Redtail hawks... (reply)

Ahhh....well there's no confusing a redtail with a ferruginous. They are twice as big as the redtail.

Huh...I never brought a hawk out of Alaska. I released that one the day we moved out of Alaska. I did trap another one in New Mexico. You probably are thinking of that one. That was a good bird.

Are you still flying your hawk? (reply)

Sorry to hear that. I'm pretty sure the one I'm talking about was a Redtail Hawk that brought with you from Alaska.

Good question. My last hawk (a very large female ferruginous...think medium sized eagle) died of West Nile. It wasn't fun. I've since moved to TX and haven't replaced her but I'm not done with falconry. Not by a long shot. Using a wild animal to hunt with? Totally awesome.

Just the other day, I was wondering what had become of you?

The same Bryan I sold a bunch of Ruger parts to along with a brass bisley grip frame when still in Alaska? If so I have wondered where you wandered off to and believe it or not, that same brass bisley grip frame found it's way back here to Oregon :)

That was a great trip. I had lost the photos long ago. Send them sometime Rob. Great memories and we sure didn't need to tip any animals over for that to happen.

Bryan Pettet — Mon, 25 Jan 2016 19:10:41 +0000

that's a possibility. I never was able to make them in the past. Can you point me towards the details?

Welcome home Bryan. Hope life has been treating you well.

There will be a CSA shoot in Clarksville, Arkansas the 1st of April (No, it's not a joke). Hopefully, you aren't too far down in Texas to make it over for a weekend.

Yes, you and i looked for him when he was here in AK (reply)

Bryan Pettet — Mon, 25 Jan 2016 17:19:42 +0000

Now that's not entirely correct...maybe 90% true. Did anyone ever come out to the villages I was working in to say hi? Nope...y'all were too busy eating reindeer sausage.

At least Rob pretended to be nice (he really liked my family better than me). There was the time he took me out in his boat to hunt deer one weekend. We saw none. It was cold and wet. He slept inside the cabin. I slept outside. Never mind...that's a lousy story.
