This series was a quad with 3 flyers and one controlled bird. First bird down was a pheasant flyer at approximately 200 yards out. Angled up the hill from right to left. Second bird down, a duck, is a controlled bird thrown to the right at an angle back toward the first bird down (approximately 175 yards from the line). Third bird down is a duck flyer thrown left to right toward the last bird down. The last bird down is a duck flyer at approximately 225 yards and being shot left to right. All gun stations, except for last bird down, retire while the dog is retrieving the last bird down.

Ninth Series

Ninth series started on a very cold morning at Cooper Black. This test was a land triple with one retired gun. The first bird thrown was a duck at approximately 300 yards from the line (thrown right to left). Guns retired into a blind and there was an extra brush/wood pile that was put together near the blind. The second bird was a duck to the left of the line thrown right to left. This was approximately 100 yards away. The third bird was a flyer hen pheasant thrown right to left and angling back. This was to the right of the line and was approximately 100 yards away.

All 15 had been called back to the tenth series.
