NEW MEMBER FROM TX!

Hello everyone I am a new member from Texas. My name is Justin, I am a 19 yr old college football player and avid hunter. Grew up on a ranch in Central Texas, and I guess I am your average country boy from the Lone Star State. Shot my first buck when I was 8, grew up playing football, I have steer wrestled, roped, and even rode a bull in a few rodeos, and fell in love with duck hunting at a very young age. I love all typed of hunting but waterfowl is easily my favorite. I am looking to buy a lab around May, I am moving into a house with a huge backyard and have acess to many tanks and lakes around my area to train the dog. If anyone knows of any good breeders around the Texas/Oklahoma area it would be very helpful!

Thanks and glad to be a part of this forum!!!

Welcome to GDF!

I'm a pointing dog guy and don't know beans about Labs in Texas. Hopefully one of my waterfowling brethren will help out.

Best regards, Greg J.
