What a difference a day can make! Sunday it was all sunshine and blue skies at the TBDA Trial Grounds in Inola. The top eight dogs from yesterday’s competition regrouped and squared off to battle for the title of Top Dog 2014. The action started off slow as scenting conditions had changed considerably. A lack of wind and dry air caused some dogs to have issue, while others decided to take the day off and go for a run. In the end the title of top dog went to Kent Long’s Pointer, Stick, in a race decided by time of…

What a day we had Saturday! Rain, near freezing temperatures and variable winds resulted in some hard fought scores at the 2014 Oklahoma Gun Dog Championship.

  The 2013 spring field trial season ended with a bang! Gary Byfield and his English Setter Buddy ran away with first place in the 7th brace of the day.
