Topic: How to hunt quail Posted: 07 January 2004 at 15:54 |
I am looking for someone who has a medium sized monkey for sale or trade. I intend to teach it to point quail. Monkey must be fairly smart and not afraid of gun fire. Monkey will be expected to wear a blaze orange shell vest, recognize the difference between 20 and 28 quage ammo, and point at quail with either hand. Monkey will have to learn to open gates, help me cross fences, and possibly warm up the truck. I prefer to trade and have a variety of stuff worth a monkey. I don't mind if the monkey drinks but don't want a smoker. Would consider a chimp.

Michael Jackson had a chimp, ask him if he wants to sell it. It is refuted to be able to perform unnatural acts, so teaching it to point birds instead of picking it's nose might be easy. Also, I should think that teaching it to know the difference between shotgun shells would be easy, especially the lesser gages, seeing as where he came from, he probably already knows about small round things...................Kingpin

I have such a monkey, closet smoker and a heavy drinker. He's currently on assignment hosting a TV program for CNN. When his contract expires I'll be in touch. Here is a pic.

Max,
Got a gun shy dog? I got invited to a quail/pheasant hunt in Manhattan this weekend, so I'm skippin' on out free tickets to the Chef's. Use to train mut's, as long as yer not duck huntin with them right next to ya I might be able give a suggestion or 2, but it needs lots of time to cure that one.
If you want to take the short route get the dog drunk, seen it done to a hoss afer so's you could get up on it's back. Don't know how smart that was, but the guy's doing it were poor dirt farmers for the southern tier of NY. Got some wild stories from them days.

I need one those pointers down here in AZ for quail! Now! I'll supply the beer, if it doesn't drink too much. It must wear a cowboy hat. Ten gallon prefered!

Drae,
I have first chance on the monkey. He doesn't look very reliable to me. I may be interested in sub leasing him out to you. Is there a law against shipping monkeys across state lines?

Max, if you dress that rascal up in a jeans and a plaid shirt, you won't have to ship him, and, he looks smart enough to swap out driving with you.........Kingpin

The jeans and plaid may present a problem. He wears suspenders, have to find some to match the plaid.

Kingpin- He looks too short to reach the clutch.
Rob- Alabama is probably full of suspenders fit for a monkey. That monkey you have looks like he has a record.
