So far so good.... Its pretty cool to see all the pictures and blog of the Pre-national training. And that picture of Slider, might be the best picture of a retriever I have ever seen on-line. Hope the trial coverage is as good as this.... or better

The event traditionally held in November is the National Retriever Championship
The event traditionally held in June is the National Amateur Retriever Championship.
One is limited to amateurs, the other is not.
Not sure why the term "National Open" is needed.

Now you are talking titles. Before you were talking events.
National Retriever Club sponsors the National Retriever Championship and the winner becomes that year's National Field Champion (NFC). The same is true for amateur and you add the Amateur after National. HPW

So, to put it all together:
NFC = National Field Champion
NAFC = National Amateur Field Champion
FC = Field Champion
AFC = Amateur Field Champion
NRC or National Retriever Championship, or just National, is open to Pros and amatuers
NARC or National Amatuer Retriever Championship, or National Amatuer, is open to amatuers only
The winner of the National gets the title of NFC.
The winner of the National Amatuer gets the title of NAFC
NFC = National Field Champion
NAFC = National Amateur Field Champion
FC = Field Champion
AFC = Amateur Field Champion
NRC or National Retriever Championship, or just National, is open to Pros and amatuers

The winner of the National Amatuer gets the title of NAFC

will that be considered the sixth and seventh series, or just one series ?
if it is a land and water blind, would they have the option of which one you want to tackle first ?
and if so, which one would you choose to run first ? Why

Dang, Pirate was dropped. Looks like he didn't have a very good 5th series. Jim Gonia and the dogs he was running, Ford and NFC Emmitt were dropped also. The 5th was a tough series as they cut a bunch of dogs, about 40% from the previous series.
Dr. Eds dog (Holland) is still hanging tough.
