Agreed with all the posts, as long as you practice and know your equipment and your capabilities 100+ shots are not unreasonable.... We have harvested a lot of deer with bows ranging from 10 yds to 75 yds. http://i1056.photobucket.com/albums/t373/Bberry2031/DeerBow.jpg http://i1056.photobucket.com/a...

Saw 4 different coveys of grouse. They were very flightey... couldnt get on top of them. More than i saw last year, but i am not the avid grouse hunter. I have seen quite a few phez out and about.

Bberry20

Yeah it is a really good feeling. This is my first bird dog that i have trained by myself. It is nice to see the work in the off season paying off and will only get better and the season progresses.

First, Thank you for your service! It is because of people like you that we can enjoy our dogs and freedom. Welcome to the forum, glad to have you. You will find tons of information to help you with your retriever.

Welcome to the forum!

Bberry20

Where are you located? I would look for a reputable breeder and if you can go look at the sire and dam. You will really get a sense of what the pup will be like if you can do that.

Bberry20

great looking pup! have fun and enjoy the puppy breath!

Bberry20

congrats on the progress and glad to see the training is going well.

Bberry20

Great pics, looks like a good time.

Went out for the grouse opener this weekend and put on a lot of miles. The pup did great and got his first wild bird in the bag. Pointed, steady to flush, and retrieved to hand. Not too bad for a 6 month pup. Pretty proud of my little guy. http://i1056.photobucket.com/albums/t373/Bberry2031/rebel1st...

we went out for grouse on saturday, we did find 4 or 5 coveys, but they were all very flightey. Hard for the dogs, even the experienced ones to hold them on point. We put on 10 miles and didnt limit out. Good luck for all who hunt them.

welcome to the furom, glad to have ya.

welcome to the forum!

Bberry20

If you nail down a date let me know and i might be able to take you some places outside "bleep". Would be a little drive but might be able to get you on some birds.

Bberry20

i wouldnt waste your time south of watford unless you know someone with land. With the oil boom there are soooooo many trucks and rig sites that finding birds is very hard to do. Not saying they arent there, but will be more difficult then going south. Basically, I-94 to Williston is all oil rig sit...

Bberry20

very nice pics, they both look great!

Bberry20

Hello John! great to have you on, i used to live in E burg, grandparents still do, also yakima, selah and naches. Post some pics of your pup, and hope the training goes well.

Bberry20

If i was to run a dog for hogs, i would look at one of these......

for the guys who hunt hogs, do you eat them? I have heard of them being "so-so" for taste? True?

+1, great collar absolutely love it.

Bberry20

For those few who said antlers, is that something you can get anywhere like a farm supply or a TSC, or is that something you have left over from a deer hunt? Corry Mine come from the stacks, and stacks, and stacks, i have in the garage from shed hunting in the spring/summer while scouting deer. My ...

so sorry, horrible to read this.

Bberry20

thats awesome! congrats. glad to see our pup is progressing. Our opener is one week away and cant wait to get my pup out.

Bberry20

i have a large for my pup, once kennel trained i dont see the problem with a bigger crate. but i have seen others post that they want their dogs to be laying in the crate for saftey reasons which makes a lot of sense.

Bberry20

sorry to hear that, sad to see with such a good looking dog. hope all is well you and your family.

Bberry20

Just a side note, the cattle shouldn't have anything to do with whether or not there are birds there. But it is good that you are getting them out and exposing them to the different elements. I would have to beg the differ, herew if there are cattle in the field you might as well go to a differfent...

Bberry20

Have you tried them in cold weather by chance?

Bberry20

I took my pup out to the field for the first time at 3 months, i did not put him on a check cord and just let him roam and figure things out. You may find out that they wont go to far, as all of the smells and sights are new to them. My pup would only go 10-15 yards away, then look and come back to ...

Anyone tried these boots?

http://www.llbean.com/llb/shop/65685?pa ... land-boots

I know LL Bean has a great return policy, so i was thinking of picking up a pair for hunting season. I thought i would see if anyone has tried these and what there thoughts were.

Bberry20

Atleast you have a picture of them and not the entry wounds they leave!

Bberry20

Welcome to the forum, good looking dog you have there!

Bberry20

Well yesterday was the first time i have put Rebel (6 months) on the Whoa table. I was so impressed with him, i was able to give him the whoa command, back up, kick the dirt, and walk completely around the table without him moving his feet, then give him his release commmand and he jumped down. He w...

Bberry20

Very good read, enjoyed it. Congrats to you and your dog. Sounds like a lot of hard work and dedication that paid off!

Bberry20

I just did gun intro with my first pup, so i know how you feel. I was lucky enough to have a friend who has trained a few dogs help me. What we did was went on a walk out in the field, and also brought his Britt that has hunted the last few years. While we were walking when my pup was interested in ...
