Brittany Field Trials --
What's the fundamental rules differences between All Age and Gun Dog? One is horseback and other isn't? Gun Dog scored on retrieving?

Range.
All age is not about having a dog working in front of you..you have to have a horse and the dog is to be a pin dot on the horizon to be found on point
AS for Gundog that is a closer range dog and unless it states that it is a walking trial most everyone will be on horseback.
also unless a stake posts that it is a retrieve stake there will be no shooting of the birds only blanking and sending the dog on
Majority of the retrieve stakes you will find will be the AKC GSP Wirehair and vizsla trials where they wll offer retrieve stakes as they require a win in a retrieve stake to get a title
the Brittany only requires that a 3 pt or better win be in a trial that the Brittany club hosts no matter what breed fills that brittany hosted trial

Lol it is very stupid. Considering winning a GSP or Wire hair trial is more prestigious. Also that they don't need any retrieving points.

Re: Brittany Field Trials --
GSP's need four retrieving points to get a title and at least one 3 point major to be titled. As for pros they can't carry any points to the amt. side but you can carry four points to the fc side.

And the retrieving points dealy? I've judged enough call-back for ret to know this....it's a "bleeping" joke. If the retrieving that is demonstrated at the local GSP/GWP FT is what "you" are willing to settle for....let's just stop the futile exercise right now.

It's my opinion....there's more to it than that presently. However, that may have been the original intent.slistoe wrote: It is intended to bolster the local clubs by keeping them running trials.
