I'm curious...what does Iowa have in terms of land for in state or out of state pheasant hunters? A buddy suggested I look at Iowa during one of my school breaks for pheasants, but I know nothing about it.
I live in SE WI and McFarlane Pheasant farm (also located in SE WI) is the biggest pheasant farm in the country and they ship birds everywhere. To my knowledge, almost every state that has premier pheasant hunting gets some of their birds from McFarlane. Wisconsin's birds come from Poynette in...
Penny's first limit of public land pheasants. It was an awesome morning. Man I'm proud of that little dog. Pointed them both and both retrieved to hand. Makes me want to sell all my bow hunting gear.
Her point was good. She found it in some marsh grass between two plowed corn fields. As I approached the point the bird flushed and I shot it over one of the plowed fields. I don't train her steady to shot so she broke on the shot and retrieved it right to hand. No tail feathers on that...
I love this thread. How is MN compared to your WI hunts of the past? I just got a Griff and I can't wait to take her up to N. Wisconsin for grouse. I've followed your threads the last couple of years and was hoping you would put out another one for this year and you didn't disappoint!
What's with the attitude? You don't even know me. Your last two posts have been prick-like to say the least. My grades are in, prepped for next week, and ready to go. I've been working all day and part of last night. And all 5300 plus posts of yours are made on 100% of your free time..get real!
I hope I did not come across making it seem like teaching was the hardest job ever. I have done roofing, worked a jack-hammer, and even dug graves by hand...all of which I hope I never have to do again. However, it's the assumptions that aren't always correct. I'll give you some examples. 1...
It's sound advice. My intent was to never jump ship mid year. This "new job" is more or less a standing offer. I don't have to make a decision on this right now. However, I don't know if you saw my post about our district going to referendum. It failed in the spring last year by quite a...
For sure, I would never make a move without 1. consulting her first, 2. running the financials, and 3. getting her blessing. I appreciate the advice...thanks.
Did you read the entire thread? Cake and eat it too? More Compensation? Where are you getting this from? I said I was thinking about taking a pay cut to be able to get done with work earlier (this new job also has insurance) so I could hunt more. One guy on here asked if I could work, then...
