ABOUT OUR COVER

"The Woodcock Hunters" by Ross B. Young

"The Woodcock Hunters" by Ross B. Young portrays my good friend Ben Pendleton with one of my Brittanies hunting in "The Honey Hole," a favorite parlor of mine (the location of which is to remain a secret). There is something magical about woodcock and every October they cast their spell calling me back to those wonderful hidden valleys and creek bottoms. For information about this and other works by Ross B. Young, contact Pendleton's American Fine Art at 417-859-5319 or Fax 417-859-7030.
