| Mike McGinnis rides during the early moring of the the
Western Open Derby Classic. The Classic is in honor of
Lorene Brock who has contributed and supported Region
11 as well as other field trials. |
|
| Nicky McGinnis is also ready to ride during the derdy.
Both Mike and Nicky are wonderful people and they know bird
dogs. They had five derby dogs in the derby and it kept
them busy. |
|
|
| Jerry Lewis from Kansas is a great guy with a wonderful
sense of humor. Jerry is a professional trainer and handler
of bird dogs and gives credit to Richard Robertson, Bill
West and others for providing him help and guidance in his
training methods. |
|
| Mardelle Mauck of Tekoa Mountain Sunrise Kennels rode
most if not all the braces. Mardel is riding a young horse
she recently purchased and they seem to get along quite
well. I want to thank her for fixing the chin strap on one
of the horses I rode. The horse hadn't been ridden lately
and it seemed like I was riding without a birdle bit. |

|
| Mazie Davis with judges Roy Ferney (in red)
and Roy Epp in the background judged the Derby Classic Mazie
was up to the task as she is an experieced field trialer
and judge. Mazie was also the reporter for the trial. |
|
| Rich Robertson, from Idaho, just before running in the
Derby. Rich handled Jack's Grandson Lee in the first brace
of the derby. |
