Hi all, got a question I am trying to deal with in my group of hunters... How many people in a blind before it gets to be too many? I've made a very nice blind for 4 people, and one guy is appalled that I would hunt with so many and decided he is going to bail on opening day. So folks, how...

Good morning all, now that it is sunday, and I am not legally allowed to hunt, I thought to put up a couple of hunting pictures from this weeks adventures. My season is ending on New Years eve, and it has been a blur. All your stories and pictures have kept me motivated and entertained, thanks...

Shermie gave me an idea. This picture needs a caption. :) https://scontent-a-lga.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xfa1/t31.0-8/10446293_10152698062955141_6287741080756224302_o.jpg

Good morning all, just thought I'd post up a picture of my pup with some snipe he pointed. Not sure if I'm gonna be able to eat so much meat :P Hope you all are having a fun season! Jon...

Only took me 1.5 years to get this simple task done, but I finally made the cover for my solo canoe. Basically, I made this out of denier PVC (I think) and a bunch of 1 inch webbing. My wife let me use the sewing machine, and it went pretty well. Tested it out this morning, and also tested...

Got tired of cutting the grass by the end of last year, so I had a brilliant plan... So far my new lawn mowers have cut down the raspberries, debarked a couple trees, and then got a taste for grass finally...

Howdy all, I have a question. I happened upon a group of local carvers, and I have been invited to meet up with them once a week to get some guidance and such. They are more into art carving, and its great stuff, but I am more interested in gunning blocks at this point. I thought it would be...

Hi all, just got to thinking about how much work it has been getting Moose up to snuff for basic obedience. Some serious blood pressure spikes when he plays "Stay away" and keeps back about 5 feet wagging his tail and thinking its a great fun game. Then you get quiet moments like this and it...

It was a first for both me and Ambi the springer (*short for Ambulance). Ambi is about 1 year and 2 months old, and has hunted birds but so far we have been very cautious about over doing the shooting. Seems he doesn't care one bit, and just wants birds to rain down... We hunted hard for...

Today I slept in until about 6, and then I got up to walk the dog, and have a coffee and a few egg sandwiches and send my wife off to New Brunswick for her weekend girls trip...The house was quiet as she took the dog, and the cat was happy to not be retrieved by the dog. My wife texted me a...

This was made by my grandfather, Juan, and given to my father by him. Passed down to me Aug 30 2013, a "new to me" knife with the passing of my father, also Juan. The story behind this knife, like many of the ones made by my grandfather is the end of an old steel file is the beginning of...

So I decided to get my little 11 footer converted for duck hunting. It paddle well with a kayak paddle, but does circles with a canoe paddle (even with a good J stroke). Moved the rear thwart back a bit, took out the seat, so I have room, and I am going to build a rest from the thwart to the...

Howdy all, I was just out west visiting family and my mom brought out a big bag of knives my dad had collected over the years. Mostly bayonets and some odds and ends. I decided to take this one home, and am pretty pleased to add it to my collection. I have another similar to it, and am not...

Pre-session nap for Moose https://sphotos-a-lga.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-frc3/1235524_10151817526005141_1803070577_n.jpg Decided it was time for Moose to try a real bird. I don't want to spoil him with real birds, but he is always checking out my bird pen and probably thinks he would be a good...

Well, I'm getting a bit anxious for some birds, and I just thought Id put up some pics of my pup, Moose. He won't be hunting this year, but definitely we'll giver a go next year. He's been a bit of a demon sometimes, but he's coming around and seems to have a lot of natural hunting instinct...

He's already visibly bigger in just a week! And he likes to bite me, and I think we got that sorted out yesterday. Pretty amazing to see how he figures things out. Here he is trying to learn to use the pressure canner...

I present "Moose" the Griffon. Just picked him up yesterday afternoon, and he seems to be enjoying my company. He also likes Gibson the cat, but the cat is not to sure about him, and so far has smacked him on the head a couple times (claws in thankfully), and Moose seems to be a quick learner...

Hi all, I just build a quail pen, and got some quail from a hunt test that was in my back yard... And today a chukar came around checking things out. I was almost able to coral him to the pen, except I couldn't open the door without freaking him out. Is there some kind of easy chukar trick...

Hi all, the dogs are starting to look like griffons... but still pups. Just 20 more days! :) https://fbcdn-sphotos-c-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/1025506_10151649035415141_1896146264_o.jpg https://fbcdn-sphotos-e-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/1015691_10151649035405141_1724831119_o.jpg...
