Jim,
Good to see you here. Let me introduce this guy to you all. He's a African Professional hunter than has forgotton more about guns and loads than we will ever know. His knowledge is beyond reproach. Presently he is supposed to be writting a book on guns and loads. I believe he's also giuded in alaska and lives in Washington state when not in Africa. A well educated gentleman that does not dwell on speculation. This guy is a cridit to every site he visits. If his web site is in his signature, visit it. absolutely beautiful photo's of african game, live african game!
Jim when you get that book finished, I want a signed copy. Welcome aboard! I always recommend Bill Tarrents book on Delmar Smith. You can find it on Rick Smith's web site.
Once again, welcome aboard!

Jim,
Great website by the way. I'm sure everyone, myself included, is envious of you. I was asking the same questions you were about 10 months ago. I highly recommend the Delmar Smith book by Tarrant, "Gun Dog" is OK at best, good reference and background. Long's book I think it's called "Training your Pointer" is pretty decent as well.
I must add though even with all this information this forum has provided countless answers to several obedience, bird training, and just trainer inexperience questions. Best of luck.

I agree with Don Dave Walkers. Perfection start and Finish is also good. I also like a few things from George Hickox and silent command by the Smith Bros.
Nice to have you. And great choice in breed.
