The only man who never makes a mistake, is the man who never does anything!!
The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

Well it came back in 1 piece. :chuckle:
I hunted with Chessey's for many years and they were a bit hard on birds, but always brought them back.
Great looking dog 4 sure. Still love them just shifted gears and went to labs.
Nice going, way to put the meat on the table.

Good job!  I've hunted two chessies and neither could smell a bird in the grass if they were standing on it.  Seen both swim through ice covered water 100 yards or more to retrieve a snow, however.  Looks like you got yourself a good one :tup:  You will be amazed when the ducks start hitting the water!
He asked, Do you ever give a short simple answer?  I replied, "Nope."
