you cannot beat quail hunting...good pictures and waiting on the storey mike...charlie

[Bruce Day]

I have my workhorse Pointer Bert plus a 17 week old Llwellin setter Fielder. She is finding birds and pointed a covey today. I like having too quality bird dogs and she is developing nicely. Nothing makes a young dog faster than teaming with an experienced older dog and getting on wild birds at an early age.

[Mills Morrison]

Awesome!

[Gerald McPherson]

Bruce; Is 17 weeks correct?

[Bruce Day]

Born July 23.

Independently finding and holding quail out here. Bert backing.

Second photo , pointing dead.

[Michael Kitterman]

I live in Oklahoma, you must have been out with the Grand National guys. I hear the bird count and hunting was good. Congrats on a good hunt!

[Gary Laudermilch]

Beautiful pup, Bruce. No better way to make a bird dog than starting them young on wild birds. With the right genes they will make themselves with just a bit of guidance along the way. Looking good!

[Mike Franzen]

I can’t leave Oklahoma without a cowboy hat can I?

[Dave Tatman]

Goes great with a long black duster, Mike. Right out of Central Casting!!

Dave

[Eric Eis]

Mike that hat, "fits" you. Good choice

[charlie cleveland]

mike you need to get in the movies with that hat...charlie

[Mike Franzen]

Charlie, you’re my agent. Book me anywhere you can. You get 20%.

[Bruce Day]

Xxx

[Jim DiSpagno]

And that’s why your pants don’t fit LOL

[Reggie Bishop]

Texas size burger in OK!

[Mike Franzen]

But ..... I did order the half size fries to go with the Big John! Making good food choices is important to hunters.

[Dave Tatman]

Powerful choice, Mike. You should be very proud of your attention to healthy eating. :rotf:

Dave

[Bruce Day]

Mike saved half of that huge hamburger for my poor neglected puppies.

[Gerald McPherson]

Bruce; Black and white pointers used to be call Rip Raps down here. Nice pups.

[Mike Franzen]

The little 17 week old Setter is going to be a superstar. She’s already pointing, fetching, hunting dead and comes when called (usually). I don’t think I’ve ever seen a better dog at this age. I hope we’re going to hearing and seeing a lot more of Fielder.

[Richard Flanders]

Mike: you wear that hat around and before you know it Robert Duval will be callin'....!

[Bruce Day]

You mean this hat?

[Rick Riddell]

you guys are great, looks like a wonderful time!

[Mike Franzen]

That is Miguel el Diablo. Infamous member of the Parker Brothers gang. Very dangerous.

[Bruce Day]

We were in Comanche country. Here is Tom Wooden standing next to a fierce Comanche warrior.

[Todd Poer]

Clearly doing is Quanah Parker imitation. Quanah was a great Commanche chief that actually prospered pretty well when hostilities ceased. Wonder if he owned any Parker shotguns. He actually used to hunt with Teddy Roosevelt.

[Bruce Day]

We think Mike/ Miguel/ Quanah might move out there. We found him an older house with 5 bedrooms, modern kitchen, 10 foot ceiling well made with guest house and machine shed on three acres on a hilltop in town for $168,000. Nice house. We’ll come stay with him.

[Mike Franzen]

There are worse things than being a cowboy. I do love Oklahoma.

[Richard Flanders]

You wear that big hat around and Robert Duvall will start considering a remake of Lonesome Dove....

[Kenny Graft]

I can't wait till I retire and can go state hopping for birds! SXS OHIO

[Mike Poindexter]

For all you guys who do the Sharptail Shootout. Found this on another forum. Purportedly in Montana. Enjoy.
