Hello Battue, glad to see you had better luck than me. Was romping around up in Allegheny today looking for grouse to no avail. Just a thought but Merlot seems to be a good fit for a Parker.

Soon as I get back from SD we are going to see if we can find some Grouse...
Couldn't get out till late today, but that was 3 hours of walking for two flushes and one shot.... But Merlot worked those two hard...both runners that had been out for a week or two...Good day.
Grouse....next year, Lord willing, I'm going to think hard on Maine or Wisconsin..I don't really care to kill more than a few...but I do care about getting into many..

Good boy, Merlot! That dog has a ton of heart and hunting drive. I hope South Dakota treats you boys well!!!! We may take Rocky up there next year.

Well, then let's coordinate it so we both are there at the same time...

Doc...it would be a 16 gauge, on the regular 16 gauge frame..Would like to find one on the 1-correction: or is that an O-frame. However, it still carries quick..

Let's see how it works out... Yes, he is going....he is too small to put in a kennel, so he will have a lot of kennel time during the rides. Will let him out for short hikes while there, and let him play big dog...Hope he doesn't bump into a Rooster that scares the shiiit out of him.
