Unless I counted wrong he had 8 finds and 1 UP. The boy may do like SOB and win it in consecutive years. For those following the Shooting Dog Invitational Shawn's dog Chelsie's Thunderbolt is top dog and one of only 4 called back for the 1 1/2 hour finals tomorrow. Some pretty good kind of bird dogs for sure. Sorry I did miss one. 9 finds in his 3 hours.

I saw that on the Ames site last night. That is the most finds that I remember at the National in the few years I have kept up with it.

Saw it as well. I am fortunate enough to own a female pup by Sunny Hill Jo. She is shaping up to be a very nice dog.
Gun's don't kill people. The Government does.
I killed eight gophers last year and a purebred Tennessee walking horse that was looking at me funny.

Early results seem to point to Jo being a consistent producer. We already know he's one hell of a bird dog.

Are they running on pen raised birds?

I've been lucky enough to own two pointers by hall of fame studs

Yahoo...Chelsea's Thunderbolt wins the Invitational, big congrats to Bolt, Shawn and Virgil his scout. Huge win for real nice dog.
And Oakspring Big Time Warrior had a 9 find 3 hours this afternoon at Ames. Don't know about his race but he ran clean (no UPs) so he and Jo passing out some thrills. Must be top two at this point.

If I counted right just 2 days running left. Should finish up Sat.
Look like someone has to beat Lester's Sunny Hill JO and Oakspring Big time Warrior to win this. Both with 9 finds but Jo had 1 un-productive and no mention of their races. But a 5 or 6 find performance with an outstanding 3 hours on the ground could surprise.

Tomorrow is the last two braces to run. I'm thing Oakspring Big Time Warrior wins it (as he ran clean) but Robin Gates runs Shadows Full Throttle in the afternoon brace and could surprise. Jo with that 1 UP could have had a good enough race, so should be a cliff hanger.

I have a feeling old Jo will be in the back of the horse trailer with every miss in the country in the coming year.
