IMO. Pointing labs are a bastardization of the breed (same with Silver labs). Today's hunting dogs are purpose bred with 100+ years of development to refine each of their breeds hunting traits. It is not natural for a Lab to point. You want a pointing dog (including versatile dogs) for cold weather there are many to choose from. You want a flushing/retrieving breed there are many to pick from too. In the end your dog will be more of a companion than a hunter. So stay true to the breed you pick.
