8th Series

Test Eight is a Water Double. The mat sits on a terrace facing northwest. We are overlooking a series of ponds. Wind is out of the southeast at 5-10 mph.

Bird #1 is a dead drake thrown left across a small channel from a point on the right side at 320 yards. The line to this bird goes down the hillside, across pond one, over a levee with deep cover, and into pond two past the point to the far shore in the channel. 

Bird #2 is a dead drake. The gunners will throw and shoot to the right causing the bird to land in the pond just right of the corner at 200 yards. Decoys are in the opposite corner of the pond. 

Both birds appear to converge on top of each other when thrown. This test is taking an average of seven minutes per dog to run.
