Splatt Report post Posted May 7, 2016 Been reading some threads here and thought I'd start my own with my contributions to several of them. Life is short. Go buy a started dog of your choosing. Tis better to beg forgiveness, that ask permission. I spent 4k from my own wife knows I have an acount, but don't know what's in it, on a year and a half started lab, without asking. After 4 years, she's kinda warmed up to him. When I told her I bought a dog, she didn't want another. When our little dogs are gone, we would be empty nesters. She says the lab is our last dog. I don't think so !! He's been the best money I've ever spent, and the joy of my life. Here's a short video of he and I hunting ducks out of a lay out blind. Action starts at @ 0:38. http://smg.photobucket.com/user/splattermatic/media/GOPR0014_1449360229669_high_zpsnwu9zh3n.mp4.html Another thread was about your trophy ducks. Mine are pintails. Nothing better looking than a bull sprig. I'll have to take some new pic, as the ones of the sprig are gone. Best I can do for now to show him. Did get a surprise, once in a lifetime bird last season. I shot a Eurasian widgeon drake. Beautiful bird, now at Birdman Studio. 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
