Re: Get Your AZZ Out Hunting.
Burros are common in Colorado with high altitude sheep ranchers. The combination of guard dogs and burros are death to 'yotes and other predators.

Re: Ronnie this is Hog Control
I read somewhere that it is legal in TX to do what is on the video. One issue would be a bloody mess in the field. Talk about spreading brucellosis.... I sent the link to a farmer buddy who has been beset with crop depradation by hogs. Usually one shot stampedes the sounder, but this wouldn't.

Re: One tough camera!!
I've heard and seen the Elk herds at the Railroad Ranch in September. The place is covered with waterfowl as well. What a spectacular place. Looking to the SSE from the Ranch it's hard to believe the Grand Tetons are 50 miles away.

Re: One tough camera!!
See where the camera was near Island Park, ID. I used to fish the Box Canyon at Island Park below the reservoir and the Harriman State Park a few miles down the road to Last Chance. Some of the best trout fishing in the lower 48 at one time was in the Henry's Fork of the Snake River. Gil

Re: Hogs! (update)
Hogs are like rats except bigger. On a place I hunt, we trapped 25. They left when the area dried up. You've got to catch the entire sounder to eliminate the sob's. A buddy has the cell phone controlled system but he hasn't set it up yet.

Re: I warned ya :)
Back in the late 1960s, one of the local plantations thought they could control who used the adjacent tidal waters. Back then, private "rabbit sheriffs" harassed and made cases against those who hunted in the surrounding rivers. The good ole boys got sick of it. One had a connection to a G...

Watching Richt's face doesn't compare to watching the Ole Ball Coach take one in the visor. The last two times he beat Ga. guess who won the eastern division? I take it you must be a fan of the Loveliest Reform School on the Plains. Gil

Pete, sounds like the gun is a good fit for you and vice versa. Isn't it nice having a Made in America gun that has all steel and machined parts instead of stamped and cast? What choke did you use on dove? Gil

I hunt alone. I consider my phone a safety lifeline. A flip phone would do the same, but with a smartphone, I can look at live weather radar, use it as a gps, look at maps and navigate, take photos. I could live without it, but why? I have had a buddy contact me while in the woods to let me know whe...

Re: One of the worst days ever.
It is amazing how much longer little dogs live than larger ones. 17 years is a big chunk of a man's life. I know two folks whose Jack Russells lived to be 19. It is unusual for a Jack to live that long because they usually have a high mortality rate for accidental death--like challenging a tractor p...

Hal, nice photos especially your "retrievers". Our season begins on the 6th at noon. I sure wish we hunted in the a.m, however. It'll be a Dove Hunter Steam Roast for sure. Gil

John, the best place to bury a dog is in your heart. We've all been where you are, and if we play our cards right, we'll do it again.

Re: Are these numbers good
Those are good numbers in the 10. Hard to burn up shells, but if that's just one shot, no telling what the next would do. Too bad Federal HW doesn't have #8 shot. A third more shot in each load with the 15 g/cc density #8 would be a tough hombre. Probably wouldn't be legal in all states, but that's ...
