Thanks Dan, sure does, I really appreciate the response. I was hoping it didn't appear I was trying to stir up any hard feelings. Looks like there are none to stir up. :o) Looks like some of these big game hunters should start nominating some of these outstanding dogs. Where is next year's hunt going to be? Thanks again! Fred
