Some key points for safety and to make the most of the training day are as follows:

  • Bring water for you and your pup

  • As well, you may want to bring some snacks for yourself as well as your pup

  • All participants will have hunter safety orange vest and cap

  • Safety glasses are mandatory

  • Ear protection is highly recommended

  • For gunners, only size #8 and #9 lead shot are to be used in the field

  • If you are planning to use pigeons during the training session, there will be a fee for the pigeons that are shot, but there are no fees for the homing pigeons as they are not being shot.  This fee is necessary to replenish our bird supply.  You will need to notify us of the number of birds you will need using the WhatsApp Group and payment will need to be made using the E-transfer email address below prior to the training day.
