2008 National Retriever Championship: Series 2 & 3

This picture is from the NRC website and shows the combined land and water blinds for the 2nd and 3rd series. I added some arrows to show the approximate lines to the blinds. The blinds are complicated by the dogs' memories of the previous gunner stations and old falls of the marks. Also, the water blind has a very difficult water entry. The dog ideally would take a direct line into the thin sliver of water and then return on that same line.
