Thread: Turk

Took Turk out for his first hunt today, Had a bit of a cluster fuck at the end of it, jammed gun resulted in a few of the mob getting away. Also first attempt at videoing things too so bear with me.

First video, pretty boring, but short enough for you to humour me:



Second video, the stuff up with the gun Video starts after first shot, I kneel down, whistle the dog back in, and fire at a second nanny. Then the rest of the mob runs up hill and Turk gets a close encounter! At least he was steady to billy. Camera woman turns camera off, I biff gun into the next watershed!

Shit just getting into that then ya pulled the plug on the 2nd vid

Sorry mate I don't know what I've done. New to uploading videos. Bear with me!
*Edit* finally figured out youtube!

Brilliant that was clear footage!

Thanks, not bad for the camera womans first attempt! Tried to set the dog up for a textbook shot, goes to show murphy really is a prick. Still, no harm done I guess

How old is Turk? Well done to the camera lady!!!

Bloody good stuff man... Love seeing a dog work like that... as in tune with you as the game... real pleasure to watch.

can you post a pic of turk from front on bro

EBs Turk wouldn't be a year old just yet, will have to check.

Ruff Although we haven't met (yet), you have helped both directly over the phone, and with your great write ups. There are hundreds of great books on the hows, but not many take time to explain the whys. Cheers

Uplander I don't think the forum is ready for such hairiness. But for anyone who has any eye for an ugly dog here goes:

a guy i shot geese with a few weeks back has a labxgwp that looks like turk

I remember you saying at your place - a yellow lab x gwp?

Thats cute at least its a working dog

Cute? I reckon hes butt ugly. I haven't told him that yet though, it would break his hairy little heart. He is linebred on the two most trials-winning HWVs in history, and out of good hunt tested stock on the sires side. Biddability plus. Lots of point and retrieve. My only real criticism of him is his range, but considering he shares kennels with some hard running dogs maybe its just me

He's fucking Ugly alright... but they all look awesome doing the right job!
