Holier than thou crowd! GFY. safety buckaroo. First hunting dog or not, it doesn't matter. My dog, is a dog and makes mistakes. Gun goes off while my dog is out there, a beatin happens.

Holier than thou crowd! GFY. . Right back at you dog whisperer. The guy said that nobody shot. Were you there? I don't think so. Guess we'll have to take his word for it. Like I said, it would take that dog about as long to get to where it is in that picture as it does to mount your shotgun and then see the dog out of your peripheral vision. Here's a question for you...what about those poor upland dogs that get shot over every day?

I didn't say, in that pic a shot was fired. I have also been waiting for you to bring that up. In my experiences, one is close to the dog and the birds get up and move out away from the dog. Waterfowl are coming down and low over the dog. Steel has flyers, watch your shot pattern on water and see how many are away from the main group. Just sayin, guys who hunt with me know not to shoot when Trap is out. All it takes is one over excited shot at say a low over the decoys teal and a bad thing could happen to the dog.

Guess you've never mounted your gun to follow birds but never pulled the trigger. I think on this post you need to lighten up a bit. If Roger said no shot fired, then I'll bank that because I personally know him. Roger.. 50mph in my airboat is a SUCKY and DANGEROUS ride... BTDT. Not fun. But the hunting can be great with strong winds. Those are the days you can catch redheads with a dipnet out of the air...

Had a good couple of days in Currituck Sound (Monday and Tuesday) limits both days; Ruddy Ducks, Redheads, Wigeon and Mallards. Lots of Ruddy's, good shooting on the open water blinds between Corolla Lighthouse and Knotts Island, especially near Swan Island.
