    Dog fence alternatives

    Looking to keep my dog within about a 6 acre boundary without having to build a fence. I'm interested in trying the invisible electric fence thing. Are any of you guys using something like this for such a big area? What are my options?

    Dog fence alternatives

    Same for me. My dog doesn't run away she is pretty much a dream dog but she recently ended up at the neighbors house with his dogs. His dogs have been at my house everyday for the last three weeks which isn't a problem but my dog apparently followed them home yesterday. He is a drunken idiot and he claimed she bit him which is a lie unless he cornered her and tried something crazy and even then I can't see her doing anymore than nipping at him, but none the less I can't risk her ending up over there anymore because she will be shot. There is alot more to the story but it's not as simple as training my dog to stay home, which is something she has been trained to do for 5 years, or so I thought.

  7. Do not try to stalk too early in the morning when the thermals have yet to settle although there are times especially in January where being ultra aggressive can pay off at any time of the day. Let the conditions determine how close you try to get. You can tell pretty early on in your stalk how much noise you're making and how well the wind and vegetation around you is absorbing that noise. Anticipate what the deer are going to do. If it's 11 o'clock and warm and they're on a north slope then watch them until they bed and then make your move. If it seems as if you can make it to them quickly and quietly before they bed then that may be the best bet. Each scenario is different and you never know if you made the right decision or not until the deer is either dead or has left. Plan on making multiple failed stalks before one actually pans out. Sometimes it is best to get to 100 yards or so and not get any closer and hope that the deer gets up out of his bed and closes the gap rather than you closing the gap. If he feeds away you can follow. Deer are less likely to hear or see you coming when they're head is down feeding. If you are able to make it into range while a deer is bedded then be patient and stay ready. Anticipate what he'll do when he stands up and position yourself to be ready for that shot. Scooting just a few feet in one direction(even backwards) can open up totally different shooting lanes but can also do the opposite. I've waited as much as half a day for deer to stand up so have that mindset. DO NOT FORCE ANYTHING. getting to 100 yards and hitting a doe bleat or a grunt call can be productive but it can also do the opposite and many times it won't do anything. I usually spend the last few hundred yards on my hands and knees going extremely slow unless the conditions and topography allow me to stay standing up. You may feel louder on your hands and knees but it's usually because you're ears are closer to the noise. I put on a pair of athletic knee pads for every stalk. Do not ever get lazy and do not ever take shortcuts and you will eventually connect and it will be one of the most rewarding things you do.

    They're both 111's Craig. One just has a few more 1/8s than the other. I shot the 3x3 in 2014.

    I don't know Benbrown personally but he's been helpful to alot of people on this forum in the past including me. He seems like a good dude, not a tool.

    Soft ball has a pretty good track record. One of the best softball schools in the country...hard to imagine that in Tucson, with all the illegal aliens and all.

  14. For pants I recommend prana zion stretches. Under a hundred bucks and probably the most comfortable pants I've worn. They only come in solid colors though, which I don't think matters much.

    ARROWS

    I'm shooting black eagles also. Very accurate and inexpensive compared to the carbon express stuff. I shot carbon express maxima hunters for years and I feel I'm slightly more accurate with the black eagles although I have to really on my game to notice a difference.

    How do you judge size in June?

    Very hard to tell from that one picture but he doesn't necessarily look all that young to me. I do think 330-340 is a good guess though.
  22. Dang man you look too young to be having grandkids. Awesome though. Congrats she's a cutie.
