Test Description for Series 3 Land & Water Triple w/ an Honor

This beautiful Oregon morning we are overlooking a valley on the Kahn Ranch, it is here two stair-step ponds are nestled among the hills. The sky is overcast with a whisper of wind coming out of the Southeast, switching out of the East at times. The mat is facing due South on a gentle rise about 50 yrds away from the first pond the dogs encounter. This is a water/land combination marking test with two retired guns stations and a flyer. There is also an honor included in this standard triple that is taking the dogs 6:00 minutes to complete. The order in which the guns are shot begin with the middle, then left-hand gun station, and lastly the flyer is the go-bird. There are large square bales sprinkled throughout the landscape. The Judges have taken full advantage of these bales by staking them tall around the holding blinds of the retired gun stations. We will refer to the gun stations as such, Middle Retired (MR), Left Retired (LR), Flyer. All birds are hen mallards.

 GOOD LUCK TO ALL!!!
