Re: Shadow Oak Bo and Highground Jax Jabba
I am no expert by any means and I haven't seen either dog. In terms of a national championship, I would think Bo would have a little advantage or Jabba, because Bo was born and raised in the West Tennessee area. Jabba has to make the adjustment of coming from the West. It is a tremendous accomplish...

There is none. You probably have an hour drive east at least to get into birds. The further east you go the better hunting you can into. Fort Collins is just as much city as the subburbs of denver. There is some waterfowl hunting around there but far and few between and very expensive.
