Running

[Goosemaster]

I try to run if the situation calls for it. I just can't run very fast or far anymore.

Yeah I found myself running a couple weeks ago, and then I stopped and just asked myself. Myself it was if it was really worth it to run anymore, and I decided no not really. Might trip, or blow a hammy.

This is how I transitioned from a Labrador to a Griffon. I got to old and slow to keep up with my Lab. When she got on a running pheasant there wasn't enough electricity to change her speed or direction. I Googled slow methodical bird dog and here I am with a Griffon.

I don't really believe in those shock collars, I have one but I just let my dog go. I love watching my dog. If you can use one of those collars with just the vibration or a sound then it's okay in my opinion.

I told my wife that I did some jogging yesterday. She said wow, you are really taking this getting in shape stuff seriously. I didn't tell her it was downhill to the only tree in sight and that I was about too pee in my pants!!

Haha, dump mud behind a tree out in public LOL

I quit a few years ago…I walk briskly at times..,not worth hurting myself. I’d run to help a buddy or dog in need…or a damsel in distress, who wants me to remove her dress, cause she wants me to see her breasts, and it’s happened, I must confess, and I assisted with great zest…surely I jest…if it happened, I’d keep it close to the vest…that’d be best…

Yeah don't kiss and tell.

10 years ago I was still running occasionally but once I hit 60 I just kind of decided just to get burned.

Just keep the dogs close

My 12-year-old still comes out with me but she stays real close and she's basically retired, I need to get her a retrieve one of these days and just take her out without Jones.

Thought that was one of the new “do it all”
drugs that solves all of men’s problems….

I don't want to take some kind of running pill, and then have a heart attack out there and kick off.

I did a fairly vicious face plant last weekend that probably wouldn't have happened just a few years ago. I should probably try to learn from it. Falling down is no fun, especially when a shotgun is involved. Could damage it!

That is how did this. More concerned about the bird than my surroundings. I fell right on my shotgun. Bent the end of the barrel and broke the tip of my finger. Getting older means getting slower and also less graceful.

I ran last year, and tripped, my gun went flying. I went down on the ice, really busted my ass.

Some days I feel like if I bent the end of my barrel I might hit more birds.

Train your dog to stay closer

I can think of a lot worse ways to go. I just hope I got one in the vest. I'd hate to go out with a goose egg

Damn that's a really bad fall. Damn. When I fell I had this old 870, luckily I didn't have that Browning.
