This is a team effort, with the bulk of the work being done by Shayne
I like the summaries that Lainee has prepared
Speaking of which, can we have an update?

Wow, pushing 30 percent of dogs handling in the 1st/2nd with about a dozen left to run. That sounds like a bear of a test. Wish we were there to run.
Thanks to everyone there who's reporting and sharing photos. That's great. Can't wait to hear what the judges put up tomorrow.

The right had bird landed around 15yrds to the left of the tree, right in that little ditch... some dogs literally jumped over the top of it and went up the hill, having to be handled. Dogs that went way to the right on that mark, seemed to live through it.
If you look at the single tree with the big rock in the top left corner of the pic of the test, thats where the blind is. Handlers this afternoon were having to get ultra creative on getting the dogs to see them on the line, sun was bad.
The wind was bad too, the flyer was shot almost directly into the wind, resulting in all the no-birds. 1-2 no birds on the memory bird that landed short of the ditch... those dogs came right back without waiting.
I've been texting all day and my phone was going dead, Staci is sick (her mom went over to care for her) so i couldn't let my phone completely die.... so i left the mountain (and the $12 chuck wagon lunch) and came back to the room.
You can't bank on the "big hunt, med hunt" thing. Half the time i was yappin with someone and just know that they either handled or didn't. If the hunt was substantial i put it in there, but not mentioning the hunt does not mean they didn't have a monster.

Ted,
Do you know if they have announced a "last dog" number yet?
Also do you know who is running now?
