Hey bob love your videos and podcast! Your podcast has helped me so much with my 3 year old lab. I had him retrieving and didn’t know what the next step was until I started listening to your podcast. Now I’m working 3 handed casting and he was slow at first but picking it up quickly and pushing me to be a better trainer and handler. Thank you for your videos and the podcasts there is so much great info and I’ve learned so much from them. It’s a great feeling seeing that light come back in your dogs eyes when he’s learning something new after being stagnant on just retrieving for a while. Thank you bob for giving me the tools to be a better trainer and better my dog I truly appreciate it.

That’s so awesome, thank you! Glad it’s helpful, keep up the good work!

Bob another good thing with this drill is teaching a dog your marking cues way out, easy, and then adding in the voice inflection louder for longer sends and softer for the easy/shorter birds.

I would love to see your process from start to finish with a dog. A guide for day 1 to day 100. Love the videos btw

[@loneduckoutfitters]

We are working towards that! Thank you

Can you do a a video about the "Baseball" or the "W" drill? These videos are great and thank you to providing something to us amateurs?

[@loneduckoutfitters]

Yea can do! Thank you for watching

What distance are these marks? Do you stretch them out in succession? Love your stuff by the way, very informative and helpful, a big Thank You to you and Kevin for your content.

[@loneduckoutfitters]

Typically, long bird station is 120-150 yards and I bring the other marks in a towards us, according to the factors and how tight I want it. Shortest mark is probably 60 yards

[@radar091974]

Are you looking for a cross wind when training, or is it best to train with the young dog down wind? Not sure if you e touched on this in any of your podcasts, I haven’t listened to all of them yet.

[@loneduckoutfitters]

Never say never but I almost never run with the wind in our face. I want a cross wind or wind at our back. I want them marking, go to area of the fall, then hunt

[@DadDare]

Why is it called ABC? Is it because each throwing station is a different kind of retrieve?

[@loneduckoutfitters]

That’s a great question, I don’t actually know the answer 😎
