Re: Field Trial Derby Question

Big R is correct. As long as the scheduled start date of the Derby event begins the the day before the dog turn 2, the dog is eligible for the event.

Re: Tangelo Tossers now maunfactured locally

Thanks for the kind words. Ever since I first saw this ingenious winger, I have marveled at its simple design, ruggedness, and the unique kick release mechanism. I am excited that Terry Woods and family decided to give me the opportunity to carry on with the Tangel Tosser and the other Tangelo ...

No, it was the real Trey Edwards. I have a picture of him in the trash dumpster, while he was looking for some food.

As soon as I saw I was getting into trouble I would have simplified the blind with this relatively young dog. Simplify in this case means i would have started walking to cut the distance and improved the casting of the dog. If the folks you hunt with don't understand it then you will have to explain ...

Baylee has responded well to all the procedures performed and the best news is ...

I am usually reluctant to offer advice without seeing the performance of the dog but it appears that you have done a good job in describing the issues. One caveat: My response is predicated on the fact that your dog has successfully undergone decheating drills as part of its training program ...

Just my 2 cents on the open land series. I was on the line all day Friday and gunned the first two hours on Saturday. After the test dog ran on Friday the 4th bird was added that changed the makeup of the test completely. It was not that difficult to determine if a dog knew where a mark was. It was ...

Depends on the club. Lot's of times if it is a Finished slot, the club will have a waiting list and you might be able to work it out. Call the HT Secretary as soon as possible and tell them the situation. But, understand that person has a lot going on and they might not be able to respond quickly ...

I am sorry that the SFHRC thread has digressed. But.....First, EAHRC is not having a dinner, it is a social. They stated that very clearly in the confirmation that was sent. Second, if all goes well the club plans on being done around 4:00pm; well before an appropriate diinner time. Third, the club ...
