Yet another salute from the International Watta Dawg Ace Foundation. Sure be nice to have a disc of the "Collected Works of Ace the Watta Dog" archives. I wish I had a Go-Pro when Mick was with me. Thanks, Brent.

And finally, Ace. He’ll be 4 in April, & this was his 4th season. He’s REALLY getting good now. We challenge each other at times, but for the most part, he does a super nice job working with me. I can tell his “awareness that I exist & am part of his team” improved this season. Throughout the...

And... They have no peer pressure to make them want to abide by the hunting societal rules; they come, they spend, and they toss their social and actual trash as they leave. The might be gun owners, but they are not hunters by any definition I have experienced. But they are not restricted to...

I use Lexol for conditioning leather jackets. https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-d&q=lexol

The two guys I used to hunt with regularly both used 28ga. They met through me, and each were more accurate shots than I am. (I'm ok, but not great). I think they wanted to see how well they shot as they progressed from 12 and 20 gauges, to the "?BPS" 28s. I know shells were more expensive for...

Piper reminds me, again, of just how determined a good bird dog is--whether it is older or young. Thanks for the video.

RH? read the rest of the thread. Fully explained. :) Do well.

On the other hand, the video was like meeting an old friend. I actually remembered a couple of the guys from when I first saw the show--gotta be forty years ago, maybe more. The owner of the hunting preserve looks like he came out of Central Casting for rich, over-fed, and self-indulged land...

Uh, have you checked Otis for amphetamine use? His eyes look a little manic. I don't think he's ready for pictures, he wants to hunt. Nice images, good hunt.

Dohyde? FYI: https://www.gundogmag.com/editorial/breed-profile-german-wirehaired-pointer/176197 Pretty accurate, judging by the three I've had over the past 30+ years. All were terrific, but each different. Two females, one male--all hunted, the females were less rambunctious. I luv 'em...

https://gem.app/product/red-wing-redwing-irish-setter-green-katanga Did a search (more than I expected) and came up with these. They are very close, if not the same model, as I had. My boots were Irish Setter Red Wing Kangaroo, with eyelets all the way up the shaft and dark soles. Strong...

Hey LC, yeah, well...twice last Century I took it in, once in Illinois and then, Wisconsin. Neither smith could find a specific issue. So I added cheap insurance. (It serves a second purpose. With my good looks, and striking athletic poise afield, more than a few folks have been caught...

I love that shotgun. Twice since 1970 when I bought it, the forearm has dropped off the gun, each time in thick grass and weeds. Can't find a fault and it is solid all the rest of the time. But, it's an AYA and I doubt I could find a replacement forearm in the U.S., so a zip tie, carefully...

Early marriage, these were a huge luxury, but I scraped up enough $ to get them. They had to last about 10 years and many miles. I wish I could recall all the memories they contributed to.

Once again, RUN, RAINEY, RUN by Mel Ellis From Amazon listing, (but shop around, used prices vary widely), here's a link to another book vendor: https://www.biblio.com/booksearch/author/ellis-mel/title/run-rainey-run 5.0 out of 5 stars A Sportsman's Dog story...by a remarkable man...

That's a nice, rational, response; just not satisfying. Hunters want to be able to help save birds. It is frustrating to be told there's nothing we can do. Thanks, WDM

The corporate lawyers may have gotten into the engineering discussions. They're just goofy enough for something like that. (Looked up the gun,only found this regarding the safety: Auto Safety The tang-mounted safety automatically resets ot the "On" position when the action is opened.)

I hope you have good health, good happenings in your lives, and a wonderful 2023. Time flies. Make memories now. Best wishes.

Every interaction you and your family have with him is a form of training. Remember, the whole WORLD is new to him in a sense. Don't wear him out; fifteen minutes a session is fine, several times a day The deal for him is "this is play". It will be a while before you insist it is work. He...
