yds Posted February 17, 2012 Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 Another lucky chap scored a heart shot off sticks at near darkness at 85m's. It ran 50m's into forrestry and breeze made a good follow up wearing her flashing collar. His first deer on his first outing thats x3 novice first outing kills this month. this is one of the better parts of my job. he'll remember tonight forever.

coyotemaster Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 Well done and congrats on the fine dog. That is an idea I would like to put to use here. Is the training complicated? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yds Posted February 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 Well done and congrats on the fine dog. That is an idea I would like to put to use here. Is the training complicated? well if you want my honest answer she has never been trained as such. I have never taught her to sit and stay or lay down. From one year on she was allowed to be with me on a 1ft lead for 3 weeks then allowed her head. ever since she has been hunting with me twice a day and is just naturally "steady" and has a natural flair for stalking.

Thanks! I think I picked up a big clue in the Twice a day hunting, the time you spend with her afield has afforded her the knowledge she has gained. Experience makes a dog. I get in the field quite a bit, but am envious of your experience. The next lab I train will learn to track as well as handle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yds Posted February 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 I have never lost a beast with her yet, other then 1 which was shot low in the front leg and was a very strong runner and made it over my boundry and into forrestry. I keep thinking when i'm up there I may shoot a 3 legged doe. We take 150+ deer a year so she gets plenty of work including tracking. have you seen this matey. http://forums.pigeonwatch.co.uk/forums/index.php?/topic/198087-you-have-to-see-this/page__pid__1694648#entry1694648 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
