Down But Not Out!
« on: November 10, 2010, 10:00:00 AM »
Hey everyone!

I had to have emergency surgery to remove my gallbladder yesterday. Due to the restrictions on lifting heavy weight, I'm going to miss out on my typical solo style hunting for a few weeks  :cryriver:

Not getting out in the field is going to kill me, so I was thinking it would be fun to offer my time to help some of you who might like to have a camera man / dog handler on one of your hunts. I have a decent HD Video Camera and my 18 mo lab is a solid retriever, steady in the blind, and a pro at locating lost birds.

I'm not looking to shoot any birds on these trips, but rather just get out to meet some like minded hunters, spend a day just working with my lab, and capture some cool shots with the video camera.

I live in Bothell, so a west side hunt is my focus for these trips.

Cheers!
SD

WOW, if I lived close to Bothell I would totally take you up on a chance to have a free retriever in the blind! 

Sorry to hear about your surgery, but it's good to see you're still getting out!
