It happened during a late-November pheasant hunting trip to Winner, SD with some other Denver Pheasants Forever folks. One of the guys who hunts with a small wirehair pointer had never seen my 4 yr old pointing lab Parker before. When Parker jumped out of the truck, my friend exclaimed "that's...

An older friend of mine is an avid duck hunter (from a blind in a duck club). He is looking for a started or finished lab for his duck blind and home-no preference for color or sex. He lives in Denver, CO. Any ideas out there? Tom

Cody was half of my PairOfLabs handle when I signed up for this forum some years ago and I posted pics of him at times. We had to put my 14.5 yr old buddy down in August and went through some tough times as we all do. My wife and I pretty quickly decided to start the searching process for...

Just a reminder that the MetroDenver Chapter of Pheasants Forever will be holding our annual fundraiser banquet on Saturday, March 29, 2014 at the Arapahoe County Fairgrounds-the same venue as last year but hopefully without a blizzard. Like last year we will have several activities for the...

We had first pick of the four males in this 10 pup litter from KB Kennels in Pierce,CO who some of you know as Keskam on this forum. We made the pick on Wed. and will be bringing him home on the 28th as a slightly late Christmas present for Parker who has been lonely since Cody passed in...

Parker doesn't know it yet but he's getting a present for Christmas-a new little buddy-so I can regain my PairOfLabs handle. Merry Christmas everyone. Tom

Merry Christmas to all the forum members from the PairOfLabs home-Tom, Karen, and furkids Cody and Parker. Tom

Here's an advance announcement to mark your calendars for Saturday, March 9, 2013 for the Metro Denver Pheasants Forever banquet. The 2013 banquet promises to be bigger and better with more fun for the whole family. We're moving from the southmetro Mariott to the Arapahoe County Fairgrounds...

I met up with Myron (Myrone) and John (NitroHunter) Friday morning about 4:30 AM in Brighton for a trip out to the Yuma area. Myron had put up a post earlier this year about Friday hunting. The 3 of us, along with John's 1.5 yr old pointing lab Nitro and my 1.7 yr old pointing lab Parker...

Our MetroDenver PF chapter is sponsoring a sporting clays shoot at Kiowa Creek Sporting Club at 9:00 AM on Saturday, October 13. The cost will be $45 for 100 targets and includes lunch. It would be great if some of you folks could join us. You don't have to be a PF member--though even better...

A friend and I took our dogs on a "blast and cast" near Meeker last week for grouse and trout. My lab Parker and I got our first ever grouse. My final score was one grouse, no trout, lots of miles walked and belly-boat finning. It was a great trip. Tom

Just a reminder that the MetroDenver PF Chapter Banquet will be March 10 starting at 5:30 PM. The location will be the same as last year-Marriott Denver South at 10345 Park Meadows Drive in Littleton. Banquet cost is $40. Renewal of PF membership is $35 or you can renew and get a "bottomless"...

Near Otis, CO last Wednesday I scored my first rooster with my new Cynergy on the first flush of the day. I will admit to a second anchoring shot. The gun is a joy to carry at 6lbs 7oz with 26" barrels. I dropped the adj. comb down one notch to the bottom for better sight alignment and...

Have any of you had experience with your dogs getting motion sickness? My 11 mo. lab pup Parker has issues. This could be on hunting trips or trips across town to the dog off-leash park. It doesn't seem to matter if has eaten recently or not. I've given him a single Dramamine with a little...

The snow has been finally hitting the mountains but it's been nice in the city. A bicycle ride on Friday, sporting clays on Saturday, skiing at Winter Park on Sunday, pheasant hunting this coming Wed & Thurs. I'm liking this retirement gig. Flashback pic from May 2011-Cody is 12.5 Parker is 15...

If you're a forum member, if at all possible, you should be a Pheasants Forever member. The chapters across the country do a lot to help our pheasant hunting heritage. I have been a member for a couple of decades but until this past year I just sent in my money and maybe attended an annual...

Merry Christmas from P.O.L. That's 10 mo Parker on the left and 13 yr Cody on the right. This is our 22nd annual labs Xmas card thanks to my graphic artist wife Karen and her photoshop skill. I hope that all of you and your families have a great holiday season and can get out in the field...

I'm looking for help from this fine group since I lost my notes. I was keeping track whenever someone mentioned a light over/under but misplaced them. I shoot sporting clays, trap and skeet with a couple of 12 GA Browning Citoris that are pretty heavy to drag around a pheasant field. For that...

While following my 9 mo. old lab pup through the fields on Friday and Saturday I got to thinking about two questions (besides when are we going to see more birds) 1. What do you consider the ideal quartering range from you in yards and why? I'm thinking that 10-15 yards seems ideal if I can...

While waiting for me to slip/slide my way from Yuma up to Holyoke on Saturday morning, Jason was talking to a Holyoke area farmer. He advised us to hunt north of Hwy 6 as there had been a nasty hail storm in the early summer that hammered the young birds south of the highway. Do any of you...
