[QUOTE="BillR, post: 1831537, member: 462"] I wish i had some pictures of my setup when I was doing some serious doggin with my stepson who was just as serious about it as I was. Maybe even a bit more so at times. I didn't like rain and he didn't seem to mind it. We used a 4 dr short box 4X4 with a topper. Had two PD swivel benches in the back with an easy up. Cooler with sandwiches and beverages and lots of bottled water. Another cooler with ammo. Gets pretty hot out there at times and even temp sensitive ammo can go a bit weird if sitting in the sun too long while waiting for a dog to pop up. The easy up solved that problem and two benches fit nicely under one. Other things needed were spotting scopes, range finders, metal can for empties. (Always pick up your brass, really ****es me off when I find a pile of brass lying in a dog town. Show some respect to the land) Bino's are also needed. Maybe even more so than a spotting scope. I always wore long pants and long sleeve UV blocking light weight shirts. And this is going to sound dumb but a large brim straw hat. Keeps the head cool and the sun off. Ya SD gets hot and seems to get even hotter in a dog town. And if there is no breeze its even worse. The great thing about having two people is one can spot and the other shoot till the barrels get hot and then you can switch. Or if it is the time of year when the pups are first out and really stupid and range isn't a problem you can both shoot and switch guns. I also kept a stand up gun rack in the back and we could keep our extra guns on it cooling off in the shade. Man I need to get back into serious doggin again. Starting to miss it just posting about it. [/QUOTE]
