Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Mandrell Sisters

They were all smoke shows but which was your favorite? Louise was mine.

Mine 2.... Delicious !

Smoke shows for my parents but if forced to chose (knowing nothing about them) - bottom right.

Irlene.

She played the ditzy one on the show but she is actually the brains of the family. Irlene managed the business and financial affairs of her sisters and did very well by them.

Louise

That brings back some memories! Talented, beautiful ladies!

All or a couple of them might be at a major shooing event, but one of them, not Barbara became a regular. Seems like it was shotgun related.

True story.................

25 years or so ago, I was in a fishing lodge on Lake Fork.
I was cooking up a nice pot of jambalaya for my guest when another group pulled into the lodge to make a duck hunt the next morning. Those fellas started unloading some REALLY nice shotguns, Purdy's and the like.
So, in my most over confident way back then, and with a few bourbons in me, I started a conversation about the guns and how I was friends with a older guy that just opened one of Louisiana's first sporting clays range.

Told the guy I was talking to that I would be visiting my buddies place because Louise Mandrell was going to be there shooting because she was one "fine ass woman" ................to which the guy looked up from his drink and said "I know, she's my wife". Thanks goodness I can cook a decent jambalaya. It saved the day; for me at least.

So yes Louise was my favorite.

Louise

Who are they???

I was 11-13 when it ran. Even then I knew they were "purty", as my dear mom used to say.

They still have some game.

Talented Ladies.

Louise.

Very talented musicians and not hard on the eyes either.

Louise and Irene.
Though I was around 10 when they had their TV show.
I was thinking it was Louise that got pretty big into shotgunning sports for a while.
