He will be there. How old is your dog?

birdogg42

Hey Joe- I'm waiting for you to say your FC dogs are so much better season isn't over here till Jan 31st- how about you bring two of yours- say of equal age to mine- 20 and 5 months and we go head to head on wild pheasants I've access to a bit over 4 square miles of private property Forget Joe, LOL...

The next time I bread a dog, I wised up some and studied what works and bread to a derby that was the best young dog I had ever seen, that breeding produced over 50 championships and 12 national titles, not counting AKC, I think I may have gotten that one right! My next breeding was Selina to Saddl...

I was wondering about the magazine because i am in the fall issue. The Article about the Conservation Stewardship Program.
I am in the Missouri part. But you are right it is a very good magazine.

Does anyone know or have heard if Garmin is going to upgrade the Astro for next year? I am planning on getting one pretty soon and was wondering if they was gonna make any improvements to it? If so i will wait till then.

birdogg42

I was wondering the same thing as to how much it costs? How long are they gone. And who would be a good trainer to send a pointer with to get your dog into the most birds.

birdogg42

I just got the issue in the mail two days ago. The Fall Preview issue 2009. I sure would have figured it would have been out a little earlier, but oh well. I am still proud that a nobody birdhunter from Mo is in the magazine. Pg 97.

birddog42, Hank's out of a Rock Acre Buckwheat bitch. Buckwheat was Blackhawks sire. So, he's basically double bred Buckwheat. I may know your buddy. Does he run a brittany? There's a new fellow that started running this year. He's probably been to more trials than i have this year. He's from Atoka...

birdogg42

birdogg42, Ha! Man, you are talking my neck of the woods man. Atoka's about 15 to 20 minute drive for me. I have a couple buddies who live there. Nah, i think i'm going to keep Hank for awhile. I've placed him in two trials out of the six i've run him in. NSTRA that is. He placed in a AF puppy stak...

Anyone have pointers that have no known names in the pedigrees..I be interested in trying one if you have any pups... I am sure that good hunting lines have many known names in the pedigrees for that venue. But the names may not be common to the field trial world. All I am saying is, you can have a...

Anyone ever see Rockacre Blackhawk run? Ever see any of his off spring run (besides Strut)? What were they out of on the bottom side? Just wondering, I know he has been bred alot, just havent heard him mentioned in this thread?

OOPS i posted this in the wrong thread. Sorry

birdogg42

I have a friend who built his own, and the only suggestion he would probably make would be watch the weight - suspension issues and tire rubbing are a possibility. Tires rubbing on a ranger? that must have been a HUGE dog box. I can see maybe having too much weight in the bed where the front wheels...

Sorry for the hijack. Duane I would like to talk to you about a young dog I have. I haven't figured out the instant message thing. If you could instant message me your phone number I would really appreciate it. Thanks Dave Not a problem. This is the only place i get to talk and listen about differe...

I currently have a 500, I got the Browning 800, heated cab, dah dah dah... My soon-to-be-fiancee (LOL) got tired of riding in the cold and listening to me, so it was a early xmas gift... And I understand the deal with the cheap fixes, but I trial almost every weekend, and train 4-5 days a week. Thi...

I wasnt really looking for answer. Just wanting to hear peoples opinions.

Kyle, what did you order? 500,700,800? I have a 06 500. I just have a heritage box in mine. Those rangers will go just about anywhere!

birdogg42

Didnt mean to come off like an a$$ EZZY. I meant a line as a whole or if you seen a particular dog run then tell us who it was and why you liked him. I am sure there are elhews that have shitty noses, just like there are millers that cant run a lick. I just wanted to see what everyones opinion is. I...

I have this vest and love it! It is tough as nails, lightweight, and you can put your birds in from the front. Good deep pockets.

If this one wears out, I will buy another.

I get a call today from a friend in IL and he asks me if i am stranded in London. I tell him that i am not and he knew better than that but why did he ask?

birdogg42

went out yesterday hunted for four hours and found 8 coveys. Was a pretty good day. Then like a moron i went deer hunting that afternoon and didnt see anything!

birdogg42

Went out today and with the wind blowing 20 + mph the birds didnt want to sit very tight. Saw three coveys and never even tried to establish a point. Maybe the wind wont be blowing in the morning.

birdogg42

I am not a trialer, only been to a couple nstra trials. Could someone explain to me what exactly is singing to your dog? Maybe i do it to my dogs and dont realize it??

birdogg42

What would it hurt to feed one bag(40lbs) of game bird starter feed to adult birds???

birdogg42

Tails dont point birds or find them....... That said I know what ya mean... Mine shows both and they must mean sumthing to him.

Brent, sound like you had an interesting day! LOL Well, I hunted for four hours and found five coveys. The day didnt start as well as it sounded. I was ready to give two dogs away or just leave them out there in the field after the first thirty minutes. They pretty much said to heck with having mann...

birdogg42

what kind of water and feeders do you have in your johnny houses? They cant be on the floor, i would think they would poop all over them. thanks mike

birdogg42

I have a 93 chevy pick 4.3 v-6 up that is my work truck and i have 260,000 miles on it and it gets right at 20mpg. Doesn't use a drop of oil. Very good truck but it is only 2wd.

birdogg42

I believe these boys are looking at time in the pen. I believe they took dogs in three different counties. pretty low down if you ask me.

Mike

birdogg42

U know, I havent looked how far booneville is from the cape girardeau area but, there was a couple of guys who worked for a trash company that stole over 500 dogs from various people and just sold them to other people. It is a long shot but something to look into. Just thought i would throw that out...

birdogg42

have you guys got any plans on breeding ol jack?

birdogg42

I love that Jack dog. What is he out of?

birdogg42

Ray, I didnt take either of your responses as you being smart aleck. I see what you are saying about those two different lines. You seem like a fella that i would like to meet someday (i am married lol) and have a beer or three and talk birdodgs. I have both lines (elhew and miller) in my kennel rig...

birdogg42

i wasnt trying to be a smart a$$. i do not trial, everything i have learned about lines and breeders has been from boards like this one and from other fellow birddoggers. thanks for the replies though.

birdogg42

Who produced more winners in trials (any venue) Wehle or Ferrell Miller? Just wondering?

birdogg42

If you dont have the habitat there for the birds to survive after release then you are wasting your money. JMO

Bo i did that a week and a half ago. Are you a member there? Maybe you could pm Frank for me.

Is anyone here a member? I registered for membership there and got an email saying i had to wait to be approved and i havent heard anything yet. It has been two weeks and i was just wondering what the deal was? Thanks Mike
