I guess I would have to say that I am in agreement with Stoneface. College is a huge waste of money and time. I have a degree in finance with minors in marketing and business management which is strange because at my university you only need 12 upper level hours in your core courses for a major but ...

Basic field craft is helpful. Know where your target animal is watering, what they are eating, what time of the day they are eating and watering, know that certain plants can hydrate you and give back nutrients you spend hunting and walking, know that certain other plants are effective medicinally a...

Are you sure that pup has some GSP in her? Looks like a straight HTA dog to me.

tommyboy72

I used to do it all the time back when I was single. It was dark in the bar, dark outside, dark in the car, dark in the bedroom and she was gone before I woke up. Oh you mean dogs.

Complain until he just decides it isn't worth the trouble. That's what happens here.

Check these out. Been wanting some for awhile just never have pulled the trigger on buying them yet.

I watch Ax Men, Swamp People, Sons of Guns and American Guns religiously. I used to tune into Bayou Billionaires and My Big Redneck Vacation as well as My Big Redneck Wedding as well. They remind me of some of my family back in Missouri. :lol: My wife does watch Teen Mom and Cupcake Wars but I go in...

I like Pawn Stars but I hate, hate, hate Hardcore Pawn. They are the biggest rip offs I have ever seen. My wife watches it or I wouldn't even tune into that show. Hardcore Pawn reminds me a lot of the pawn shops around where I live. At least on Pawn Stars they try and give them a reasonable price fo...

Ultracarry I realize you are from California so you know everything but I was just trying to explain to you how the court system actually works here in Oklahoma not sway your opinion one way or the other.

Well here is a different way to look at it. If the officer completes the documents, submits them to his supervisor who approves them, forwards them to the district attorney who believes they have a case, then the attorney puts everything on the table, then the defense attorney takes his clients (de...

Joe, just curious if you have to ask for your testicles back before you leave the house as well? Guess we see who runs the show at your house. Your grandfather would be ashamed of you. What kind of Mexican male are you? :P Just kidding Joe, I am extremely lucky in that I have a wife who is very unde...

tommyboy72

Glad to hear you got her in Joe. Congratulations. You could always get you a Brittany and build a big wheel in the backyard that should be good for several days of entertainment. :D I am sure she will have the opportunity to learn and come back a much more rounded and beter dog for it. Without getti...

You have a scatterbred dog, I have HTA bred to several different lines.

tommyboy72

I like it. That is going to be my next purchase in the future. Some type of AR platform rifle. Not sure what yet but I want one.

tommyboy72

Just was curious about what everyone else was shooting besides your bird guns. For instance I have a .45 acp that I have turned into a sort of project gun and have been working on for a couple of months now. Here she is. Polished the barrel throat, recoil plug retainer, barrel, feed ramp, installed ...

She looks good Joe. She couldn't have went to a better home.

I work at the sheriff's office where I live and one of our deputies recently passed all the requirements to become a falconer here in Oklahoma. He has a hawk, a red tail, I believe. He was allowed to trap it wild himself. Not sure about where you live but I believe here in Oklahoma it took the deput...

Probably going to have to continue put out feed for them to supplement what they will find in the wild and make sure they have plenty of access to water, which is the biggest problem where I live. Keep the predator population to an absolute minimum including coyotes, skunks, coons, snakes, fire ants...

Not sure about a neuter but a spay at my vet cost me $88 for the spay job and another $8 for the rabies shot last year. She based it on the size of my dog which was 43 lbs. She told me neutering was quite a bit cheaper.

tommyboy72

I did not think about it Ron because I was only breeding to keep a pup for myself which I ended up not liking. I had positive feedback on all the pups except one which was the one Priariefire had, even had positive feedback on the one I kept for myself that I gave away I just personally did not like...

tommyboy72

Joe, concerning your pedigree, obviously Reb and Annie are not trial dogs which I have never made any qualms about, in your 3rd and 4th generations on top all of those dogs are competition dogs in AF, NSTRA, and AKC. Kat and Comanche George both have placements in NSTRA and walking trials. Rocky the...

Join the club Mark, I have been doing the same thing for a year and a half now. I love that dog. He has a darn nice personality.

tommyboy72

I think what Joe meant was that he felt like Scott took a personal jab at the breeding on his pup because of what Joe stated about HTA lines and then he felt like Scott bailed on the discussion. I am not sure of what happened and don't want to get into it with anyone on here, I just got back from a ...

No offense but that is why this is a FORUM and not a professional blog. People are allowed to post their opinions and personal experiences as it has related them. It does not have to be documented, unequivocal, factual information. That is the good thing about a forum that you are free to discuss yo...

I think many cases are as jc buttry mentioned that people misrepresent the bloodline. Many people call a dog HTA when it may be only 1/4 HTA meaning one of his gr parents may have been HTA yet they will call him an HTA dog. Jc Buttry is a perfect example as I have seen him mention his dog as a fidd...

It could be worse. You could have done what I did. I gave my best friend JCButtry on this site a pup.

DG it isn't so much the references to GSP's that Pointer folks mind so much but the fact that you set a bad precedent for allowing the Brittany people to chime in as well.

tommyboy72

You could probably get ahold of some fairly good Additions Go Boy line pups as well.

tommyboy72

I hear a lot of people speak highly of Blackhawk dogs. I have no experience with them but just by looking at a pedigree he looks like a Fiddler/Miller dog to me.

Thanks, I appreciate the feedback.

I have some feral pigeons laying eggs as well. I also have one who has already hatched out a chick and has another egg I am assuming will be hatching soon as well. My question is, is there anything special I need to do for the chicks to keep them alive other than let their mother care for them?

tommyboy72

The Whippoorwill line of dogs are nice too. Seems to be a lot of this in the Phantom's Kennel line of dogs which Gotpointers has some of as well.

I had a 16 gauge in the Sportsman model. I shot it a bit and then found out the value on it so I fixed it up a bit with some wood and metal refinishing and sold it to my uncle. A real pain in the "bleep" to reassemble once you get it apart completely. Good luck if you break it completely down and en...
