    Euro Mounts done at Fort KDM Now.

    So...it's cheaper if I send you a buck head with skin, fur, and neck attached than one that's been skinned and detached from the neck? Am I reading that right?

    Wirehaired Griffon Owners / Breeders

    Uh oh...my condolences. :;:cheers - - - Updated - - - That is one downfall in the GWP. Sometimes your coat is a crapshoot. I personally own a more traditional GWP and a slick GWP (I got it almost full grown and knew it wasn't going to have a wirey coat). Honestly, other than the one...

    coyote attack

    What an awesome experience! Almost wonder if he knew she'd get away, but hoped he could do enough damage to injure her. Now he'll just trail her for a few days until she's weak enough for the kill. The Komodo Dragons of the prairie. Versatile, efficient killers.

    Where are the NDBA hunting records??

    The dude is the luckiest man I know. He drew that tag his first time applying for the moose license. Proceeded to shoot a monster bull. In the meantime, got a job at a bank in Watford City right before the oil boom hit. Bought a house for peanuts. Wound up getting transferred to eastern ND at...

    Where are the NDBA hunting records??

    That 2016 moose thread got me thinking about North Dakota archery records. Back in 2010, a college buddy arrowed what was then the No. 4 bull moose in state history (53.5-inch inside spread, but don't know/can't find the final score). Used to be a list on the North Dakota Bowhunters Association...

    Wirehaired Griffon Owners / Breeders

    Well, as I said, the dog at the Invitational was a worked dog. It takes a LOT to get to that level, and it earned a Versatile Champion title (unsure how that happened, but whatever). Here's the thing: if you REALLY want to put in the effort, you can get any dog to hunt. I mean, with the right...

    Smells

    Puppies Freshly spread manure (don't ask me why...I'm not even a farmer, but it brings back good memories from grandad's farm) Hops on the vine Hoppes No. 9 Butcher shops (everything smells like smoke and spices) Pipe tobacco (grandpa smoked one, however I do not) Deer opener in the woods when...

    Wirehaired Griffon Owners / Breeders

    I hope I didn't come off as an asshole. Or douche. Or douchenozzle. If so, I apologize. I'm pretty damn passionate about dogs and training, so apologies for any brashness. If you truly want a good Griff, look outside ND and MN and AWAY from the east coast. I'd search west. I believe there are...

    Wirehaired Griffon Owners / Breeders

    My wife is also allergic to some dogs, specifically Labs and whatnot. One reason we gravitated toward GWPs. She is not allergic to our dogs.

    Wirehaired Griffon Owners / Breeders

    I own two GWPs and have a two kids: a 3-year-old and a 3-month old. To put things in perspective on how they are as family pets, I'd feel safer having my dogs babysit than a teenager from down the street. I would NOT own dogs that were not family pets first. The fact they each are incarnations...

    Migration

    I really think the main push still isn't going to be until at least Halloween weekend, if not deer opener. Folks I talked to who are hunting SK and MB are still covered up in birds. That snow and cold weather did little to push the main masses further south.

    Wirehaired Griffon Owners / Breeders

    I'm biased so take what I say with a grain of salt. I've yet to see a Griffon that impressed me in the field. I ran and VC'd my wirehair with one at the NAVHDA Invitational in 2013. To say it was a boot-licker would be an understatement. How that dog earned a VC is beyond me. Apparently the...

    The official new ice fishing tackle and equipment for 2016-17

    You can find nice, used drop-downs on Craigslist for cheaper than that. And they'll hold more than two people. Laaaaame.

    The official new ice fishing tackle and equipment for 2016-17

    The giveaway that they're probably stupid expensive is a lack of pricing on the website. "Contact us for more info!' Ah, no.

    I'm sure this shack costs slightly less than an Ice Castle, but boy is it a nifty thing. http://www.hardwatermarine.com

    Garden sucess

    Just looking at all these pepper pictures is giving my butt phantom ring-of-fire. We have three rhubarb plants. They did what they were supposed to do. That's as green as our thumbs get.

    Recipe: Spicy Duck Sausage

    We eat our ducks so fast I literally never have enough to make sausage. My 3-year-old is a carnivore and his favorite dinner is grilled duck.

    Migration

    Yeah, bird numbers are way down from a week ago here on the east side. Hunted Sunday morning and it was surprisingly slow. Came home with a nice drake redhead and a couple goddies. Took the 3-year-old on what may have been his last hunt of the fall. We'll see. If temps climb back up we might...

    Pheasant Opener

    Buddy hunted Saturday in SE ND and said it was horrible. He wound up driving west of Jamestown to find birds. I chased ducks instead, although the farmers were just starting to combine corn by Sunday afternoon. A couple more weeks and I might give it a try. But I'm not ready to hang up my...

    Literally just stumbled upon this guy. Pretty sure he's from Saskathewan, eh: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8hMNhL6GIiwxAWCpoBvIxQ Oct. 5 scouting video (field loaded with mallards): Followed by the Oct. 6 hunt in the snow and wind (two whole birds): Obviously one hunter in one...
