Had a blast in South Dakota a couple of weeks ago with Bucket and other buddies. It was my first time back there, and all the stories are true. I've been hunting pheasants since I was 5 years old (with a BB gun of course!) in Ea. WA, and I literally saw more birds the first day than I've ever seen in 37 years combined! The first day we were done in 45 minutes: We got into some awesome Honker shooting too out of Final Approach blinds....Here's Bucket with a couple of them bad boyz: Best part of the whole deal was getting to take a 14-month old Lab back there and seeing him hunt and retieve and improve everyday: Total for the trip was 100 ringnecks and 38 geese and memories that'll last a lifetime!

Glad you had a good time SIR FEAR! Maybe next year we can do it again, and add in the river trip! By the way that "5-7" to you. Ya what Sol said also.

Sol's got it right though "a shotgun is a fishermen's worst enemy".....it's damn tough to shoot birds AND fish. Sure wish we could take sabbaticals every October through January.... ![beathead beathead](/forum/images/graemlins/default_dark/beathead.gif)

Right on man. Sounds like you had a good time.
I bet your dog got spoiled with all those birds though. He's gonna be begging to go back every year. From the looks of it, I'm sure you'll be more than happy to oblige.

BennyBlack: There's so dang many birds back there, I think you could teach a Saint Bernard to hunt!
Definitely hope to go back, but that 22-1/2 hour drive is killer!

Bucket: Bugger off, dude, Sol's got all kinds of topics going on the other Board, go bug him! At least *I* posted a report of the trip!!!

Wow, we were just having fun. No offence intended. However it is sad that so many of these dogs have been bread for show in stead of what they had originally been intended. They are truly great hunting dogs. But then I had hoped the smilly faces would have let you know there was at least a little humor involved. ![confused confused](/forum/images/graemlins/default_dark/confused.gif)

No offence taken BW, if I wasn't so lazy I would have clicked on the "full reply" so I could add the icons ![laugh laugh](/forum/images/graemlins/default_dark/laugh.gif) I should have thought out my statement better....I almost said "poodles", but I saw a guy about 10 years ago hunting with one of those! I was just ticked off at my buddy Bucket since he is going fishing tomorrow and I can't BTW, that is a cool group to belong to, looks like a lot of fun! Nice Website!
