Flyer - Buck pushed off the island and went out of the second water. He made some smart moves and entered the area of the fall in good position to snap up the bird.

Middle - Good team effort to identify and lock on to the middle retired gun. Buck went across the water and drove the hill. He sets up a hunt pattern deep and to the right. He checks back deep and right, then checking back again, he had to be handled to the middle bird.

Right - Buck's initial line is taking him right of the line. Buck continues the same trajectory through the next water. At the shoreline and had to be handled to the bird.
