Default Well,its not a Parker ....but tis the season!

So maybe I'll get away with it just once ....What can you say ,when on Christmas Eve your twelve year old boy says "Dad can we grab my gun and take Heiko for a walk ?" ....nothing was harmed only the bud laden top of an old spruce ,Heiko had lots of exercise on the fresh hare footings and one point ,he's the same age as Jack (my boy ) and other than a loss of hearing and sight he still got it ,the old gun is a Featherweight 20 ejector ,a incredibly generous surprise gift from our good buddy Brian Hornacek ,a restoration /slight upgrade is in order but it sure puts a smile on his face .

Merry Christmas boy's!!!

It's difficult to think of many things being much better than hunting with your kids.

My son is 31 and spending a week elk hunting with him every September is the highlight of my year.

A DD is the perfect dog for the boy, he will go wherever the boy wants to go, and hunt whatever the boy wants to hunt. Ah to be young again. Mark
