderhead here. Ask someone who knows. I cant hit but around 30 out of fifty sporting clays :? and I dont enjoy them.

Is it legal in Kansas to let your dogs find birds out of season in the walk in areas if none of the people are carring guns? I would like to get my dogs on more birds but I was unsure. Thanks in advance.

bean1031

25 wild pheasent? You suck! Hear in kansas we didnt even see 25 the whole season!

I like George Bird Evans also. I am trying to get more of his books but they can get cashy at times. Ezzy who is this Gene Hill ? Please tell me more about him......Scott The best writter ever!

It wont let me view them. It just has a red X in the corner.

I dont know about FF fixing it. I had a pro trainer FF my dog with me and she still rolls it around in her mouth and holds it loosely.

A few months ago my dad came into my room at about midnight to check on me. My lab at the time only about 1 year and 50 pounds tackled a 6 foot 200 pound man with ease and was about to rip his head off when she relized who it was. I woke up to see my pup standing on my dads chest licking his face! :...

If I am going to be traping pigeons nears some houses close to me is there a big risk of getting sick?

I found a feild near my house that is next to appartments that litterly have around 1000 pigeons! My question is how do you keep other people from noticeing it and how do you keep predators away such as hawks and cyotes which we have a lot of around here? Also does any one have plans to make a pigeo...

Is it a Llewellin or an english?

I did a guided phesant hunt in texas, where we drove around in a Mule (golf cart on steriods) fallowing 4 pointers. When ever a dog went on point he would get his lab out of its kennel to flush the bird and retrieve it even though the pointers retrieved too. I think he just wanted a flushing dog and...

bean1031

I don't believe they naturally point and you're trying to get a dog to do something it was never bred for." Who says a dog needs to point to hunt upland birds. My grandfather hunted with goldens and 80percent of the time for pheasent. The hunting retriever club does a upland hunt test for retriever...

I use a DT redhead 1200 and nothing has gone wrong with it so far, but if I ever get another collar it will be Tri-tronics just because of the good reviews I have gotten in the past. The only reason I didnt before is the money factor and being my age $250 bucks is a ton compared to the $170 I got mi...

bean1031

If you walk the feilds and let him find and point the doves, this would be alright, but getting a pointer and making him sit and wait for birds to fly over head is kind of pointless. They were bred to point. The dog would want to fill his inborn job in life (pointing). He would do a good job of it, ...

Is there any way to make a remote higgins type realeaser? They seem very pricey, just to get the realeaser without the opener thing and the remote is like 145 bucks!

bean1031

You could do a sit to flush article or something like that!

Its good to hear from ya! Cash is doing great!

bean1031

Come on in!

bean1031

It would be fun but it says there 40 bucks a shot! thats 200 dollars to fill up the gun. By the way its not a pistol, it artillary,
