Two Kansas Cocks
 
2 Attachment(s)
In December of 2010 I killed 4 roosters in 15 minutes just out side of Dodge city with my two Llewllins Judy and Parker. Two singles and one double using my 12ga DH. Two of the birds where second year, and dandys, so off to the taxidermist I went. Well they just showed up this week and I decided to build a case for them. I am happy how it turned out, although I don't think I want Mr. Swanson to inspect it too closely. Mind you I have seen his work.

As for your Llewllins - Judy and Parker.. Give them a hug and an extra treat from me tonight... It was pleasure to hunt over both of them. Thanks for that privilege....

As Bill is from Northern Michgan, I would assume the the Notice" sign is from the Turtle Lake Club in the club country of Mich, About 21,000 acres at last count. They still hunt deer the old-fashioned way - driven out to their blinds in a horse-drawn wagon

John,

When I was a young boy I use to roam the property next to Turtle lake. At last count they had 26,000 acres 18 members and 102 oil/gas wells. The membership roster is also interesting. There is some guy over there that owns some little trailer company named Freuhoff. I always wondered if any of there members lurked here.

John,

Those signs were put up in the 60's a friend of mine that use to be the Captain of the hunt at the Beaver Lake club gave it to me this last deer season There is a wonderful book written about Turtle lake written by Harry s New in the 20s
