Thanks Todd and Bill and everyone who votes!

[Harold Lee Pickens]

Done, i told my wife there was a magazine called "Garden and Gun" and she thought I was joking.

[Daniel Carter]

Mine seems to have gone through on my sons face book account so it will look like an unsolicited stranger. Mills you should win hands down on merit alone.

[Mills Morrison]

Thank you all!

Harold, Garden and Gun has proved to be a great publication. I subscribed when it was displayed at an early Vintage Cup tent, just on a whim. It's no Double Gun Journal, but something interesting appears in each issue.

[Todd Poer]

Garden and Gun is like Southern Living for Guys. https://gardenandgun.com/ It started predominantly focuses Sporting Life in SE from Texas to Virginia and anything in between. It is now growing. Surprised Harold had not heard of it since they did do a piece on Greenbrier. BTW I love a mint julep and supposedly The Greenbrier is where the mint julep was created.

They have had some really neat articles on sxs's and so forth and hunting pieces especially on quail hunting. To some extent they still promote mystic of classic things like sxs's and blend it in. They did one article about a book review that caught my attention about Hemingways guns. They showed pictures of the gun Ernest used to take the family exit with and what was believed to be the torched remnants of a sidelock from gun since his son destroyed the gun.

Recipes are pretty interesting as well. They even have a recipe of blending some bourbons that is supposedly a close imitation to Pappy Van Winkle, just saw this and must have missed it n the magazine. I love my bourbon but have not had any Pappy and not sure its superiority is worth the price, but it maybe interesting to try. BTW this is also from a guy that doesn't mind a nice blended white dog.

BTW Mills you hunker down during the big blow coming your way.

Nothing against any breed of dog but would love to see a true field bred type dog win. I think there must be some Russian meddling in the process if Facebook is only way to vote and I think a Pekingese wearing a sweater vest is in the lead. I think Mueller needs to switch gears and investigate this since its happening in real time. Seriously if you can train a Pekingese to point or retrieve for a half day afield then I stand corrected.

Several years ago I read an article about a guy that trained his cocker spaniel to be a squirrel dog. He trained it to tree a squirrel, easy enough, and then trained it to then get in a burlap bag laid on the ground to conceal itself When squirrel would move again he trained dog to then run out to other side of tree so squirrel would present a shot. Now that would be worthy.

I don't do facebook but I wish ya luck!

The last issue of Garden & Gun had an interesting article about duck hunting and duck clubs on the Outer Banks of NC.

This yankee subscribes to Garden & Gun, but could not submit a vote for lack of a Facebook account. Good luck!

[Mills Morrison]

Thank you all for the support. Don't anyone go to the trouble of getting Facebook just for this.

[Daniel Carter]

I do not have Face book but my son uses my lap top to check his account, when i voted it went through on his. That would be a way to do it if you have access to a computer that is used on Face book.

[Mills Morrison]

Thanks!

[keavin nelson]

And one from me Mills. Now get to training that pup, and he can train the boy!

Mills,

Vote cast! I'm a subscriber to G&G. It helps to remind me here in Missouri, that I'm a Southerner by birth (Virginia!!!).

Good luck -- great photo.

[Mills Morrison]

Thank you all!

[Dave Tatman]

At some point, Garden and Gun had a cover photo of Shadow Oak Bo, the English Setter grandfather of my setter pup.

Ha! Don't sell yourself short and the South is growing in territory all the time. Btw Missouri is considered part of the South so your good to go. Besides we let Missouri in the SEC, so there is your bona fide. Plus you do have a decent barbecue culture there. All of my family is from Kentucky but grew up in Alabama. Push come to shove when needed I can even translate cajun, redneck, and hill billy. Some say redneck and hill billy are the same but that would be like saying Mandarin is the same as Vietnamese.

BTW Roll Tide. Will be interested in seeing what Missouri has in the tank. Funny thing my new next door neighbors just moved from Missouri. Fun times.
