Don't want to hijack the post but I have a question to go along with this. Does a dog have to be steady to wing and shot when hunt testing? Depends on the level. In junior they just have to point anything after doesn't matter, senior they can go with the shot of the gun, master they have to be broke.

One thing to think about is that all experienced field trial horses will make good trail horses, but not all experienced trail horses will make a good field trial horse. If that makes since.

Curious how good your turn out was, could you list numbers of starters in each stake.?

Brushbustin Sporting Dogs

All training is done in steps. It's like a puzzle. When its all put together you see the picture!! Everything builds towards the finished project. Its tough to explain it all on a computer screen.

You have to drive a very different pattern after every brace so dogs can't just follow the 4 wheeler. It was all explained to me last time I went to a trial and I read the rule book on it. The regional championships had the top bird planter in the state and there was a 12 year old GSP that they sai...

4 x 8 is gods plenty! Pens or runs aren't for exercise they are for holding a dog Io a secure place. For what you will be using it for that is plenty of room Kirby. All mind are 6 x 12 and I feel that's plenty of room for 2 dogs.

Birddogz wrote:How many dogs OTHER than long tails win AA events? Ames? Etc.? Then go see what hunters use in the field and tell me there is no bias.

What are you talking about???????????

Brushbustin Sporting Dogs

AA Events....

Brittanys, Shorthairs, Setters......

Again you have NO idea what the heck you are talking about!!! I'll edit my post after somebody points it out that I'm full of ...it.... HA HA HA!!

I put one on a stake out when I was traininng a young horse to be on a stake out. It came loose on its own when I wasnt around! Havent used one since.

Why do you think they have all-Britt competitions? Tell me O great, one just explain it to us why we still to this day hold Brittany only trials?????????????? 2 reasons. To judge the Britt to its own standard, and because they wouldn't be given a fair shake by long-tail FT judges. I know guys who t...

Ya and I can't believe that athletes use steroids!!! If you don't think cheating goes on in EVERY sport your crazy!! Let people play and they will find a way to cheat!!!

Ruth, I can understand the rough concrete on the outside but inside is a terrible idea! I would do a power trowel finish inside and a freson finish outside. You wouldnt want your garage floor rough would you. As s rule of thumb you never want tough concrete in doors it'd to tough to clean. Ruth we d...

T I have talked to him for hours and hours. In person, and on the phone. I really think you should call him and ask what he thinks of HB FTs. :D You would be surprised. :wink: First thing I like to do with a dog is put them into lots and lots of birds, and build that prey drive. Let them be a pup. ...

I could look it up, but I'm lazy. Does the AKC require you to have finished, competed with, or even owned a pointing breed to be a judge? You have to have four broke dog placements, along with seminar training and apprintice judging and signed off by qualified judges. It's five placements but it is...

Finally a thread without a bunch of whining!!!! I like it!!!!!

Brushbustin Sporting Dogs

My recommendation is not to use one.....

Brushbustin Sporting Dogs

When I started doing all this I didn't care who did what and other things I couldn't control. 4 years into it and I still don't care what Tom, "bleep", or Harry is doing. I go and do what I'm going to do and am happy at the end of every trial regardless of how things go! Point is don't worry about a...

Age isn't as important as how well they can fly. IF they have been able to stretch out there wings view should fly pretty good by 6-8 weeks.

Brushbustin Sporting Dogs

Nobody likes to loose pups but its been my experience that mother nature knows more than us and sometimes they don't make it simply because they aren't meant to. I have found the more time and effort you put into trying to save the pup just makes it harder when it doesn't make it. I for stay up all ...

Uneven face masks have nothing to do with crossbreeding. Markings are what they are. Have brittanys been bred to pointets, of course they had and to be quite honest they probably still are a few doing it to this present day. People want to win, some at all cost! It is what it is... If some one want...

You should take your Brittany over to ardmore this weekend!! They just started the US open and the victore nationale will follow.

Brushbustin Sporting Dogs

Neil what is sad is that a few years ago they voted down moving our Brittany nationals to Eureka, that is atleast actual ALL AGE grounds and probbaly som eof the best grounds in the country. Between Bectels place and Olivers they had set up to run continous 9 hours of course!!! You could run dogs al...

Seriously people... Ok we are talking about athletes here not weekend warriors. There isn't a one of us on this bored that can run a 4.0 40 yard dash if we could we would be doing something better than typing on this "bleep" board. Has Tom Brady thrown for 5 touchdowns in a game?? Yes. Does he do it...

Brushbustin Sporting Dogs

Jayhawk maybe you have missed it but we have been round and round and round and round and round with Birddogz and everyone is sick of his BS!! So noone is going to take him seriously. This study that he is quoting is an old one that most have either read or seen its not new news and he isn't God for...

Brushbustin Sporting Dogs

I'm not sure that I am capable of pulling off All Age, seeing your dog every twenty minutes is not my idea of a partnership.

Its the ultimate partnership!!!! You have to have a very good partnership with your all-age dogs or else they would just go of and leave you!!!!

Brushbustin Sporting Dogs

I know what the big deal is everyone knows field trial dogs are the best!!

Brushbustin Sporting Dogs

By all accounts it looks and is very tacky the way it is now. There is to much stuff and I have yet to look at any of it as it looks like a big cluster. It was better before by and large!!!

I agree I think in this case less is more. Its very confusing the way it is now....

Now you see what i'm talking about... Its alot to take in!!!

Brushbustin Sporting Dogs

Just to much going on... Several different sections new and old sections. I just don't like it!

Anyone else think it seems like to much??

They are littermates.

Tequilas Joker sired many a champions by crossed with Smarteyes Microbeans. They did the breeding 3 times and more than once did Jordan, Bandit, Jack, and Thunder go winner and runner up in big time championships. It's not unheard on.

Gentlemen, This thread has about run its course, the nasty snide personal remarks have more than started.

Rodney I've always found that a nickel will give you a perfect brittany tail about everytime!!! Just a little trick... compare it to what you did.

Brushbustin Sporting Dogs

Everyone's situation is a little different, church, kids activities, travel, money and just plain not wanting to be embarrassed in front of a bunch of people by an untested dog. In my own case, it's not knowing how to get involved. The entrants and judges are all busy as heck so who can a newbie si...

People do not feed Birddogz rants. This has been a pretty good thread up until he started posting on it. Lets not turn this south and get this thing locked. Keep on base.

If you need to address Mr. Bright, Birddogz, do like I did and PM him.

Brushbustin Sporting Dogs

You know the dumb thing in all this is that I'm sure all of us "trialers" were hunters long before we ever went to a trial. Field trialing is a sport there are winners and losers in any sport. There are not winners and losers in everyday life. All this thread is turning into is a meat dog versus "tr...

Although I wouldnt recomend anyone going to Columbia that might be a good thing for ya Kirby. Just watch out for all the crazy Tiger fans!!!!

Meller, who is putting that on??

Brushbustin Sporting Dogs

The way he described it if I remember correctly, the flags was suppose to separate him and another dog, but after reading a bunch of responses I am thinking he was just full of it. As is most the stuff you hear about trialing. The thing is is that we need to educate about field trialing and this ha...

Brushbustin Sporting Dogs

Chris, I feel like regardless of how much you explain it to people there are just to many lies and untruths about trialing. Reading through here I read lots of untruths. I've never been to s trial with imaginiary lines. Wems said something about dogs ranging 500 yards. Rarely will you see dogs out 5...

Ruth, The thing you are not seeing in all this is that people view things differently. I raise these pups and feel they are part of me. I sold all 10 out of the last litter to very nice and kind people. Most keep in great touch the first year them nothing sense. I emailed several of them after the h...
