Rich will need to caption those photos. I just know those are his "boys."

Gary thanks for posting the pictures for me. I am technically challenged. These were all taken while hunting at Morrison Pines in Moultrie Georgia the last week in January. This was my 7th year there and it's fantastic, it's the one hunt I won't give up. Ike is the white GSP and Duke the dark one. They are almost exactly a year apart. Ike turned 3 the first part of September and Duke turned two the end of the month. This is the first time they have been hunting since the end of October. They are "My Boys" and I'm damn proud of them.

Fine looking GSPs Rich! Which one did you get from Mr. Brunner?

Gosh, Rich, what in the world do you do with those "Boys" from October to January? I'll bet they were chomping at the bit when you got to Georgia.
Great looking pups!

They probably are chasing grouse in the UP if I were a betting man!

Reggie Duke came from Chuck. From the end of October to the 15th of September they get spoiled. Thats why the January quail hunt is so important to me. I get out of the cold and snow and the boys get to hunt.
This is only the second time they have hunted together, the last time was also in Georgia last year. It's way to difficult for me to keep track of two of them grouse hunting.

I used to have difficulty running two fairly big running dogs at once while grouse hunting. That is until I got a system down pat. I got two bells that are loud enough to hear at a distance but with different tones. Always run the same bell on the same dog. It did not take long till I knew which was which just listening to the bell. Add to that a Garmin gps collar and it solved all the problems. Numerous times I had both dogs on point in different directions at the same time. No problem, go to the youngest first and then to the old guy. He'll be there when I get there, no matter how long it takes. I've come to like running two at once. It is marvelous to watch two dogs vacuum a section of cover.
