How does your comment relate to the topic of the post?
The advice is "Don't Force Fetch during the hunting season." For someone with relatively little experience, this isn't bad advice. Similarly, you might tell your 22 year old "Avoid Credit cards and consumer debt, they're a trap to your financial well being. It isn't inherently bad advice for anyone, ever.
However, for a guy that's trained a bunch of dogs to a finished level, they can take that advice with a grain of salt with the understanding that they understand why the advice is there in the first place; you don't want to confuse the dog, you don't want to lose focus, you don't want to rush the process to get him back in the blind, etc...And they can mentally weigh the pro's and cons and decide from there what's best for them. They have the ability to recognize what to do, what not to do, and the cost of what they're doing, and the opportunity costs involved in focusing on one area of a dogs development vs another.
Similar to the "avoid credit cards and consumer debt" line, if you take a CPA or professional with good financial sense, habits, and discipline, he may well choose to finance a car and put his cash payment in a mutual fund where it will greatly outearn the interest rate. Or, he might have a lot of business travel and a rewards CC that gets reimbursed every month for the expense report (as opposed to spending like a Congressman at Cabelas or the Pub) will make his household budget easier while allowing him frequent flyer miles or hotel points.
