Would having a flushing dog AND a pointing dog for hunting pheasant work?
September 22, 2008 by blog100 · 4 Comments
or would the flushing dog over rule the pointer making the pointer useless alongside the flusher? I kinda want an english springer spaniel, and a brittany to keep the spaniel company while at work, but dont know that i’ll hunt the pointer if he/she would be useless working with a flusher.

What do people usually wear pheasant and other gamebird hunting?
April 19, 2008 by blog100 · 5 Comments
New hunter here. What does one usually wear gamebird hunting, or pheasant hunting in particular? I notice wal-mart has “upland game shirts”/”upland vests” for sale (tan color with safety orange patches). Is this the norm? Would I look like a complete idiot if I wore some deer hunting garb? (a camo jacket with an orange vest)? I’m not asking so much for vanity value but what’s functional and what will work out on the field. thanks for the help!
