To KyBeagle2-
Maybe you should come to Casey Co. and see what you think for yourself???
I like lp better than AKC cause like Blair said its more convenient for people who have to work or whatever. And just like lp.. I've heard people complain about AKC and how thier dog should have stayed down longer, or the judge just didn't look at thier dog.. bla bla bla.. thats part of it... People are gonna cry either way you go.
If you cant handle the heat.. get out of the oven.
BEFORE YOU ALL NEED A PAIR OF WADERS, HERE IS MY PROBLEM.
TWO DIFFERENT JUDGES HAVE TOLD ME SEVERAL TIMES THAT I "HAVE TO PAY MY DUES." WHAT IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN? EVEN IF THE DOG WINS, BECAUSE I'M NOT IN THE IN CROUD, I'M NOT WORTHY? COME ON!
IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE ABOUT THE BEST DOG, THAT HOUR!!!! NO MATTER WHO HOLDS THE LEAD.
AND I WAS NOT REFERRING TO LIBERTY ALONE. AND WAS NOT REFERRING TO MYSELF ALONE.
BUT WHILE WE ARE ON THE SUBJECT, WAS OVER AT SILER FOR FIRST HUNT, INVITED PEOPLE TO EUBANK, WAS TOLD BUY ONE MAN HE WOULD NOT BE GOING THERE TO A BUDDY JUDGING CLUB. ASK WHY HE THOUGHT THAT, HE SAID BOYS FROM LIBERTY TOLD HIM ALL ABOUT THAT CLUB. THEN ANOTHER PERSON SPOKE UP, SAID THEY HAD OUGHT TO KNOW, THEY DID MOST OF THE JUDGING!
THE MAIN MAN AT LIBERTY HAS CONTINUALLY TOLD OTHERS THAT I AND THIS CLUB ARE NOTHING BUT A JOKE. WELL I LIKE TO HAVE A GOOD LAUGH. OH, BY THE WAY, PEOPLE JUST KEEP TELLING THIS AND WHEN I ASK, THEY TELL ME THEY HEARD IT STRAIGHT FROM M.....
WE HAVE TALKED ABOUT SUPPORTING ONE ANOTHERS CLUBS, BUT WHEN IS IT GOING TO BE 2-WAYS?
DON'T SMILE TO MY FACE, THEN STAB ME IN THE BACK! G.... DOES A GOOD JOB AT THAT ALREADY.
When I came to Eubank (its been ages ago) I didn't see anything wrong. I didn't like the idea that on one cast we drove 24 miles to get to a hunt site and when we got there we didn't have a single rabbit one. But other than that I couldn't complain.
I'm guessing your talking about Mark when you say M....??? Am I correct?
I don't know of an "in crowd'-but I do know if you have a good dog that puts on a show its going to stand out of the crowd.
I'm vice President at Liberty and I don't think that anyone that is a member or serves on the board of our club has said anything bad about your club so STOP trying to start stuff that you know nothing about and if you run your dogs as much as your mouth you might win or place at any hunt you go to....last but not least I have been to your club and most of our board members have been to your club from time to time and we did not say bad things about your club so I would appreciate it if you would know more about what your talking about before you get on here and talk about members of our club, and if you have a problem with people you should tell them instead of getting on here and bashing thier name and club....I think that we should all work together to make every hunt go smooth as possible weather its at your club or mine.
I have hunted out of the clubs that are being talked about, and I know most everyone in this post and talk to most of you quite often and I for one can say that I have never heard anyone bashing or talking bad about Eubank. Havent heard anyone talk bad about Liberty either. I can honestly say that it doesnt look good people coming on here and talking bad about the clubs that are close to there home. How many people do you see on here from other states whining about there neighboring clubs? Just Kentucky. It looks bad dont it? We are one of the best field trialing state around. We have bigger hunts than anywhere around here. and I could probably set here and name off some judges that I would say are UNFAIR. but I cant name a single club that I can say... THAT WHOLE CLUB IS UNFAIR. grow up and act like an adult and stop trying to cause trouble.
I agree with KY Joe, lets not get caught up in all this complaining and bashing of Individuals and Clubs. I really enjoy going to the Trials and being with everyone but all this wining and fussing can take the fun out of it. There have been times when I feel like my dog did not get all it deserved but some of those time (and it seems some can't admit this) I may have been wrong. A few of the other times I may have got shafted by buddy judging but the fun of competing the dogs and talking with everyone far out weighs these type of problems. We need to all work together to keep our clubs and trials strong so they last for the long haul.
I agree with you boy's 100%, I just don't see why the guy got on here Saying things bout the club, i will Be back at HIS Club next sat or w/e there next hunt is and i hope it comes back to Mine! I am usually Somewheres at a Club Allmost every Sat.....I love to field trial and i Love to win, and Yes i have been beat more then i won, and i have felt like i didten get judged fair a time or too, but everone feels that way from time to time, but 99% of the time i am judged fair! but like i said in a post before all of this got out of hand a good dog will win more then lose! But most of all field trialing is bout beenin with friends you have met and to listen to some good Race's......
Just imagine a brand new reader here interested in trialing,,, Oh My God, I Don't Need This Hastle in my life!!!! And there goes another potential trialer down the road!! And yes the internet has that much power folks...
i went down there for the first time. I don't field trial much but thought the staff and the people down there were great. Especially Jeff Thomas!!!
I watched 2 cast and Frank Judged them both. Hard to keep up with the dogs but i though he done a heck of a job. My dog tied for first in his cast and it went on hunting and handle. I would have hated to make the decision but i think he made the right one. Hey fellas down at liberty keep up the good work. Josh Milliner
Hey shoopman i need a win real bad . would you please judge me and i will be down asap . you cheaters . You boys are ok dont let these fellas wear ya out ... Everybody thought our club was a buddy club funny though , they kept coming back . And when they would win they were my ol buddies ... SCREW EM THATS MY THOUGHTS . Dont leave ol so and so on the chain ,run em twice in a month - then bring a knife to the gun fight . run em they are at casey co . Most important dont try to break em at field trial
I knew sombody was gonna crack!!! Now we got guns and knives in the mix!!! Dang,, we're gonna make the nightly news before this is over and all over a trophy!!! You guys are too funny!!!!!
