    Start another thread when you go, and post plenty of pictures for those of us stuck in an office.
    Lol I don't have a ton of free time, I just save my vacation to go hunting, and usually take comp time for holidays instead of OT (doesn't hurt to have a three day weekend every week either)

    Only got about 40 days until the 2016-17 season is upon us. Should be a good season with all the moisture and mild winter conditions during the post season.

    Gonna be bitter sweet, dog hasn't had a good year, I'll probably only get 1 or 2 big hunts out of her before she needs to hang it up. Hoping to get one last run on quail, not sure how I'll hunt after, been running her since I was 16, and she was a pup.

    What a wonderfully crazy breed of dog! I have had three over the years and loved hunting over them. All of them loved to hunt as much as I do. Enjoy her while you have her!

    Sorry to hear that. The last really good set of dogs I had was 20 years ago.



    The white dog had the best nose I've ever hunted over. The GSP was a great pheasant dog...get 'em holding tight in some love grass when it was cold, and he could snatch them himself. No shit, had days that the dog had more birds than me.

    A man after my own heart, I have two American Britts as well. Mine are only 5 and 4, but certainly don't look forward to the last hunt with them.

    Have any of you guys ever used or owned a Boykin Spaniel?

    I get home September 1 and dove season opens September 3!!!!!!!!!! That and duck hunting are pretty much the only bird hunting we have around me. Quail are almost none existent now. I'm hoping to get some land one day and try to start my own reintroduction program.

    We have land in the "Flint Hills" region of SE Kansas.
    Quail populations are a ghost of what they were 15 yrs. ago, but still "hunt-able"
    Me and old "Belle" 3 years ago. That old girl was a hunter. Had to put her down last winter which was beyond tough.
    Got her replacement a couple months later so Junie had a companion.
    The pup shows promise.
    Here's pup (Luci) and Junie after a bath and in the "big dog bed".
