Title: I Give Up!!!!!! Post by: jhy on November 30, 2010, 10:58:06 pm Opening day of duck season my Fiance, one of my buddy's, and I went down the crawfish ponds to see if we couldnt get some birds that afternoon. I have learned to always bring my rifle when I go duck hunting because you always see the big deer while duck hunting for some reason.(Murphys Law)
We got out and started to walk around the pond and of course there wasnt any ducks, but there was a lot of hog damage that I havent seen before. I didnt expect any hogs to be on the property because the hogs usually will bed up in the CRP about a thousand yards behind the crawfish ponds. Well before I knew hit Yoli opened up about a 100 yds in front of us and as always when I go hunting for something other than hogs I get hogs. She had two nice sows bayed with some pigs down in a ditch. I walked up within 30 yds or so and when the big sow charged her I dropped the other one with the rifle. Then the bigger sow quit her charge and started back to the ditch and my gun got jammed so my buddy shot her with the 12 gauge, but didnt phase her a bit and she hight tailed it and Yoli was in pursuit. Then the pigs began to scatter and he we knocked down a couple more with the gauge and of course Yoli being a gun dog she came back the shot and began chasing the pigs down and bringing them back to Tammy, who had the knife and was finishing them off with everyone she brought back.(Which was just the begining, because she ended up killing about 6 pigs, gutting, cleaning, and cooking them) ((AWESOME WOMAN))!!!!! So, we ended up seeing two grey ducks and three teal, but ended up with a nice lanyard of pork. I think I will just stick to hog hunting!

Title: Re: I Give Up!!!!!! Post by: jhy on December 01, 2010, 01:50:53 pm So now we know why you are engaged, congrats! Good story and picture! Matt, You are right on!!! That was the nail in the coffin so to speak. Proposed in CO. while skiing over Thanksgiving break. Tammy skins and cleans fish better than anyone I have ever seen, in fact when she finished the first one my Buddy, CJ, said, "Im Embarassed!!", and walked off. Her Grandfather taught her well. I have to tell her to slow down on the way to the bay because my fatself cant keep up. Appreciate the comments fellas. Joey Title: Re: I Give Up!!!!!!

She is very photogenic and always poses well for the camera. She is supposed to be my bird dog, but she is really geared more towards furred game. Like I said before, she is my worst hog dog, but none of my hog dogs can point, retrieve, and tree. :) Joey Young Title: Re: I Give Up!!!!!!

Title: Re: I Give Up!!!!!! Post by: jhy on December 08, 2010, 02:16:37 pm Thanks Craig,
Where are you located in Oklahoma? I am working in Winfield, KS. And was wondering if you were close by? Joey Title: Re: I Give Up!!!!!! Post by: craig on December 08, 2010, 02:33:47 pm Joey
you are about 3 hrs away, im east of Tulsa in Wagoner.. if you get a long weekend give me a call Title: Re: I Give Up!!!!!! Post by: jhy on December 08, 2010, 11:53:36 pm I got them every weekend, but I have to go outside in this wind blown cold country to get reception. Looks like we got bad weather rollin in this weekend so maybe I will come visit next sat or so. Need to look at some trailers anyway.
Joey Title: Re: I Give Up!!!!!! Post by: craig on December 09, 2010, 05:57:45 pm your welcome anytime ,, how long you gona be up here,, we can make a hunt or 2 after deer season.
Title: Re: I Give Up!!!!!! Post by: jhy on December 09, 2010, 10:28:48 pm Hopefully a while, at least until spring I would think. I got my Drathaar with me and the bad weather has been pushed off until next weekend. If I dont go Quail hunting this weekend I may shoot down there one morning and look at some trailers and your dogs. You dont have a bay pen do you or know of any bay comps that go on within a few hours of me?
