I'll be out there with a couple buddies. Same crew for over 20 years. Staying in the Yuma area and hunting mostly private.

If you love labs, why get away from them? Love my pointing lab!

I have been working on "steady to wing and shot". He is coming along nicely at 15 months. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4U0sAO0bemE

All the birds were seen while walking the fields. Probably saw 70+ birds but not many in range other than hens. Walked a small corner and had 15-20 hens all get up together. We hunted all private between Akron and Yuma. The birds we did get all came up at once in a small treeline just south of Otis.

We saw a lot of birds. Scratched out three. Only three guys and one dog. Hunted my first hemp field. Kicked around 30 birds out of that.

Got to get out with our club this weekend and get tuned up for the opener. This is a couple of young dogs getting things figured out. My new dog is not quite ready for the opener but he is progressing. It feels good to get back in the game...

My sister put this slideshow together for me when Jack passed his final master test back in September. The music is Third Day's Consuming Fire, thus Jack's name. It is a chronicle of Jack's life up until that point https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xu0IYOVNumU&sns=fb

Life can change in a heartbeat. I was hunting with some new guys that I met through a friend. My dog was the only dog in the field on Sunday morning. As I whistled my dog back to me, a covey of quail exploded behind him. The guy to my right took a shot and my dog dropped. He didn't make it out...

Nice! Surprising to see some older birds around.

Got out east for a couple days. Finally found the birds and connected on a few shots. 2 youngsters and an old man Nice Colorado limit Day 3 was a little colder!

Go to the American Pointing Lab website. There is a link there for reputable breeders. I would be happy to help if you have any questions. I am fairly familiar with many of the popular breeders around the Rocky Mountain region and just east of here.

We'll be heading out Friday to Yuma. 5 guys and 2 really good dogs. We will be hunting mostly private so we can stay away from most of the crowds.

Looking good!
