Those of you who know Maurice are his friend - no exceptions. His calm and quiet training style has helped to create many field champions and hunting companions. To watch him train is to watch a master of his craft.

2009 Fall Field Trial

held at Coney Lake Plantation

The party is over! And a great weekend was had by all at the 2009 Georgia Brittany Fall Field Trial. The weather cooperated with us with cool mornings even though the afternoons got rather warm. The clear blue skies did limit the bird work, but it made for shirt sleeve weather and I got a tan!
