11/24/23 Two turn track

 11/24/23 Front field, tall dry grass, (my back is out and I took a flexeril so no idea what my food drop ratio really was but I was trying for S5W5F5). Maybe 11:30 and maybe 55 degrees. 

First leg and start were good, he went past the turn and came back, 2nd leg was good, he passed the turn and circled back to me, 3 rd leg was going well until he saw a paper plate that had blown up against the fence. He left the track and ran to investigate (I dropped the leash because my back is hurt). After sniffing the plate, he went into hunt mode and cast back and forth until he found the article and downed.

1/19/25. Short tracks around fences and woods

Image
 1/19/25. Laid these short tracks one at a time, ran him within 5 minutes and put him in the car to marinate while I laid the next one. Food drops varied between 10-15 steps apart. He got better with each track. Track #1. Struggled at the turn into tall cover  https://youtu.be/imxw4lYuoHA?feature=shared Track #2 short track from tall cover to short towards fence  https://youtu.be/bA4Q4ZZpGu4?feature=shared Track #3 Between 2 fences towards woods  https://youtu.be/R9EverPLGJ8?feature=shared Track #4 Parallel woods and turn away  https://youtu.be/88B4jnpOJYc?feature=shared

2/27/25. Blind Hangman at PSP

Image
 2/27/25. Blind Hangman - phone view   https://youtu.be/eGHwtjU4ANI?feature=shared At 1:29 I saw the head turn and he looked back at me so I slowed down and put a little pressure on the line.                                             Go Pro view   https://youtu.be/QFmWaBCJbFs?feature=shared Great head turn and stare at me at 1:37, 1:38. I think I should have stopped instead of slowed down?? 60 degrees, gusts up to 29 mph, 46% humidity     Laid at 9:25, ran at 10:40ish Good start, good articles, stayed with track The random gloves that were 5 yds past the end of the hangman drew him forward and then he is used to continuing on straight after finding an article, so he went straight on. Andrea stopped us and then we did the back up routine until he found the leg. I was happy with our overall performance.
