Duck and waterfowl hands down Labs, now if you were to go to South Dakota (Pheasant Capital of the World) and look what 70% of guys are hunting with tell we what you see? Then argue why 70% of pheasant hunters have it wrong. Enough said as far as pheasant, ducks and geese go. Never had experience with quail, chukar, or sharpies, or badger, as far as barn swallows go, my springer has everyone of you beat.

K2 signed a $8.7 million contract to supply the military with service dogs, what do they use? Field trial lined Labradors, it baffles my find why when given an unlimited amount of money that they would choose such an inferior dog...........

Never even been to ND, for that matter.
Closest I got was playing football against the University of Minnesota in 1988 in the Dome.
