We should do a cook out that would be awesome, We could fire up the grill and let the dogs lose to play and drink beer. After we get done hunting/training of course. ~Jesse~

Bumping this to the top. Come people this will be a fun day filled with training and hanging out with friends and meeting new friends, what more can you ask for.

dog dr · Post by **dog dr** » Tue Mar 22, 2011 1:38 pm

we might get more replies/interest if there was a date and location picked out. Or have i just missed it??

Brittlver · Post by **Brittlver** » Tue Mar 22, 2011 1:44 pm

Nope nothing set up yet. Maybe we should get a list of days that would work for everyone so we can narrow a date down.

birddogger · Post by **birddogger** » Tue Mar 22, 2011 6:32 pm

I would be interested and would try to work something out once I have some specifics.

Brittlver · Post by **Brittlver** » Tue Mar 22, 2011 7:37 pm

What days are everyone thinking they would be available. As of right now I am open every Sunday but with a little notice I can be available both Sat and Sun or either one for that matter. I am thinking some time in the middle of April, prob. around the 16-17 should be nice. Cool and not to hot and possibly dry by then.

recon033 · Post by **recon033** » Tue Mar 22, 2011 9:04 pm

You guys are exactly the type of people I have been looking for, however I wont have my pup until May when he is 8 weeks. Hopefully there are more of these this summer!

Brittlver · Post by **Brittlver** » Tue Mar 22, 2011 10:23 pm

I am sure there will be plenty more to come. I looks like Joe and Ezzy a pretty centrally located where we can get the most people to come but maybe we can rotate locations which may en-tale Hotel stays or some type of lodging. Now if its summer up for popping a tent but that's me.

terrylndrs · Post by **terrylndrs** » Tue Mar 22, 2011 10:51 pm

Middle of April would work great for me

Post by **ezzy333** » Tue Mar 29, 2011 3:52 pm

Haven't heard anything more but I did line up a area to hold it if everyone agrees to come up here. I'm going to go in for surgery Monday so I'm not sure how or when I will be available to do much.

Good Luck ezzy, hope everything goes good and you get better so you can come out and play with the adults

We can always push it off a bit till you get better.

Post by **ezzy333** » Tue Mar 29, 2011 9:37 pm

Thanks so much for the good wishes. I Hope they will just go ahead and schedule it and I probably will be able to come and watch at least. Have the other hip scheduled for May 9th so there won't be much time between but I am hoping I can be somewhat mobile after a few days of each.

Ezzy

gittrdonebritts · Post by **gittrdonebritts** » Wed Apr 06, 2011 7:40 pm

UPDATE !!!!!!

Ezzy was able to get us permission to use the Rack and Wing Hunt Club for our training day free of charge ! However they will not have birds any longer for us to purchase to use for training, but I'm working on getting some quail, if anyone wants to be doing some bird work. I have several launchers i will bring along with lots of other training gear just in case someone forgets to bring/ or doesn't have and needs to borrow something. I will be free any weekend after the 18th, I'm currently battling Pneumonia and the weekend before the 18th I'm heading down south to drop off a dog and pick up the quail.

gittrdonebritts · Post by **gittrdonebritts** » Wed Apr 06, 2011 8:16 pm

birddogger · Post by **birddogger** » Sat Apr 09, 2011 3:13 am

It is about a 5 hour drive for me. I will stay overnight in a motel before driving back home.

Brittlver · Post by **Brittlver** » Sat Apr 09, 2011 11:09 am

I'm driving about 2 hrs. It's going to be a lot of fun. Maybe you can split a hotel with one of the other guys. Don't worry next time it might be in your area. We are planning on making this a regular thing and rotating where it is held. Maybe even throwing a hunting trip in there somewhere.

gittrdonebritts · Post by **gittrdonebritts** » Sat Apr 09, 2011 12:13 pm

If we can get all involved willing to set up a Place near there area for Future training days I would be willing travel as anyone coming to this one.

Ron R · Post by **Ron R** » Sat Apr 09, 2011 12:46 pm

I'll probobally go up with Charlie (birddogger) if y'all don't mind. I'm not really going for the training (mostly the drinking, grilling and socializing) but I will bring a 5 month old pup to fool with.

Post by **ezzy333** » Sat Apr 09, 2011 1:19 pm

Any of you coming from the south are welcome to stop here and we can go on together. Also some nice motels within a couple of miles from me. Let me know when you are coming and I will help however I can.

Your more than welcome to come ! I think this first time might end up being more of a social thing any how but some of the less experienced folks that are coming want to do some.
