Working Elettra on pheasant scented bumpers 7-31-21

  • 3 years ago
Since I don't have actual birds to train Elettra on, I'm using Pheasant-scented bumpers. Elettra hasn't trained in years and hasn't been on a bird in four years, so I'm basically re-introducing her to hunting and working on her conditioning. She seems to be going through the motions of pointing, but she's using her nose well so that's good enough for me. She's always crouched or had a sit-down method of pointing, which, as she's aged, has become more pronounced - but then style doesn't put birds on the plate.
