There were 15 of us spread out in a 240acre field.

That sounds like a great day Daryl. And the gray muzzled dogs. Love it.

Yep, those labs are getting long in the tooth. How old are they Daryl?

They still look like pups to me! But I'm on the gray-faced side myself, so I may be biased.

I'm guessing they are between 11-12 years. You'd never know it by their energy in the field. Both are from rescues and simply have been great companions at home and in the field. Very rewarding experience working with them.
I should mention that the one on the left, a female, is named Fox. The other is named Parker and he is all male and one of the best upland dogs I have ever had the pleasure to hunt behind. He will hunt hard all 5 days in S. Dakota without missing a beat. Fox on the other hand is a very good retriever. Nothing gets away from her but she is not as tough as Parker.

Daryl, if you want to limit in the first 15 min - 30, shoot the Fox first! Then start on the Eurasions with the Parker... all my small Foxes are 28". I have A's with 32, another 30, and another 26, all 12. I think they all shoot the same, they're Foxes! Great dove shoot!
