Trap and I are chompin at the bit for this hot summer to end, and the 4 1/2 month long waterfowl season, to begin. Been messing with my portable blind and raffia grass. Thinking it just may work! Some more tweaking is need tho. Bought a few more lucky duck spinners and remotes, made new stands for them, converter stakes, from g&h, to use floaters in fields, and two new calls from j a kolter in Iowa.

Nothing cuter than a lab pup, we're well into our 3rd lab. Love 'em to death, they are the best. Enjoy.

Trap earned his UKC Hunting Retrieve title this weekend. He went 4 for 4. My buddy made me proud. When Roadrunner HRC club officials heard Trap earned his title, we got the water bath!!

I need to get out for doves again some year. I prefer bear and elk hunting in Sept, but doves are a great time. Won't be long for you guys now.

Its official! Trap's, UKC Hunting Retriever Seasoned level certificate came today. Now to finish his AKC senior title and move on to finished and master. Been lots of fun so far. Made dumb handler mistakes along the way, and put in alot of work. Im really proud of my boy! Its taking time to work our way up, mainly due to where we live and me not wanting to travel to chase titles.

Awesome! I'm coming up to shoot with you this year!

C'mon up buddy. We can have some fun!!
Trap and I have turned out to be a great team.
He sure has become the bright spot in my life! We're inseparable.
Tomorrow we're going back to the same spot!
Got a teal recipe I wanna try.

For the life of me, I just cannot get him to give me a manly pose for pictures. Shot 1, and got run off by ants today. There was a gazillion of them, crawling all over Trap and I today.

This is how it works with Trap in the blind with me. Brushing in our blinds. Finished product. We each got our limit of 7 this evening.
