So it’s been a little weird around here lately. The SmithFly stuff is taking off and getting crazy in a good way. That’s awesome, 2012 looks GREAT, thanks for all the support. Most of my stuff is now SOLD OUT which is a good thing. I’ve been working some crazy overtime at my day job, [...]

Where to order a good turkey this Thanksgiving
Posted in Bird Dogs, Bird Hunting, Stupid Stuff, tagged Bowman and Landes, Free Range Turkey, Free Range Turkey's Bowman and Landes, Thanksgiving Turkeys on November 17, 2011 | Leave a Comment »
If you aren’t going to eat a wild turkey or goose this Thanksgiving, I highly recommend you check into Bowman and Landes. They are a local for me, but ship all over the US, great turkeys, and worth a look. Just look at those ugly SOB’s wandering around like idiots in the corn, they look [...]
And don’t forget…

Found this thanks to our friends over at Ohio English Setter Rescue. This sign should be read in your best Bob Barker voice.
More proof that Gun Dogs are the best dogs ever.

Its not easy to watch but check out the video below of a Brittany watching over his Setter friend who was injured in the Japanese earthquake and tsunami. Amazing video, and proof positive that Gun Dogs RULE! I’ll give away the ending that the dog lying on the ground is alive and its a Setter. [...]
A tribute to Jenny Lynn
Posted in Banjo, Bird Dogs, Bird Hunting, Dove Hunting, Fiddle Tunes, tagged Bird Dogs, Bluegrass, Fiddle Tunes, Jenny Lynn, Labradors on January 25, 2011 | 1 Comment »
Today Jeffrey L. Frischkorn of Willoughby, Ohio writes of his departed friend Jenny Lynn. With a dog name like Jenny Lynn you gotta think he is into some Bluegrass and we like that. Whatever the reason for the name there is a heck of a pay-off at the end see quote below. GREAT STUFF. When that [...]

We headed for the hills this Saturday in search of Grouse. I’m new to the world of Grouse, and most other bird related activities, but I’m taking it all in and learning as much as possible. Pics below.

So this may seem obvious to most, but it was a learning experience for me. When cleaning birds, make sure they are completely dead before leaving them on the floor in your kitchen. How do I know this? I learned it the hard way this weekend. Based on my last two excursions with my “new [...]
You shot MY bird!
Posted in Bird Dogs, Bird Hunting, English Setters, tagged Bird Hunting, Ditch Chickens, Jeep, Ohio Hunting, Pheasants, You shot MY Bird on November 19, 2010 | Leave a Comment »
The day after the pheasant opener this year I headed up to a tolerable spot for such things. Its big enough that even on busy bird hunting day like the day after the opener, you have a few fields to yourself. Driving along in the pre-dawn haze nearing my destination I noticed a dog with [...]
Chasing Phez.

So today is opening day for Pheasants in Ohio. I didn’t plan very well and couldn’t take today off to go chase them on opening day. So it will have to wait until tomorrow. This year I have a new, to me, Setter named Nick, and we will see how he does on Pheasants. My [...]
Uncle Ted is in trouble again.
Posted in Bird Dogs, Bird Hunting, Conservation, tagged Bird Hunting, Ditch Chicken, Pheasant Hunting, South Dakota, Ted Nugent on October 27, 2010 | Leave a Comment »
According to the Rapid City Journal the always bombastic Ted Nugent might be in hot water again, this time in South Dakota. Apparently it is unclear if his license was suspended in California earlier this year for supposedly… …hunting deer in a baited area and failing to get an authorized signature on a [...]
