EP 60: Grand Recap: There’d Still Be Dogs in Kentucky Looking for That Bird
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This one is a full-on grand debrief with Tyler Brenner, Bill Schaffer, and Clark Kennington after surviving one of the toughest International Grands in recent memory.
We break down the tests, the brutal cover, birds nobody could see, drag backs from hell, and the mental gymnastics dogs had to do just to survive. The guys dive deep into the Avery water, Garmin water, Hoss Straps land, and Winter Timber series while sharing what separated the successful dogs from the ones headed home early.
Clark also announces his new venture, FowlCraft Kennels & Champion Gun Dogs, and the conversation eventually spirals into hotel parking lot stories, questionable chicken wings, and why Tyler may or may not live inside The Matrix.
If you love high-level retriever talk, grand strategy, and the chaos that comes with running elite dogs at elite events, this episode is for you.
