2024 GSPCI - VCOI Mock Hunt Test
Sunday, June 2, 2024
The event, held on the East Grounds of the Des Plaines Fish and Wildlife Area, is open to all current GSPCI and VCOI members and will include Junior, Senior and Master levels. The Mock Hunt Test will simulate an AKC sanctioned hunting test with a bird field, judges, and gunners (where required). Training collars and check cords are permitted.
Novice handlers will have experienced club members available to coach them for their braces. You will receive your scores and suggestions at the conclusion of your brace. No ribbons will be awarded.
Each brace will provide the AKC required time in the bird field but may have an abbreviated back course. A copy of the AKC Pointing Dog Hunting Test Rule Book can be found on the AKC.org website under AKC Rules and Regulations (Pointing Breed Hunting Tests).
The day begins with the Master level dogs on the line at 8:00 a.m., followed by the Senior, then Junior level dogs. The running order will be posted on the club websites by Thursday evening prior to the test.
