We are in a weather delay, there has been a driving rainstorm since 1pm right after we (Clint ) ran...
the Triple was thrown Long left Retired, middle gun, not retired but difficult to see after the dog comes out of the swale, and the flyer shot on the right away from the test
It is a good solid test
The judges had hoped to get a second test started but with the thunder and possible lightning that appears unlikely, it has however dropped the temp in the mid 60's
the second series of the Open is a double land blind thru yesterdays!st series marks...I do not know any of the specifics because I was gunning at the Amateur...
The First series of the Amateur consisted of a long Left hand bird thrown RT>LFT, measures at 345 yards, I was the second gun on the RT @ 125 yards thrown RT> LFT....the Flyer was in the Middle thrown slightly inward at about 130 yards...My bird was thrown angled back toward the back side of the Flyer gunners
The weather is overcast high 67 degrees, stiff wind at about 10-15 mph across the test from RT>LEFT
and yes I am posting this on my Mac Book using my Verizon hot spot, while in the gallery, signal is fairly strong
I didn't stick around for callbacks to the Open fourth after I ran the water blind. Open callbacks to third were: 3,4,6,8,9,12,14,16,17,18,19,22,25,26,27,30,31,33,34,36,39,40,42,43,45,48,51,54,55,56,58,60,62,63,64,66,67,69
Congrats to all finishers in the Derby and Qual but especially to Joe Glass (who took 1st in the Derby w/Trout and in the Qual w/Indy) and to you Jean w/your Derby 2nd!
Thank you, Jean. I really wish he had been there with me when I was surprised with the Win. He deserves most of the credit for Jackie's accomplishments!
I thought John would post Am results because I believed he stayed to the end. This is what I got from Florence as she was driving out and I did not have pen and paper when she called.
Amateur
1) Bill Fruehling and George
2) Breck Howard and Kid
3) John Robinson and Gus
4) Florence Sloane and Jones

R-Jam. 51 Tab. Rick Arnold
Jams to dogs #5,11,21,27,36,40,43, 45 and 52
Thank you to the members of the Treasure State RC for your hospitality. My brother and I always enjoy visiting your trial and seeing many friends both old and new.
Thank you for allowing me to be a gunner/thrower at the Amateur and seeing some great dog work
Congratulations to Kareen, Mike and Jackie on the Open win and FC and AFC titles! And for Bill Frueling and Jackie and Shaq's son, George, winning the Am! Awesome and a wonderful reward for all the hard work!
Thank you! Couldn't do this without the help and encouragement of our great training partner in Portland! We are so proud of Wood River's Mr. Big for his win! It is a great breeding and we hope all their offsprings are successful in the future!
Thank you, Jeff! Mike deserves most of the credit!
