Steve, the pointer is a fine breed.

I see part of your gun staging is Foster's "New England Grouse Shooting."

Foster spent a lot of time at the Davies' home on Dascomb Road in Andover where "Shooting 'Round the Clock" and finally Skeet was developed.

Marjorie Davies, along with her husband Charles, bred, raised and trained pointers at their Glen Rock Kennels. So, you see, pointers are quite acceptable as New England Grouse Dogs but it must be noted that English Setters are far prettier.

Kurt, a bit on Grouse and Woodcock, but mostly on released Pheasants and an occasional Duck Hunt on fair days.
