Here outside of Yellowstone country hotel booking are down big, a couple of local lodging options are saying up to 75% so far this Summer. Gas prices or whatever, it's a welcome break.
I'm pretty shocked I haven't lost any to BOP yet, only a matter of time. I had one marinating in a launcher last week and a Kestrel landed on the launcher and tried to figure out what was going on. All I want from them to get my project dog some work before Fall. Was real hard to find anything...
I have Birmingham Rollers, it's a trip watching them roll out of the air and recover. I use them for training pointing dogs. Much like anything else I found out there was a Pigeon shortage this year. I finally found rollers for $5 a bird and got 12. They've produced 7 additional squeakers and 3...
NM fire started as an RX burn that got away. We burned yesterday on the Forest, but also had to wait for snow to burn off slash piles so we're in a better situation than most.
I'm in East Idaho. She was purchased as a pup by a gentleman who intended to hunt her. Sadly he was diagnosed with cancer shortly after and passed last Fall. His wife wanted the pup to go to a hunting home. She's

Apologies I missed this. I live in Driggs. Glad you enjoyed Le Wolf. I run setters on mountain grouse, among other things. Drop a note if back in the Fall.

I'll bet former team guy, John Barklow at Sitka, is slightly annoyed he kitted out Jocko, Dudley, and the Black Rifle Coffee folks for years of high profile Deseret hunts only to see him start competing in the space. The Origin launch video is pretty hilarious, acting like they just discovered...
