Is it possible to be a completive Sportsman?
By Rene Schmitt
Is it possible to give your
dog the same inspirational talk after hes hunted his heart out only finding
one bird that you are giving the guy next to you while drinking a cold one?
I believe so
..
Is it possible while judging to be a gentleman with your direction,
knowledgeable about your decisions and up lifting in your comments on a handlers
or dogs performance?
I believe so
..
It possible to train hard with an intense desire to win that borders obsession
and still know true meaning of success?
I believe so....................
Is id possible to be elated for your fellow trialers placement all the while
envy whisper it should had been me
I believe so
..
Is it possible to be gracious with thanks to your judge, for having the tenacity
and determination the whole day through, against all odds?
I believe so
..
Is it possible to be able to welcome with open arms the rookies of the sport,
never glancing with the evil eye for the intrusion upon your bird mathematics?
I believe so
..
Is it possible that the sport of field trial could die if there were no birds to
plant by the bird planter, no judges to compare and place us, no entries to fill
the braces, no field marshals to call us to the line, no chairman to organize
and host the trials?
I believe so
..
Is it possible for a true, competitive sportsman to value each and every job
giving only constructive comments never falling victim to slanderous or
destructive ways?
I believe so
..
Is it possible for the sport of field trial to continue on its up ward track,
flourishing in new found friends and the next generation of dogs to amaze us?
I believe so
