    Did that guy you were given the contact of the thread you posted before give you much good info?

    Also, twoshotkill, there is a short section in Red Deer in NZ by Lentle and Saxon which should give something to start on. If you've got the time, join your nearest gundog/GSP club; I'm sure that you'd get some help there. I think the one up here in Auckland puts on training courses.
    Yeah nah bro

    Phil has it covered actually. Mine was by the same author. Must have cut and pasted it onto an email for some reason.....he does a piece on Deer indicator dogs.

    Good info Tussock.
    Seeing as I have a wire-haired pointer, I might look for someone who might have a similar breed.
