SERIES ONE: Interrupted Double with a Blind
Good
Morning! We are starting our First Series with a light wind coming from
the northwest. Temperatures are currently in the 60's and not a cloud
in the sky. Lighting conditions will stay stable.
The
field for our First Series is framed in timber with the line sitting
atop a mound facing southeast into a gently rolling field.
There is a gravel road which elbows through the bottom right corner.
Our first series is a Interrupted Double with a Blind. The birds are ...
RG (Retired Gun) - Hen Pheasant
Blind - Mallard Hen
Flyer - Rooster Pheasant
The
Retired Gun is 262 yards from the line and is a hen pheasant thrown
angled back right. The rooster Flyer and is shot angle back right
towards the tree line at approximately 242 yards. The blind is up the
middle of the test at 284 yards. The field is a meadow with very natural
cover approximately 8" high with a dirt track that goes off the elbow
of the road perpendicular to the line.
The blind is HOT and the gunners will retire as soon as the dog sends.
This test is taking longer than the predicted five minutes per dog.
