Hey Jennifer,
Did mike or anyone describe the open tests to you?
I'm kind of curious just how tough it was.
The 1st must have been interesting. I notice that 16 field champions didn't get past the 1st.
Also, with only 7 called back to the 4th at about 4PM, a 97 dog open could finish on Sat. ?

OPEN 1st series = Triple with 2 retired guns. Long retire and flyer criss-crossed. The flyer was actually under the arch of the long retired, so the line to the long retired was over the top of the flyer gunners. So, dogs putshed off right or left or ended up hunting back at the flyer.
2nd Series = Big pile of trash on the left, flyer crates on the right. They needed to go through the goal post. Most did, but then it sounded like there were a lot of problems at the end of the blind. It was really windy.
3rd Series = Not sure......

AMATEUR CALL BACKS TO THE 3rd: 16 dogs back
4,5,8,9,10,11,13,19,21,29,35,42,45,49,53,54

QUAL = They were still running the land...may have gotten done, but I don't know the call backs, sorry.

DERBY = CORRECTION!!!!!! I apologize, Mike Long did not win the derby, one of his clients did. Sorry about that. I am getting this at second hand. I am a little out of the area..... I still have not heard what the other placements were.

2,6,8,11,13,14,15,20,22,23,25,26,29,32,33,35,36,37,39,41,43,44

Wind was really bad, dogs missed alot of whistles. I think the judges were being kind.

Nice test.

3rd series Open water blind, long down hill land entry into running water, across a dike, re entry into swimming water with a strong cross wind. Dogs drifting with the wind had a brief interval to get on line or out of sight. A tough blind more demanding than usual. Dogs had problems with the re entry, poor handling, and whistle refusals because of the high wind.
