Test Dogs:
Test 10 will be a Land and Water Triple with a Sluice on the Tech Ponds. The guns will shoot left to right around the horn.
Gun Station #1 is located 247 yards in front and slightly to the left of the mat. The dog looks down a hill and out across multiple pieces of technical water. The guns shoot and throw a hen mallard to the right, landing on land at the end of a channel. The dog must go down and navigate at least 2 pieces of water to retrieve this bird. (We will refer to this mark as L for Left)
Gun Station #2 is in the middle of the test. These gunners are in front of a large cedar tree facing neutral. They throw angled back towards the cedar. There is a levee in front of these guns that runs from the front to the back of the test that angles away to the left pushing the dogs left and away from the bird. The bird is a hen mallard landing approximately 229 yards from the mat. (We will refer to this mark as M for Middle)
Gun Station #3 is is a flyer station. These gunners are positioned approximately 182 yards away, to the right of the mat. The guns are across the pond on a point, shooting to the right out into the water. A sluice comes after. The bird is a mallard. (We will refer to this mark as F for Flyer)
