Awhile back I was walking out of the woods in Dutchess county and I saw a bobcat in the trail ahead of me just sitting there. I pulled up the scope and looked but the little voice for some reason said don't shoot. Not 2 seconds later I see a little fur ball scoot up a tree next to the cat on the ground, and then 2 more did the same thing. The mother took off, but I'm sure she didn't go far. I snuck in closer and got to with in 30 yds of the three kits, and then walked away to leave them alone. They were probably three of the prettiest things I have ever seen in the woods. I was extremely glad I didn't shoot that mother Bobcat.

Awesome! If the lack of hair on his face is just from blasting through the brush you have an outstanding dog on your hands! Honestly, the more I read about this dog, the more I am leaning toward getting one for our next pup.

It definitely chewed up Bill and spit him out.

Hillary's long lost sister?

Any thoughts on a weed killer that can be sprayed over existing clover?

Sweet. I remember trying to find downed woodcock as a kid in VT without a dog. It was a P.I.T.A.

so its so much per inch of fish?

What does a replica mount cost $$ roughly?

Wow

Last year my twins,(1 boy, 1girl) both asked to go fishing for their 4th birthday. So I took them my dad out on Cayuga. We caught a bunch of fish but they each landed a 7+ Lb rainbow. Sometimes I regret not mounting both of those fish because of the circumstances. I did however take a bunch of pics and have one enlarged and printed on canvas in our home. Only other one would be a big blue perch I caught 4-5 years ago.

That Pup find any grouse yet??

I would stay away from a pump just because of the recoil factor, and there are many reputable companies that make quality autoloaders. A buddy of mine bought a 3.5" nova pump for goose hunting and that thing kicks the crap out of him to the point of significant bruising on his shoulder. I have a Benelli super black eagle and love it. Ice, snow, rain, it shoots every time. The new ones have a recoil reduction stock that would be nice to have as well. But, like I said above their are quite a few quality goose guns out there now: Beretta, Benelli SBE II, Browning A5, Maxus, Remington Versa max, Franchi Affinity or Intensity, Winchester SX3.

Bob, When does the cookbook come out??

Thanks for the heads up!

The spring seedling sale through Saratoga Nursery is also a GREAT resource to get a wide variety of plants on the cheap. They deliver as well.

Where will they be half price?
