Tucker is lab #8. now 4, and without his housemate Brady as of a few months ago. We have been doing all of our labs as a two person job. I hold them while they sit between my legs, usually on a chaise lounge on the back porch in decent weather. My wife runs the Dremel with a 1/2" diameter...

A 12G "shot show special" Grand Prix Sporter with32" barrels and a 20G 525 Sporter with 30" barrels and a R.A.D. II recoil reducer/adjustable butt pad.

Nice post Bob.

Browning just announced a 10% rebate for the month of April. That got me off the fence and I ordered two Citori Special Sporting Clay's Edition shotguns from Guns Unlimited in Omaha. A 12g and 20g, both with 32" barrels, adjustable comb, and Gracoil recoil reducer/adjustable butt pad. They...

My story is 8 male yellow labs starting in June of 1989, all neutered. Unfortunately, since February my PairofLabs screen name is not correct as I am down to one, aged 4.

I call it Chukar for Tucker. Today is his 4 yr birthday.

This for me. I shoot at 1000's of SC, Trap, Skeet, and 5 stand targets a year, but less than 50 pheasants.

I have not been out in CO yet. First trip won't be for a couple of weeks.

I make that a practice when it's safe for hunters and dogs. I did it several times on my recent 3-day hunt near Winner, SD. My 3-yr old lab Tucker had a great time, retrieving a whole bunch of birds. Our group of 9 had 2 labs and the outfitter/guide's 2 GSPs. I always maintain that the cost of...

I never thought of that. Good idea. I've got so many pairs of gloves, always looking for the perfect ones.

Your Goldens pose well for the camera.

Last year in Winner we had a much tougher time finding a breakfast restaurant that was open.

Your last statement sounds like my few trips to eastern Colorado the last few years. I justify the cost of a trip to SD as "it's for the dogs".

Back to ground pounding. Never for me--I just send one of my labs. It's a hoot watching them on long chases of running cripples. If it's an open field the dog always wins.

I hunt with a group (from Denver and other parts of the country) that's been going to Winner for 10 or more years. I've noticed the same thing over the last few years. We always stayed at The Warrior Inn (changed name to Knights Inn) and it's now closed. At least those of us with dogs stayed...
