Ah, now there's some memories. R/G Club, those were some of my own memories, including the human retriever. We hope our kids do better than ourselves, so my son watched me retrieving ducks while the pond was freezing up when he was younger. He decided that wasn't for him and got himself a lab, smart kid. Kids nowadays, no dedication just kidding
