The roosters were skittish and hard-earned for this group of flushers and retrievers on a December 2015 South Dakota pheasant hunt. From left, “Bodie,” Rich Towner’s Labrador retriever; “Roy” and “Lexi,” Gary Larson’s English springer spaniels; and “Woody,” Todd Winsor’s Labrador retriever. Towner is from White Bear Lake, Minnesota, Larson is from Dayton, Minnesota and Winsor hails from Isanti, Minnesota.
