A Message from the Presidentof the National Retriever Club

On behalf of the National Retriever Club I wish to welcome everyone to the 78th National Retriever Championship being held in the beautiful bluegrass state of Kentucky. We expect an exciting (maybe chilly) field trial as some of the best re-trievers in the country compete for the rare title of National Field Champion.During your visit, I hope you experience some good heart-land hospitality, home cooked meals, maybe a little Kentucky bourbon and have a chance to meet the friendly local folks.Putting together a National Field Trial requires consider-able time and teamwork in the planning and coordination. I would like to thank the Bluegrass, Lincoln Trail and River King Retriever Clubs, the NRC Board of Directors, the field trial Chairman, the field trial committees, the Kentucky Wild-life Site Manager, the Paducah Department of Tourism, our Judges, and all volunteer workers for their time and efforts spent ensuring that everyone has an enjoyable experience. Our Board also wishes to give a special thank you to the City of Paducah, the Western Kentucky Wildlife Management Area Commissioners and personnel, the land owners, local busi-ness owners, contributors, and the local communities for their work and tireless support.We are so very grateful for the continued support from our corporate sponsors. We simply could not do this without them. Thank you!Finally, to our contestants, congratulations to all of the 2018 qualified dogs, owners and handlers. We hope you have a great week and best of luck. Let’s make history!

The 2018 NationalRetriever Championship Stake

Dedicated To Don DriggErs

Don Driggers grew up in South Brunswick, New Jersey. After graduat-ing from Clemson University, he continued his studies at Rutgers Law School in New Jersey and was admitted to the New Jersey Bar Asso-ciation in 1969. Don went on to practice law at Turp, Coates, Essl and Driggers in Hightstown, NJ for over 45 years and became the managing partner.An avid duck hunter, Don served several years as chairman of the Mercer County Chapter of Ducks Unlimited. His real passion, though, was field trial retrievers. He loved to train and compete in AKC Retriever field tri-als throughout the country and devoted much of his life to this sport.

Don’s love of the game began in 1978 when he acquired a Golden Re-triever. He went on to own and train several field champions, includ-ing FC-AFC Twin D’s One Tough Hombre, FC-AFC Corey Chad’s Blue North Axle and AFC Wind River’s Most Wanted, “Felon.” Felon was a Finalist at the 2007 National Amateur in Castle Rock, Utah. Altogether, Don qualified for ten National Amateurs with three different dogs.Giving back to the sport was important to Don. Generous with his time, he judged the 1994 National Open Championship and the 2004 Na-tional Amateur Championship, in addition to judging over 100 All-Age stakes and countless minor stakes. He also chaired the 1992 National Amateur stake in Batavia, New York, and served twice as National Am-ateur president.Don was a past President of the National Bird Dog Museum in Grand Junction Tennessee and was inducted into the Retriever Hall of Fame in 2013. He was an active member of the Talbot Retriever Club, the Shrewsbury River Retriever Club and the South Jersey Retriever Club, and spent time on the Board of Directors of all three clubs, working many trials and serving as President of the Shrewsbury River and South Jersey clubs. He chaired approximately four field trials each year for many years, working local field trials as well as National Amateur trials.Don was revered as a “fine dog man” and mentored many new people to the sport. He passed away in September 2018 and leaves his life part-ner Phyllis McGinn of Oxford and her family, Kelly McGinn-Cordes and Bobby Cordes; Kirsten and Rocky Poole; and granddaughters Per-rin Poole, Emma Poole and Louisa Mae Cordes (who he fondly called the “Bean”).

The 2018 NationalRetriever Championship Stake

Dedicated To CharlEs hays

Words about Charles, by Yvonne …If anyone wanted to know about Charles’ love of dogs, all they had to do was ask him about the dog he had as a kid. Charles’ eyes would tear up when he remembered “Butch,” the cocker spaniel who slept on Charles’ bed and waited for his school bus every day. You could also ask him about any of the little truck dogs that went with the Hays’ training everyday and you would have little doubt that Charles did indeed love dogs.This story, however, is about his passion for the Retriever Field Trial game.Along with his wife Yvonne, Charles served for several years as an editor of the Retriever News Judge’s Corner. A charter member of the National Retriever Derby Club, Charles enjoyed a term as President of the National Amateur Retriever Club and also served on the boards of the Labrador Retriever Club and the Retriever Hall of Fame. In addition, he judged the National Open Championship in 1985.

Charles’ roots in the sport went back to the 1960s, when he ordered a started dog from the advertising pages of Outdoor Life. After several months he worked up his nerve to attend a local “fun” trial, launching a 50-plus-year passion for the Field Trial game. Together Charles and Yvonne have owned over 20 titled field trial dogs.When the PRTA (Professional Retriever Trainer’s Association) was formed, Charles and his buddies immediately created the ARTA (Amateur Retriever Trainer’s Association). Recalling this episode, Yvonne chuckles and admits that they couldn’t have accomplished much without their Professional friends. Whether they were thoughtfully answering questions or providing basic dog training, these Professionals always took time to help.Charles is a member of The Retriever Hall of Fame in Grand Junction, Tennessee, as are three of his dogs: “Mouse,” “Marty” and “Toby.” Winning the National Open with Toby in 1988, Charles also won the Canadian National Amateur in 1990 with Marty. Marty also won the Canadian National Open in 1989 with handler Dave Rorem. The all-time high point yellow in retriever field trials, Marty could be the reason so many holes on the Hays’ dog truck are filled with yellow Labs.Charles loved to hunt and fish, relishing time in the duck blind and also on the ocean off the Florida Keys, and cherished lifelong friendships with his hunting and fishing buddies.Charles enjoyed friendships with many people and treasured them all. Rather than list names and risk missing anyone, his family wishes the readers to know that Charles carried with him a deep love for all his friends. His daughter Leslie is especially grateful to everyone who has reached out to her mother during this time.One final note of thanks goes to Lisa and Danny Farmer, who at the end trained the Hays’ dogs and ran them on weekends. The family is also grateful for Danny’s customers, who showed great understanding.

CLOSING NOTE:As a closing note, the loss of these two giants will be felt by all, but hopefully the memories of their wonderful stories, their smiles, their friendships, their mentoring, and their footprints will live on.Thank you, Don and Charles – Thank you for being – you …

Field Trial Etiquette

1. Please stay in the area designated by the officials.2. While dogs are being tested, either on land or at the water, please

refrain from loud talking or other noises, also from unnecessary motions; all may be distracting and may seriously interfere with the dog work.

3. Do not applaud until the dog has completed the test, and is leaving the line.

4. Non-competing dogs are not allowed on the field trial grounds.5. Please cooperate with those responsible for the proper conduct of

this championship stake, especially with respect to the handling of traffic.

6. Please show your appreciation for the hospitality extended to us. Help keep the grounds clean – Extinguish cigarettes and matches.

YOUR COOPERATION IS APPRECIATEDThis is the Seventy Eighth Annual National Retriever Championship Trial. It is conducted by the National Retriever Club, Inc., under license from the American Kennel Club, Inc.

The retrievers competing in this trial have qualified in one or more of five ways and are limited to the following:

1. The winner of the 2017 National Championship Stake;2. The winner of the 2018 National Amateur Championship Stake

(must be handled by an Amateur in this Stake);3. The winner of the 2018 Canadian National Championship Stake;4. The winner of the 2018 Canadian National Amateur Champion-

ship Stake (must be handled by an Amateur in this Stake);5. Winners of a first place, carrying five championship points,

plus two additional championship points in Open, Limited, or Special All-Age Stakes in trials held within the year preceding the National Championship Stake, which are staged by members of the National Retriever Club, Inc., which are also members of, or Licensed by, the American Kennel Club.

National Championship Stakes must include at least ten tests or “series,” equally divided between those on land and those on water.

At this trial, the judges will place only the winning dog, which is thereby entitled to the official designation, “National Retriever Champion of 2018.”

National Retriever Championship Rotation Procedure

The starting dog is drawn at the General Meeting the day previous to the beginning of the trial.

The rotation is determined by dividing the number of listed dogs in the catalog by a figure of four (4). These numbers are also announced during the General Meeting. Beginning with the starting dog, this divi-sion determines the dogs that start series one through four i.e. dog 35 starts an 80 dog trial. The division would be 35, 55, 75, 15. If any of these numbers are not listed in the callbacks the next higher number would start.

Following the fourth rotation, the rotation returns to the starting dog of the trial (35), excluding that dog and beginning with dog thirty-six (36), or the first working dog after dog thirty-six, five (5) working dogs (dogs listed on the callbacks) are counted and the sixth dog would start the fifth series.

Rotation for the remaining series of the trial would be, beginning with the dog that started the previous series and excluding that dog, counting five working dogs and the sixth dog would start.

No dog will start any series more than once. If the rotation landed on a dog that had previously started a series, that dog would be skipped unless all remaining dogs had already started a series, in which case the dog that was the first to start a series of the remaining dogs in the trial would be starting dog.

In 1991, the PRTA adopted the following set of ethical guidelines for training during the National Championship. Our members pledge to abide by them and we ask all contestants to voluntarily join us in this effort to promote good sportsmanship and fair competition.

Guidelines For Ethical Training at NationalsThe object of the National is to bring out the best performance.TO FURTHER THIS END:

1. As much training may be done each day as required BEFORE entering the trials grounds or AFTER running a test. NO TRAINING may be done after observing a test until after you have run.

2. Train with as many people as required, excluding any person who has been to the trial and observed the test in progress.

3. Train on designated areas or ask permission on private property.4. Keep corrections away from the public eye and ear.5. Dispose of birds in a manner that will not affect public perception, or disrupt another

training group.It is our belief that once a test is viewed, any training which follows will be tainted and distorted

by the viewing. Whether training alone or with a group, the viewing of the test will be reflected in what is done and how it is done. This influence is inevitable. Even if only the mannerisms of the handlers are influenced the test will be reflected. It will be reflected in the number of retrieves and whether the retrieves are short or long. It will be reflected in whether the retrieves are across the ditch, along the ditch, up the hill or down the hill, into the wind, crosswind, or downwind. Whether they be marks or blinds, whether “pattern work” sets up a mark or a blind, short or long, the test will be reflected. It may be reflected in so little as voice tone.

Any training done before actual viewing of the test is guesswork. Any training done after viewing is unfair advantage. This advantage is true even if the test is carried into the next day. When a test is carried to the next day the competitors have had the advantage of observing (or training prior to arriving at the trial) all the previous day’s work. Often there is also the advantage of partial callbacks. Any “disadvantage” of running the following day is outweighed by the advantage of knowing what the other dogs have done. Training overnight is an unfair advantage to late competitors.

Rotation is the means of neutralizing the draw. By and large it does a good job. Dogs which run early in one test will run late in the next test. Sometimes running early is best, sometimes late is best. One thing for sure, once you’ve seen the test, any training done is not fair competition.

The future of our great sport depends upon the ethical guidelines which we place upon ourselves. In the final analysis we are only competing against ourselves. We’re only winning or losing according to how we conduct ourselves.

When training at any time, caution should be taken to keep the image of field trials at a high level. Ask permission to train on private grounds. Keep corrections away from the public eye and ear and dispose of birds properly.

The object of the National is to bring out the best performance. The best performance involves every aspect of preparation and every part of ourselves. The winner is within.
