Looking to join a Club

[djc1285]

I am fairly new to the sport of bird hunting and am interested in getting more active by joining a club. I have been training my Britt pup on a preserve and have been hunting pheasants and chukars. I am from southeastern Michigan.

Any suggestions?
Thanks

you might want to check into NSTRA- another good Britt up there would be nice

got a picture you can put up of yours- tell us some more

I'm sure your local Brittany club would welcome a new member. You can check here to see which is closest:

Also, check to see if there are any NAVHDA clubs close to you. You won't find any nicer and helful people, IMO. You don't have to participate in the NAVHDA tests to be a member and particapate in their training days.

Thanks for the suggestions, I'll look into those. Here are some pictures of my 8 month female, Meadow. I live in Washtenaw County right now and I'm training her at Colonial Farms in Chelsea, MI.
So far she's doin pretty good, we just gotta work on holding her point a little better. As for me, I'm 24 yrs old and pretty new to bird hunting.

She is a cuttie: Check out NAVHDA.org and find a club. There are training clinics near every month except hunting and deep snow.
Welcome to the fold.

good age for you and your first pointing dog- nice looking Britt- she's pretty young to be asked to hold point for very long- I'd try to hurry and come in from in front of her-
