Image
 First track:  about 60 yards total, 1 turn.  42 degrees, sunny, dry.  Run at 1:30 p.m.  Aged 1.25 hours. Nailed uphill start into woods.  Stopped for almost ALL food drops.  Food drops were pretty random.  Just trying to navigate woods & pick good line-ups.  Still working on the double line-ups.  Nice turn in woods. Then nice exit. Hesitated on straight out of woods, but then got right on track.  Did not indicate or stop at glove.. . pretty much walked over it.  So I just held him until he finally indicated.  Need to play glove games in the house. Second track:  130 yards total, 1 turn.  Scuff 5, walk 5, SP. Scuff 5, walk 10, SP.  Scuff 5 walk 20 SP. Repeat pattern.   Just realized both tracks had a LEFT turn.  42 degrees sunny and dry.  Slight breeze.  Aged 1 hr 50 minutes.  Nice start parallelling woods.  Taking most of food drops. Great left turn, Crossed 2 paved...

Buster - Fisherman Cove 11/25

 42 degrees Sunny Dry, lots of leaves. 125 yards with one right turn.Scuff 5, W10, food 8 & 9.    Aged 30 minutes.  Holy crap!  This boy is going to kill me!  So frikin strong!!  Need to start tracking on the prong. :Did a 3-second down and then wanted to go.  Very hard pull from the start.  Skipped most of food. A little bit of quartering back & forth.  Nice right turn.  Casted a little and lifted head. . .so I stopped.  At one point he pulled me off balance while back tracking and I stepped on his foot. He yellped.  We paused for a bit, then he got right back to work. Stopped at the glove and went down briefly after several commands.  He  seems to have great fun!
