Bomber has 1 Jr leg to finish from last yr. I will bump him to Sr on Sun if he finishes. He is not really ready, he is steady on birds, but is not catching on to backing. I thought I might luck up and Whoa him. I am tryng to finish Chance who needs 2 legs, and run Sally who I have been trying to get steady thu the shot from running NSTRA. She`s a wild child.

The last thing I want to do is stain any credibility I have, if any, with all parties in this hunt test. But, I’m getting lots of email/calls about what happened. So, hopefully I can sum it up nice and neat. There was miscommunication on which course to run and FT vs. HT rules, that escalated and led to the event being canceled. Those that showed up Sat. managed to run, but the Sunday event was canceled. Sorry to those who called me Sat. night to find out the details for the Sun. hunt test. I wasn’t answering the phone. I got your messages last night...

I did hear that JH’s that ran the first two braces will be reimbursed.

FWIW, I really enjoyed the grounds at Luke Weavers place! It seemed like a great place for an event...

Hope it all gets worked out...we don't need that in our hobby.

That is a shame for all those that spent the time preparing their dogs and the time and money in going.

What comes around goes around….

But yes, seems like egos cost all of us $. I feel bad for the folks that came all the way from NC and AL. I know I have to save $ for these events. I’ll be more selective where I put my put my hard earned cash now… If you catch my drift…
