condolences to you My heartfelt condolences to you reddog. What a beautiful pup and memories you have.

You're right guys. This year on the final minutes of our last day of our trip to SD my buddy -a born and raised local and i were walking back to our trucks with my dog and our unloaded guns and he looked up at the sky and said, "Look at that sky-thats why I live here.". He was right, beautiful...

I make my own from a recipe I found. 1 cup cooked rice, 1 lb ground beef, 1/2 cup regular table sugar and I added some shredded carrots (maybe one big one or two small ones) and their juice. Add a whole egg for binder, make into small (ping pong or golf ball sized) meatballs, cook until...

Favorite Recipe BirdyBritt; Made your Maple Glazed Pheasant last night it it was OUTSTANDING. You are probably right, not the most healty but man was it good. Used the thickened sauce for a gravy over the loaded mashed potatoes I made. Mighty good... and I will post it on my blog and give...

Smoked Pheasant I smoke whole breasts all the time. Use my Weber Smoker keep at 200 -220* use Pecan wood and both marinate overnight in Apple Juice (and garlic, and Hot sauce and a ginger etc) and smoke over a pan of Apple juice (my smoker has a bowl designed for that purpose). Wrap the...

Here's my Story too GSP with partially torn achilles Her's the link to my blog with the whole story.... Kind of long to copy an post so if you want to read the whole story THe link is in my signature.. Synopsis- two vets agree partially torn Achilles in left rear No surgery just...

I shared the original idea with our local PF chapter leader... His main thought has to do with habitat, not predators and that is really what everyone else is saying. Ditch to ditch farming, the pulling out of millions of acres of CRP - with a majority of that being marginal regarding...

Hello Everyone; Thought I would post this out there to see if there are any others with similar experience. My GSP, Ike, has seemed to be favoring his left back foot on and off since the end of January/beginning of February. Just while at rest - standing around or eating. He would just hold it...

"A Hunter's Road: A Journey with Gun and Dog Across the American Uplands " by Jim Fergus... Not really a dog book but a great read... http://www.amazon.com/Hunters-Road-Journey-American-Uplands/dp/0805030085 :10sign:

Thanks BritChaser I cannot tell you (although I try to tell everyone) how much pure enjoyment I get out of watching a dog work... Just absolutely love to see it.

Well this year was a very good one and I wrote a little article for a local dog magazine about our trip to SD this year... See the link below.. Lots of other good memories too... My Favorite pic of the trip is attached too. http://www.napervilledog.com/magazine/Jan2012/Jan-2012-22.html

Video Editing Just got a replacement for my IKAM recording glasses (long story don't want to talk about it :rolleyes:) but the new version has only one button operation and has a link to download editing software. Haven't used it yet but that is a change from what there was in the earlier...

I use the Windows Live Movie Maker on mine comes standard with Win7 Does more than I'll ever need for it to do... takes a little practice watching the times you where you want to make edit starts and stops but then gives you some nice transitions and options for credit title etc. Good tool.
