[quote]what impresses me more is when they don't sniff the ground, they just "wind" them[/quote] That amazes everyone that watches my dog work. I hunt with a guy that can see blood and he knows the direction the deer went based on it, but my dog is downwind working in an ever narrowing V pattern...

re: Tracking Wounded Deer With A Dog

Posted by way_south on 4/4/24 at 10:36 am

I am colorblind and rely on my dog to track all my deer that don’t just drop. They are amazing and you shouldn’t train to track just deer, you should train to trail a scent. My dog was trained by Randy Devall with a variety of scents, dragged over others and they learn to focus on what you want an...

re: Persistent Elbow/Forearm Pain While Arm Isolate Lifting

Posted by way_south on 3/4/24 at 2:15 pm

I had something similar out of the blue. Originally diagnosed as tennis elbow because of the symptoms I was having. I put off surgery and did PT, PRP and nothing helped. Turned out one of my tendons was torn up and looked like swiss cheese, the MD actually showed me while he was doing the surgery...

I use the cheapest grease I can buy at the auto parts store in a tub. They try to climb it once, and stay away after that attempt. I usually only do one piece of each leg and someone always bumps into it eventually but it works....

I lived in a place in Madisonville where the mosquitoes were worse than anything I'd ever had to deal with. I bought a fogger and used talstar. No mosquitoes for close to a month after a treatment. It was nice being able to enjoy my back yard after I started that treatment....
