    Running two dogs on one controller

    Tri-Tronics was bought out by garmin a while back, so the toggle switch at the top of the remote that pointingdogsrule posted is pretty much the same switch I was using. I used the top one for one dog, and the bottom one for the other. Then left the swith in the middle (empty collar) position.

    Running two dogs on one controller

    I've got at older tri-tronics pro 100 that I used on two dogs. It was set up with a toggle switch on the remote that you could color code to the dog. Black/Blue/Red on the switch that represented the Black/Blue/Red collar on the dog. I'm not sure how the sport-dog switches between dogs, but...

    Travel Plans Affected

    My wife and I were married on Leap Day. We decided that we wouldn't do much for the typical anniversary, but would take a big trip every 4 years. This was the first time leap day has come around since getting married. We had a trip to Jamaica cut short after 3 days, and are now Quarantined at...

    Still working?

    I was skeptical of using three when i started at this new company. Now it seems weird not to have them! And yeah....there are times of the year where one monitor always has google earth or OnX open on it.

    Still working?

    Just finished converting a corner of the guest bedroom into an office. I will be here for at least 2 weeks. Who knows what will happen in that time, so I'm assuming it will be longer than that.

    I have not heard the term "Trump-Flu" either for what it's worth.

    Buy Now or Later — Tires

    I was gifted a pair of stock tires from a guy that upgraded his when he purchased a new truck. I ran those things for 3 years, and never had a problem. This was on an old truck that Had 215K miles on it and I didn't want to invest in expensive tires thinking I would either sell the truck or it...

    How to train my labs to duck hunt

    Join a local Hunting Retriever club in you area. No better way to train a dog then to spend time with people that train dogs. I'm sure the local clubs hold training days available to all members.

    This trip got a little scary in spots. Not sure I will do this one again.

    Wow. Look at those pontoons on the side of that canoe. That is a ingenious idea!

    How to Improve Montana's Block Management

    We ran into a quirk while goose hunting this past December. We'd scout and find a field full of geese on a BMA, then find out the permission is administered by the Regional FWP office. Which doesn't exactly do us a lot of good when scouting on a Saturday or Sunday for the next mornings hunt...

    Houses and Power lines

    I wouldn't let the power line bother me too much. But I'd get a deal on the property.

    Gear Prep for Caribou

    Your 20 Degree Kelty bag should do the trick. I wouldn't worry about upgrading your optics specifically for this trip, but if its something you've been thinking about for other uses....have at it. In all honesty. Take what you already have and go hunt! I've hunted the 40-mile herd a bit...

    School me on e collars

    I'm a Tri-tronics guy Myself. Haven't had to upgrade to the Garmin Models yet because the old tri-tronics one keeps on working. I also like the old cylinder style remotes for training. But they can be cumbersome on a hunt. If I were buying a collar, I'd be looking at a garmin first and then...

    Marriage advice for a newbie

    Agreed. I'm not in the tit-for-tat camp when it comes to money discussions like this. Sit down and discuss the things that are important to you and your spouse and make a plan to achieve them. Life would get real expensive if every purchase you ever made had to be balanced with a purchase by...

    Marriage advice for a newbie

    Do you make approximately the same amount? Seems like a little lopsided if say you made 150K / year and your wife made 35k/year. While your percentage of the shared contributions would be higher, you'd be left with a much larger disposable income after expenses then your spouse. Also, gets...

    Birds are game too

    We get a few spoonies every year, but I wouldn't say its the norm. Mostly Teal and Gadwall in the early season. Mallards come and go in waves toward the middle of the season, and then a heavy dose of divers (Goldeneye) in the late season.
