BUFFY and MOZZIE bring home the bacon!

At the Sunflower Retriever Club Field Trial, Buffy took Second in the Amateur and Mozzie took Second in the Qualifying.

Mootsie was clean going into the fourth series of the Open, but could not come up with the money bird.

Ace and Zowie made it to the fourth series of the Amateur, but the wipeout bird blew them up.  Fortunately, it did not blow up Buffy!

CLOSING THE DEAL

Pikes Peak - Ace

Fort Collins - Ace Second

Rocky Mountain - Buffy

Missouri Valley - Zowie Third

Topeka - Ace

We have one more try to bring home the blue in 2006 - Tulsa in two weeks
