Training Grounds

Are there any pay to play training grounds available in the North Texas area? I understand some clubs own grounds and other's have training days but most of my time is during the week. Weekends typically end up dedicated to my wife and kids.

1. Ackerman’s in Boliver, TX. The address to put in your GPS is 12414 FM 2450 Sanger, TX 76266 (33.387801,-97.254888). From I35 exit 478 to FM455. Go West on FM455 for 4 miles to 4 way stop sign in Boliver Community. Turn right on to FM 2455 for 2.3 miles. Ackerman’s is on the left. The cost is $10 per handler, no cost to watch. Bring your dog, water, chair and any snacks you may want. We always do a good job at this but just a reminder to clean up any trash that you may drop or blow out of your vehicle.

Appreciate it. Not to far from me and I had no idea it was there.

Any others?

I am in Longview and surrounding area. I I welcome anyone to come out and day train. Only cost is helping out and throwing birds.

I appreciate the generous offer. I am a long ways from there but maybe sometime i will make a trip out there.

ackermans place is super nice but depends o what day you are there you might have several others or pros out there training also. lots of whistles going off

When my nephew lived in Lewisville, we would take his two Labs out to one of many local city park ponds to train,
He said many of his duck hunting friends would do the same.

I was also in a hunt of a training ground for my furry friends, but no luck in finding one. I believe you have to be a member of a certain club to earn privilege in using there training grounds.

anyone can use the ackermans, you just pay a small daily fee.

Thanks man for the tip!

I used to go to the grasslands In Decatur

i think we should just be able to pay $10 and train on Robby's place

L, I'm in Bridgeport and have a pond/tank if thats all you need.

It's great working at the lake.

Definitely appreciate the offer. You cant ever have too many places to train. This post was initiated in search of some semi technical water where i could setup multiple water entries and do some decheat work.

You can do De-cheat on any cattle pond. Multiple reentries are harder to find.

Agree. Just the ones on my place don't lend itself very inviting for it because the way they are built. Lose site of the dog, dam in the way, cover ect...

If you can use a boat dock on a lake or pond. You can toss bumpers beyond it and often dogs, especially as they tire, will run down the dock if allowed. Also I toss across the walk way or ramp and the dog will want to run the shore and enter on the other side of the walk way to enter or cut to shore to return there and we work it that way as well.

We offer training fields and we have some birds left.
