Beautiful Dan. I am still kicking myself hard over the number of aYa and Arrietta I passed up over the years because I thought, "That's so expensive, I'm not spending $2500 on a used 28 gauge..."

I worked in a shop that sold AYA guns. As I recall, the #2 was bought wholesale for about $2300 and I never took advantage. The #4 was under two grand. A friend sold me his #2 .410 for about $2600, just months before they started selling new for over $7000. It happened very fast.

Kansas wild bird hunting
I have hunted Kansas for many years starting in 2008. When Ruby my Gordon setter was 10 months old, we had a great 6 full days in Hill City area Kansas. I got my first double on wild Quail over Ruby...I miss that girl. I lost her a month ago at 14 years and 9 months. Kansas is on track after the years long drought and I have joined a face book blog for Kansas hunting and folks are doing very well now out there. Its time to take my two young setter pups out this coming November....(-:

Kenny, did not know that sweet, old Ruby had passed. She was such a nice old gal. So sorry to hear this, I know you and Kim were heartbroken.

Kenny, I’m so sorry to hear about Ruby. She played her position and did her job nobly for many years. My thoughts are with you and Kim. Thank goodness for your crazy pups to fill the void. And those two are on their way to being fine bird dogs in their own right!
See you in a couple weeks. Dave
