Hope it goes well as she has only had limited pointing work on launched birds. I'll be posting pics if we get some.

Good luck!!!

Good luck. Where are you taking her?

Good morning gents, last minute, got in at top flight. I felt it was a more controlled environment. We're going to the ranch to hunt quail this weekend.

Will do.

So this morning was great. Beautiful day, cool weather couldn't ask for more. Maddie pointed 5/6 pheasant and 2 quail that weren't on the list. She did have issues holding her point, but I really think I attribute it to them not flushing until she went after them. She held for about 5-10 seconds then that damn prey drive kicked in. I wonder if it is because they were placed in these really thick, and I mean thick bushes. Pics en route!
