January 09 Training Update

With hunting season over we are starting regular training again. Cash has been running a combination of pattern blinds and cold blinds on land. We have been using the pattern blinds to improve running by the gunners and previous marks and to run through/over obstacles, as per Mike Lardy's method. On cold blinds we have been using ducks to reinforce his enthusiasm and to encourage him to run further and with more confidence. We have also been mixing in drills to improve his lining and casting.
