How old is he? My dad is looking for a dog right now...he just asked me to keep an eye out for pups but has talked a lot in the past about getting a started dog.
Will he stay in a fenced yard? Does he get along with other dogs? My dad has an "accident" female half lab/half wirehair that must be about 6 or so now. Blew out her knee somehow chasing birds and can't hunt (at least, not for very long), but it ended up having more lab than pointer, anyway, and he's a pointer type of guy. His best dog was a pointer named Breeze that he lost a few years ago (old age.)
