Thread: Pointer and Setter Trials

A man I consider a mentor would disagree... He travelled there numerous times with GSPs and Curlys.

The southerners are a pragmatic bunch, not to be fussed with bullshit pigeon trials. Where they have been traditionally strong is in in retriever trials, and more recently, spaniel trials

Is that you saying bullshit pigeon trials or are you saying they think that ?Anyone that say pigeon trials are Bullshit better be winning them to cast such a negative opinion !!
Some of the Pointer Setter people are not big on them but obviously see some value as they all attend them and those trials will show a dogs faults up also at the drop of a hat .Some may not like the contrived situation but that doesnt mean they have a dog trained up enough to always win them

Here you go then....despite your alleged 'support' of Testing and having never seen or participated in it, you suggest that it is inferior. In actual fact, it is simply different in terms of how people make use of it.

Me wearing tweed has never been in dispute. My offense (and that of others) is from when you say others look like 'ditch diggers' simply because of what they choose wear.
