jimbobsmutts 44 Posted February 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 bunnys are you old? i am in no way trying to bring you down,its just me a very good mucker was having a chat at 4 this morn, an it was about older dogmen, he is under the impression that most elder guys dont know there arse from there elbow, an most are stuck in the past, an more an more of the younger generations are leavin them behind. i do agree in some respects, age aint a guarentee for wisdom, an some older folks can do same thing for40 years plus an never get any better, then there are guys who learn something everytime they are out. you come across as an older guy that knows dogs an stock in general... but are you a dying type of man? will we be left with guys that THINK they know best an refuse to listen to and learn from the younger more natural dogmen, i know of a guy who has a lad at 7 years of age i think he is, an this lad knows more of the lurcher basics than most adults 1 Link to post
