cyclones30: "Looks good! I've got some great retrieves on video from this weekend. My GSP never used to be much of a swimmer or retriever growing up but she's good at both now.
That picture was not far from Lake Odessa..."
My shorthair at 6 is just starting to retrieve well again. It’s my fault…this dog was phenom as a pup. At 6 months and only 25-30# he was pointing and retrieving limits almost every weekend…then I knocked down a big mature rooster that became a runner. He got spurred pretty good and he has been a little shy on Retrieving ever since. Totally my fault as I hunted him too much at a young age and exposed him to the “trauma”. Funny how they have long memories.
I made a video of our Iowa opener if anyone has time to watch

My weapon of choice was a Remington 1100 .410 GA.
I used 2 and half inch shells with a half oz. Of 7 1/2s.
When you hunt over dogs , ya don't need those big guns.

I did most of my hunting alone. Just follow the dog.
Most shots are 20 yds.
Later in the season I did switch to my 28 gauge...
I miss pheasant hunting.

Love the photos. We did well in SD a couple weeks ago.

I use a single shot 410 quite a bit. Why carry a big gun when you can’t hit them, I can miss um just as completely with a light weight gun!
