    There would be very few, if any, nz setters that don't have woody in them at lest once.
    It does need more diversity used.

    Then what will you breed to, the gus line will be lost(unless Earl has semin). The woody lines will still be available long after gus has gone, have u looked at the big picture Brian

    May I ask, what to me is an obvious question?
    Given the known limited bloodlines here (according to this thread) why didn't you get her inseminated over there before she was shipped over?
    Surely that would be the easiest way to increase bloodlines here and be cost efficient?

    that seems very logical Barefoot. You should have consulted to El B
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    And thats a relative statement too. The most talented setter of recent times, not ever seen. I' ve heard enough people say he was just another Sharnberry Shooter, except 30 years on Leon knew how to handle him. I honestly think you have a wealth of good blood here, as Uplander says don't bottleneck yourself too early
