This part is official....I should be posting more events in the next week. Hope some of you can make it

This just in!!!!!
Saturday Sept 13th
There will be a UKC Sanctioned Junior Handler Event Sponsored by MI Gun Dogs club

Followed by a fun match (conformation) This will be open to all breeds Intact or Not intact....Sponsor to be announced

There will be a Fully guided spring 08 turkey hunt to raffle off. Here is the ad for the hunt.

I'll be offering fully guided hunts again this year on over 2400+ acres hunting different private properties in 4 counties.
Montcalm, Gratiot, Ionia and Isabella.
I've also picked up a few new properties this winter that have yet to see a bird hunter.

With this mild winter we're having, the survival rate is going to be outstanding and I'm expecting a banner Spring season !

Last Spring was the best season yet with 14 birds bagged on 15 hunts.
If memory serves, 5 or 6 made the book.

I've already began scouting and am seeing large flocks of Turkeys with some exceptional Longbeards.

I've also upgraded " Thunderdome " to a 24' Nomad with all the trimmings. TV/VCR, Heat, Frige, Coffee, Snacks etc.....
She's comfortable and sleeps 2 nicely.
Your welcome to bunk here at the house, or there's a motel 5 blocks uptown that runs about 40 bucks a night. Your choice.

Ok, now. This is hunting guys. My #1 priority is the quality of your hunt and I do my homework.
I put in countless hours of scouting. Your hunt actually starts 3 days
before you even arrive with me scouting out the different properties
again for the current location of the birds, the preferred food sources
and roosts. I have many different areas to hunt so as to not over hunt
any one farm so the birds won't be pressured or call shy.

I also try not to hunt any given property more than 3-4 times the
entire season, with alot of farms only being hunted twice. To me, this
ensures a quality hunt and good flocks of birds for the next season.
I'll also have pop-up, water proof, tent blinds set up and ready to go
the night before you guys get here.

DISCLAIMER :
We will be hunting wild birds. I cannot guarantee a kill.
If anybody promises a kill, they are either pulling your leg, or hunting behind a fence.
I do neither.
I've guided alot of guys from right here on the site, many are repeat clients. Most have killed a bird, some have not.
I encourage you to check my references with the successful and un-successful hunters alike before booking a hunt with me.
References are availabe upon request.

All I can promise is to do my best doing what I do best:
Calling and Hunting Spring Gobblers.

This is your hunt and I can tailor it any way you'd like.
Run and gun.
Walk and Call.
Sit and Call.
Morning and afternoon hunts with a nap after lunch, or
Hard core gobbler chase'in all day hunting. It's up to you.

Some guys just like to sip a cup of coffee and listen to the woods wake up while I do my thing.
Others like to bring their calls and participate in the calling.
No problem, again, this is your hunt.

I'd also be happy to make this a learning experience and pass on what I've been taught and learned over the years if you wish.

I'm currently on Pro-Staff for Woodhaven Custom Calls as well as many
of the top manufactures in the business and give seminars/teach the art
of calling and hunting deer and turkeys all over the country.

For those of you that have never watched a sunrise in the Spring Turkey
woods and listened to the thundering gobble of a Longbeard greeting a
new day, or, had an old Boss Gobbler come in at full strut gobbling his
head off are in for something that you'll never forget and one of the most exciting hunting experiences you'll ever have.
There's nothing like it on Gods green earth.

To book a hunt, feel free to shoot me a PM or clicking on the Turkey Hunting banner will bring bring up the PM feature.

Price for a fully guided hunt is 150.00 per gun, per day. OR 2 guys, 2 days for 500.00.
This includes food, lodging and guide. ( Me )
All you'll need to bring is your shoot'in iron, camo, and be ready to hunt !

Wow Thom that all sounds great! That weekend couldn't come any sooner!!

Looks like dock diving is cancelled for now. I will see what I can do to get it replaced. Might be able to get a dock and pool in w/o it being a sanctioned event. Something like the GR setup was. But the rest is still on I will update when I know more.

Saturday Rock n Roll K9's will also be putting on an show Times to be anounced.

Also I am thinking of a name for the event....

How about?

Flint goes to the dogs!!!!!

OK the name is set. Most of the events are set.

If you want to view a flier of the event

www.eastflintlionsclub.com look under the events and news section

Just added will be agility demos..working on the details of it butit might end up being an instructional class type. Dont think it will be an actual fun run but if your comming I am sure you can speak with the person putting it on and go from there

Trying to get shot, micro chip, CERF, and cardio clinics

Those in the Genesee county area keep an eye out on Sept 9th.

I will be on channel 12 news at noon with Max and his owner Mike

I want to thank them for promoting the event.

Just a random suggestion...

If dock jumping is still a no-go, could we get some cheap kiddie pools to set up for dog cooling stations? Either that or just some hose hookups.

Might be a good idea considering the numerous events going on.

kel thanks for the suggestion already on that

Looks like the Micro chip clinic is a go

If all works out we are adding weightpull, terrier racing and possibly flyball. We should have obidence in some form or another as well.

wow this sure sounds like a great event. hope we can make it.

Weightpull is a Go. It will not be a true competition but it will be there to try with lots of different size harnesses.
