Enjoyed the read! The lore, nostalgia and great tradition of Bobwhite quail, bird dogs, horses and shotguns put into words!

I wandered around Kerr's a time or two when I was a kid. If you liked nice firearms it was the ultimate candy store, and the people behind the counter were nice also. I saw the photo of Alex and Ken Barnes. Ken is a very interesting guy. I have talked to him a bit about the good old days of duck hunting in California. He is quite the skeet shooter and he still writes occasional articles for the Bakersfield Californian. Boy, have times ever changed.

Bring those pointers to the U.P. and lets see if we can make a grouse dog or two out of them

Thanks for a great read Chuck. It makes me wonder though where did all go off the rails. Some of the things most celebrated back then are so disparaged today.

My Stud Rip is a son of Caladens Storm Trooper handled by Mike Tracy and Luke Eisenhart out of the great Guardrail owned by Gene Casale who went into the HOF under the handle of the HOF George Tracy
Here is a portrait of Guardrail hanging at Ames ...... Lots of stories from George from this dog |
