"Made the trip down to Selma, AL. with no problems, and the new truck ran well, lots of power, a little better gas mileage and soooo quiet. Greeted with 70 degrees the first day and in the low 80's since. Worked on the kennels and horse lots. Found several covies of birds. Getting the dogs ready to run at Mr. Fitch's trial."

A pic from the very successful hunting trip to North Dakota 10-24-13. Dick Wilson from MI. holding some of the birds and trainer David Grubb holding a derby age son of Blackhawk owned by Paul Tutro of MI. David Grubb, Jr. also made the trip from MI. this year.

Something NEW! We've added this blog to our website so that we can have a place to discuss, boast, brag, inform, and notify each other of all our enjoyable activities, concerns, successes and failures (who you!?!), and pertinent info regarding our mutual interest in bird dogs, our dog horses, field trials and upland bird hunting (sorry Uncle Si, but no "Duck Commanders" allowed).
