Competition Results

Jeff Foster and Steve Foster took first in the flushing category with their lab Breeze, and second place with Bud, also a lab. Mike Winkler’s lab, Candy, netted third place.

In pointing, JR Stivers came in first with Sally, a GSP, and Mark Harstick’s Hannah took 2nd.

The next competition is the 28th and 29th of this month. The season championship is coming up-March 24th and 25th. To enter the Season Championship, you must have 3 competitions in the 2011-2012 season. The championship run can count as one of the 3 required competitions, so if you run in January and February’s competitions, you’ll be eligible. We will be giving a rim fire rifle to the winner in each division, pointing and flushing.
