I came across the breed several years ago. Everything I read said they are excellent waterfowl dogs and they point. I had wanted to try a pointer because I do hunt quite a bit of upland too, so I figured if I could get one dog that does both as opposed to two dog I'd give it a try

With the unexpected passing of Beau last May, I went through last season dogless. First time in over 30 years. That wasn't going to happen again, so I spent last weekend driving to Virginia to pick up an 8 week old Pudelpointer. Here's Beau on his last hunt. Didn't know it at the time. And...

I too built one 10-15 years ago. Still using it now. The bow block looks right, minus final shaping. Mine was also made from two pieces and through bolted. No need with a single piece. Good luck, looking forward to following your progress. Mines ready for an overhaul and some upgrades...

In my career as a game warden I have delt with A LOT of beaver problems. All the control devices do is just slow them down. You'll still have problems annd you have to maintain them on a regular basis. Eradicating them is the answer. Most warden's used .22, but my preference was 12 ga with 00...

Here are a couple pictures: I used nylon webbing. Additional vegetation can be slid under Here is the underside. You can see the pockets that hold fiberglass fence posts Stowed for travel If I were to make another I would like it to be another foot or more longer.

I use pretty much the same thing Dave does. Let me know if you would like to see pictures. I can go out to the shop and take a couple.

PA just had an eagle and five hooded mergansers test positive for HPAI. Be careful and report dead or sick birds. Do not handle. Greater threat to domestic poultry than humans though. https://www.media.pa.gov/Pages/game-commission-details.aspx?newsid=534

A few from last season. Took a trip to Arkansas the end of January. What a great time.

I hunted more open water out of my ZTW last year and decided a decoy pick up stick would make life a lot easier. I started with an old broomstick and this is what I came up with.... ... and yes Steve it has the required Turk's head knot.

I went with Steve's suggestion of an aluminum binding post. McMaster delivered them within 24 hours. Fit perfect and gave a nice clean appearance which is what I wanted. Now I'm on to the pole. I've got a 10 ft closet rod fitted to the push pole head. Just try to decide if I should paint it or...

Thanks everyone for your input. I think I like the binding post idea with a little lock lite. I'll have to see what I can find locally.

Dani, I have the Decked drawers in my work truck. They are pricey but work very well. I spend a lot of time on dirt roads and they truly are waterproof and dust proof. The drawers are very sturdy, slide in and out easily and can be divided up for organizing. My only complaint for a personal...

I had looked on Jamestown Distributors and didn't find them. I'll look again.

I bought a Hearter's push pole head that I disassembled sanded and painted. I need one copper rivet 1 3/4" by 1/8" to put it back together. Anyone know of a supplier that sells small quantities? I found one company that has them, but I would have to buy 100.

Here's Beau
