I am also going to clip the hair between the pads to help with the ice and snow balling. Will be in SE S Dakota somewhere between Mitchell and Huron.

Harold, you are a seasoned hunter and I'm sure you'll handle a new locale well...and your dogs are obviously fit and ready to go. I hope the weather conditions you encounter are favorable. Pheasants have a way of holding tight after a fresh snow...
