To clarify on. Cubera, a case can be a soft case or gun sock when carrying out to the field, in a sxs or quad. This is especially true before shooting hours.
In a car or truck the gun must be cased, doesn't have to have a trigger lock. When leaving a car or truck the gun must be cased and vehicle locked, then the gun is secure
The company i work for has $2B profit each year and they want us to buy swag and field wear. F that when I am in the field and spending my money, I represent LSU.
Garmin for me, my current one is 9+ yrs old no issues. It also has a built-in light so maybe useful for you to find dog in dark. I use that feature when setting up decoys in dark and black lab is running around

Turnpike summer tour

Just wanted to give a thumbs up to turnpike troubadors summer tour. Great set, energy, did a 23 song set so played most of favourites. Venue was great too, art park on banks of niagara r, weather perfect too. Will definitely see them again. Glad they came to the northeast.
Every gd day and w every company i have worked with. You can't fix stupid.
Good summary of changes to Prairie hunting on Ramsey russel podcast w past delta director. Summary is that out fitter trips have tripled in sk over 10 yrs and Prairies want to to keep door knocking as an option and keep hunting open to locals that leases threaten. There is serious anti outfitter sentiment, we have seen it as many landowners wont allow outfitters, once we mention we are not outfitters permissionis granted. Its episode 708. There is some anti American sentiment too, US tariffs on cdn ag eg canola strengthen this, that's my observation.

On paying landowners it varies w province, its common in Ontario for hunting clubs/outfitters to pay farmers for access and its allowed. Its not legal in Saskatchewan or Alberta as i understand. Not sure about Manitoba.

We have seen green/brown jeans for last 5 yrs. We hunt late September to early October. Have also been stopped on the road. No issues but be aware.
One other item to add, if you fly out of Saskatoon expect to be interviewed by provincial and federal game wardens. They set up at baggage drop off and if you are flying w coolers etc they will check and they will make sure all the stories in your group are the same. You dont need someone bragging about limits and numbers etc it attracts attention. Dont know if its the same in Winnipeg calgary or Edmonton

Let me help you out, layouts suck. A frames are the king, just brush them well w whatever you can find :)

No colours, you are probably rt for travel to the US, I am cdn and the processing is fine for us as we stay in canada. We checked w federal game warden in canada and grinding is considered processed. I should have said that's for cdns.
Again great summary. We hunt N of Saskatoon at the northern most ag. One thing we have found is brushed in blinds work better in fields than layouts. Even when layouts are well grassed etc, birds flared.

Solid advice no colour's, a cpl of things to add. Competition is coming, last yr there were two outfitters and another DIY group. In past yrs we had the area to ourselves. You are rt about not supposed to pay landowners, we will offer some wine or beer or a little cash saying take your wife out for supper.
On birds , if you process them e.g. grind them they dont count towards possession. So when we get a pile of birds we will grind and freeze for trip back to ontario, its 30 hrs. Saw Ramsey russel a few yrs back in a diner so we must be in a good spot. And ya no morning amd afternoon hunts unless you use an outfitter, too much work. Cheers
Saw the show in nia falls, was disappointed that tyminski wasn't there but what a tight band, its a very rigid set list but they dont miss a beat and seem to enjoy playing. I have always liked them but Mrs ontario was familiar, now it all i hear around the house on her Playlist. Glad I got to see one of the premiere bluegrass bands
Watching this thread as i have tkts in July
For easy foolproof sharpener, get a worksharp and dont look back
Glad to hear the show reviews, will see her in a cpl of weeks. Really looking forward to it
Bonine for me. I can use scopalomine but some ppl have terrible reactions to it. Hallucinations etc, there have been law suits, go figure.
As others said, limit booze especially liquor
