Pup's first hunt test

Summary: Well, last weekend I took Arrow to run in a hunting test put on by NAVHDA's Lone Star Chapter.  Took place near Taylor, TX, at the Spanish Oak Hunt Club, and although I attended one of the chapter's training days last fall, it was my first test event.  Part of my agreement with Arrow's breeder was ...

Free Gun Dog Training Table **GONE**

Summary: **Table is now gone***   I need to get rid of a force fetch training table.  It is 2' x 8' and made of cement board with 2"x4" framing.  Has a hinged ramp on one end.  Fairly sturdy and heavy.  I never did end up adding a whoa post, but it served me well.  There is a thread in the bird dog se...

Summary: Mossberg International Silver Reserve 12ga over/under in about 90% condition on both wood and bluing.  Clean bores and no cracks in wood.  Worst spot on bluing is left side has a long thin mark where it looks like it was propped up and slid down as it fell over (no rust though).  I'm told gun is le...

Marlin .357mag Carbine

Marlin .357mag Carbine
Summary: I have an old Marlin Model 1894 carbine in .357 magnum.  This gun is in good overall shape but the bluing is speckled with light rust and there are signs of wear over the years.  Butt stock has an extra hole in front of the sling mount.  Not pristine but still pretty good condition.  Face-to-face s...

Tips on how to properly handle a firearm

Summary: Great idea, bigmike. I have a gun safe and so I almost never use a gun lock. I am sure I could find one laying around somewhere as well if someone needs one. A couple of my guns came with cable locks that I have never used and likely never will.

My New Gun

Summary: I do like the CZ shotguns!

What weapon do you....

Summary: For deer I use primarily a Remington Model 700 BDL in 30.06 and topped with a variable Bushnell scope. My favorite handgun is the Glock in .40 cal -- not any hunting with it, mind you, but when carrying a weapon for protection it fits the bill perfectly. Ultra reliable, simple, and effective when chambered in a large enough calibre. But hands-down my favorite hunting/shooting is with a shotgun. Just started hunting birds a couple of years ago and absolutely became addicted fast. In those couple of years I have acquired four shotguns and like different things about each of them. For upland birds I like a double barrel; for dove and waterfowl I like a semi-auto. I also have an 870 Express Super Mag that is a great field gun, and I have a nice little 20 gauge SxS that I am looking forward to using on some quail this winter. My overall favorite is probably my new Beretta O/U in 12 gauge, but the Xtrema is a way fun gun, too. Glad I can't own just one!

Snake Avoidance Training

Summary: I can certainly understand why. And for any dog working on warm days, there must be plenty of water and close supervision. I remember hearing about one year in the Dakotas when it was around 90 degrees on the phez opener and many dogs died or suffered heat stroke. I know I am always trying to not let the dog over do it but at the same time want to condition him so that he is not expected to just show up for hunting season in shape. Texas heat can be tough on all of us! Snake avoidance training, IMO, is a good idea for all gun dogs, as we can have warm days during any month of the year and our dogs can have snake encounters even if not working in a field or lake.

pointers for a pointer

Summary:

There are some excellent forums out there dedicated to gun dogs where you can search archives and get all sorts of advice (some of which is worth something).  You can also find certain books or videos that get recommended more than others; the ones consistently being recommended to new folks would be good resources. 

 

The good news is at 4 months you are just trying to develop a bond with the pup, let it be exposed to new things, etc.  You will start doing more training soon but plenty of time to do your homework.  I have very little experience but would be glad to share more thoughts if you want to email me directly.
