My wife says I'm not allowed to hunt Porky Hill anymore. We where there last weekend with the dogs, and both my Setters got into a Porky. I dispatched the Porky with my new 1911, but having to pull quils with the wife, is something I don't want to experience again. She had more of a fit about it than the dogs did. |

Again I am real sorry about missing opening day weekend, you know the other day if I had been carrying.... Anyway leave some beer for me and also is Brian donating ammo for the silent auction? If so we need to figure a way to meet up for me to take to the Vintagers. |

I went to Montana for the first couple of weeks of September. Hunted several days and had one spectacualar afternoon. That afternoon I got eight partridge, seven over my pointing and backing dogs, and all retrieved to hand. Shot my Parker O Frame 16 gauge and brass shells loaded with black powder and 1oz of #7s. I forgot my camera but took some pictures with my Blackberry. If I can figure out how to get them out of the Blackberry and into the computer I will post them here. I hunted Block Management Areas and had good results.
It is only six weeks untill quail season opens here in Texas! My wife and I also went to Yellowstone for a couple of days, drove over Beartooth pass, and attended the French Brittany Club annual get together. I love the Fall! Best, Mike |

Mike,
Send yourself an email from your Chokeberry. Before sending attach a file and search for the photos. They should be easy to find... Mark |

I'll have to check the spelling for the Chiggers in the Tar Heel State- had a TDY at Camp LeJeune -Court House Bay sector- the chiggers were so bad down there in the summer months, plus the 90 % humidity as well- Murfreesborough I think is correct spelling-So I can relate to your story.
Not a grouse man- our two week early "nuisance goose" season ended down here on the 15th- when grouse opens, also squirrels and either sexed wild turkey (NOT the 101 proof version however)-- As far as "Porkys" and the bird dogs- a 1911 A-1 in .45 ACP would sure stop a porky or a raccoon cold-and it might be "declasse" to dispatch either varmint with a fine DHE 28 bore grouse gun. I have been very lucky (so far) as none of my dogs have ever messed with either a skunk or a porky. One wild animal, maybe others like a wolverine, that will attack from above and kill porkys is a fisher- faster than greased lightning too. |
