Shooting begins at 9 for those traveling long distances... for all others it starts at 9 ;-)

Afraid I'm going to have to miss this shoot. My 8 mos old English setter, Sophie, is in full blown heat. My outdoor kennel isn't heated and I would prefer not to leave her in the house alone (when there's no one around to let her out to do her biz) for that length of time.

Well I guess that's a pretty good reason Allen.
See you next time. .

Sophie is quite special. I've had her at Markover on three occasions and she has performed flawlessly. Hunts close, doesn't range wide, quarters on command, points like a fool and retrieves to hand. She's located and pointed all the birds put out and then some. Her retrieving to hand is natural and is without any training from me. She's unbelievable and I'm looking forward to working her next season on woodcock and grouse in Maine. The two guides at Markover that we've used are just blown away at how natural she hunts. I'll miss this shoot for sure
