Souix(setter) 1901,1902 National Champion
Very interesting to see how little difference in appearance of field setters over the last 86 years.
( Feagan's Mohawk Pal ( setter) 1926,28,30... last twice in a row winning setter

Has too much time on their hands
Look at Bo's Chest....he has no "Tuck" (that's probably because he's 8) but look at the size of his chest cavity...that boy can move some air.....and that is of major importance in this type of competition.......for all the confirmation freaks (like me).....you want a Dog to have run and stamina/endurance?....it needs to move air in and out of those Lungs....the more the better......the chest needs to reach at the elbows at the least(see pic Sharon posted)......Beautiful specimen he is.

I'm in the mood after just figuring out my March budget and wondering if I can afford coffee after vet expenses this month.
Perhaps you have had too much coffee....I was merely pointing out one of his features to those that may not know why a Dog like him "may" have an edge......had nothing to do with the comparison of the 2 pics you posted.....sorry if you're reading something else into my post.....I will crawl back into the Timmies I just crawled out of
