Awesome...........as always!

how does it feel......hunting behind A NATIONAL CHAMPION????? Big Congrats and I hope you enjoy pheasant season!

I would tend to tell you to talk to Larry Lowell and Carl Porter in CA and call Keith and Robbi Gulledge at Blue Dawn Kennels in Madison, KS. I have owned far too many Greif lines, Slick lines, Clown, Saddle. Overall, I may hunt differently from you, out of a 4 wheeler or off horse, but I sure love...

I just bought a Polaris Ranger.....it came with net type open doors, but there are optional cab set ups including a full cab with doors.

big country.......few birds........dog covers tons of ground so I don't have to...........UTV hopefully won't throw me off or have high vet bills like my horses did......not really excited to cover 15 miles a day like I did when my knees were younger........thanks for your input though

kbshorthairs

Big Congrats! Good luck at Eureka!

kbshorthairs

The bigger question is who cares?

My eyes are kinda Hazel with a hint of bloodshot......especially after a little crown or extended periods of time on this forum.

Psalm 46:10 starts out by saying that God said "Be still and know that I am God" John names his dogs Uodibar's (fill in the blank) and his horses and ranch are known by the brand UD-. He has hats made with that brand on the front and the words "Be still and know......" embroidered on the back. I kn...

I agree.....this should be interesting.

OK.......OK.....stop the PMs. I was only kidding. :D :D I just got off the phone with John Rabidou and passed along how much that you all love him. I told him that he could expect a monument built in his honor at the Bechtel ranch upon his arrival! He was embarrassed by the outpouring of support by ...

I guess my attempt at humor failed.

I am very familiar with Senor Rabidou.......be still and know.

kbshorthairs

So who is the Rabidou character???? Has anyone checked him out????? Is he qualified to judge a good bird dog???????? Reminds me of these replacement refs that the NFL has been using. Probably some last minute hack that raises goats or something. :roll: :roll: :roll:

I used to help with summer camp up around Valentine Nebraska.....right on the Niobrara river. Pretty area! Looking forward to seeing some more pics Coop!

What a change......most people warn me to stay away from their wife!!!

It is funny that you guys mentioned over/unders. That is how all this started. I wanted a "nice" shotgun after all these years of regular guns. Then I started talking about the side by side UTV for about $16 grand. Her eyes widened as she said first you wanted a shotgun and now you have switched to ...

My wife went with me to check out a new hunting spot this week. No cattle have been in the area and it is grown up more than usual. As we drove across three different areas she became concerned about the possibility of losing Bella due to the millions of places she could be hidden. I casually mentio...

kbshorthairs

you know what they say about opinions, but here is my .02. Paso's work really hard, but don't cover much ground due to their size. Running dogs and scouting is better handled by a horse that can cover some ground.....especially if you are a big guy. As for breeding horses......by the time you calcul...

Awesome pics and beautiful country!!! Something is wrong though.......that one dog has a long tail and keeps messing up the pics of that stylish Danny dog.

Just kiddin.....am envious though. I don't think I could haul my fat a$$ up those chuckar hills though!!!

kbshorthairs

I am not set in stone about what to get. I have accumulated several inexpensive guns over the years that are all right handed and pretty well hit what I shoot at. The only negative I remember was my first shotgun as a young boy.....a mossberg pump that allowed a little powder flash to hit my cheek e...

Others have given the basics of a good FT mount. Here's more advice......Don't try and make one....purchase one. This is wise advice! Buy a horse from a pro handler (that you trust). A horse that has seen everything and been everywhere. The money you spend over what a less experienced horse costs w...

kbshorthairs

Thanks for the replies fellas. I would love to have a custom gun as well, but budget constraints won't allow that now.....or probably ever. Cody, you answered my main question. Can you tell much difference between the two......I have been making due my entire life so I doubt that I will notice any d...

I would like to "treat" myself with a nice shotgun. I am left eye dominant and shoot long guns left handed. It is my understanding that all Beretta over/under shotguns have 1/4" right hand cast. A gentleman at the Beretta gallery said that they often "bend" the stocks for customers like me, by wrapp...

Good looking country and a great looking dog! Great job Lantz!

kbshorthairs

I would think you made a time machine.

I'm pretty sure that ugly sucker was a 1988 model.

your pics always make me feel like I am there.......thanks for sharing!

if you've picked a breeding your like........just pick the one that you think looks best........lots of trainers talk about how fantastic dogs were the left over that no one picked from a litter.

Congrats Andy!! I watched him go in the limited. On his first find, his bracemate failed to back, and ran a couple of circles around Dez and finally kinda pointed. About that time the bird flushed, all this time with the other handler hollering here, here, here!! Your boy stood the whole thing!! 8)...

Several interesting points of view have been posted here. I can understand both sides. I have sold a few litters and bought a few puppies and in my experience, ego is at the basis of most of these disputes. In my personal experience, people with Show backgrounds are more demanding about the naming o...

kbshorthairs

are we going to have to start referring to you as MR. Cooper now??? Big congrats brother.....hope he gets that last point soon!

kbshorthairs

Never a topic where someone isn't crowing about their game being better or their breed being better. People crack me up. I have seen some pretty impressive AA GSPs.

kbshorthairs

Congrats Coop!

I hate that the quail and pheasant population has been trending down, but this morning the skies around my house were black with geese! Within 3 miles of my house, I probably saw 10,000 geese and 300 ducks. It sure would be nice to have a similar comeback of the upland species.

kbshorthairs

I can't answer this question........my dog points ALL the birds.

I would have to agree with that!!!! Now if I could get a job where I wasn't getting home after dark every night maybe I could go hunt some birds too!

oh yeah.....he saw the inside of the house lots....and motels....and living quarters.....was spoiled from the day he was born.

After which shot did your dog look at you with disgust?

Admittedly, I haven't spent the amount of time on this forum that I used to, but over the last several days the threads that I have read left me scratching my head. :roll: I prefer to use this forum as a place to exchange information and benefit from the wisdom of older more experienced dog people. ...

The thing that kills me that people never understand........whether it is politics, religion, or bird dogs......you are never going to sway someone that has a different opinion. People love to try......but it isn't going to happen. :roll:

Everyone has different opinions about dog food. The wisest tips I have received are to find a food that your dog likes, does well on, and that is readily available in your area. I have fed Purina Pro Plan Performance for years. From the time the pup is weaned til they pass away. I feed pups twice a ...

Looks like a great morning was had by all!!! Doc, did it make it hurt worse when he called you Mr. Favor????

kbshorthairs

Part of the problem is the lack of internet service at the grounds......cell phone service is spotty at best. Most info comes from people making calls when they have a chance to run into town etc.

kbshorthairs

I've learned to be far more cautious about where and from whom I get a puppy.

kbshorthairs

I see you are in Enid. I have bought birds from Rick Miles in Okeene and he offers hunts as well. I am not sure about his prices, but he is fairly close to you. I think his business is called Triple R Hunting services.......might be worth a call.
