Photo: Doug Favor. We each shot a male on a beautiful evening walk with Boone and Bugsy.


Photo: Doug Favor. This is my first time hunting over pointers. They belong to Matt Tanner.
They have style.

Stitch is a legend. Here I am with my first bird shot over a "Stitchy" point.
I have now been inducted into the club of the elite. Its a great place to be.

Dinner in the wall tent. Mearns make an incredible meal. No steak in town would match.

This is the same meadowlark the sings in my pasture in Idaho. Glad to see he was enjoying his winter in AZ.

Above: The point by Boone. Below: A double. Boone had 4 covies in an hour.

Below: Stitch was given the comfort of the truck to travel back to Idaho. He laid down for hours and only occasionally peeked over the back seat. Here he is looking real innocent.....

However these kept him busy! Nothing like a $300 chew toy.
He also chewed through two leashes, ate a zipper of a fleece jacket, chewed off the handles and ate two holes in a duffel bag.





Above: A double over Ruby, and below: she cut her tongue!




Above: Nine year old Stitch with Doug Favor. Ruby is out of Stitch.
