Does anyone have a line on some pigeons for training? I'm in Skagit county and have a pointer pup I want to start training.

Snow Mountain Game Farm has birds. I purchased pheasant from them for training once. A little spendy but good birds.

I second Brian at Sno Mountain. 
Take one new person out hunting every year.

If you have never gone after them yourself its a lot of fun. Night hunts with a smelt and a good flashlight.
