12/23 Gap Analysis - transition (blinds), OB & "whoa", upland (steady to flush & shot), HRC
1/6 Gap Analysis - HRC "stuff", upland - considering the snow & cold "It's going well."
1/11 Gap Analysis - need to use "real" ducks regularly

The Random Thoughts Bin
Dec. 21 marking phases - influenced by Hillman's philosophy and personal experience
#1 work on pure marking skills first - straight to the AOF (refer to early Hilllmann Land
Fundamentals) many singles, orange bumpers, pin-point expectations with "reps"
note: Pounce is well into this phase with confidence & good distance
# 2 introduce how multiple marks influence each other - basic concept singles first
note: Pounce has (from day one) demonstrated having an excellent memory
# 3 introduce factors - wind & terrain (it is winter = no water = built in simplification)
note: repeat above in spring and remember land skills do not always
simply carryover to water = KISS time
# 4 introduce the influence of combining marks with blinds (transition phase)
note: this is a work in progress (begun December 21, 2015)
