Crackshot Blackwater BMW "Beamer" placed 4th in the Derby at South Jersey this weekend. Owned by Jeff & Joyce Shaw and handled by Bill Thompson.

Jeff,

Congratulation!!!! I own Beamer's sister Crackshots Rivers Risen Hope. She is currently, with a pro here in Wisconsin getting ready for summer derbies. Hopefully, she can live up to the example set by her brother.

Bob,

Which pro is she with? I'll be training with a pro's assistant this week. He's got a bunch of dogs with him to enter in the FT down here Fri. and Sat. Maybe I'll get to see her run. ('course she'll be running in the same derby as my dog)

Todd

Todd,

She's with Sue Kiefer of Choctaw Retrievers. She won't be ready for her debut until late may, possibly early june.

In response to an offer you threw out, not to long ago. If you ever decide to run an HT or FT at the Manitowoc Kennel Club, let me know. You can crash at our place. That's my home club. I live about 45 minutes west of there.

Bob, thanks for the offer. If I can get Oz steady on the line, I may be entering FT's where ever I can find them. As far as HT's go, I'll finish the JH, and maybe skip up to MH in a year or two.

Where is Manitowoc? How many hours from Chicago?
