This weekend is the NLCC in Cat spring, next weekend is in Decatur but its a terrrible field. My dogs got totally shreded there on the cut cotton plants growing there so we won't be back. They usually have events in Dec at Cat springs and Waller, but were overcome by othere events this yr so the clubs all combined events at the beginning of the month instead. There will be coursing at Hutto the first and last weekend in March. McKinney has an event scheduled for Jan that we will attend with our 4 if the weather is good enought to make the 8 hour drive. We will mostly be doing events in north TX this yr vs going to the Houston area. Just too expensive to drive 12 hours each way when there are enough events closer to home. 90% of the events are AKC now, the clubs have stopped doing ASFA for the most part as entries were so low.

This weekend there was AKC lure coursing in Gilroy, CA hosted by the Bay Area Rhodesian Ridgeback Club. The basenji entry was kind of small, 2 Opens, 5 Specials, 2 Vets on Saturday and 1 Open, 4 Veterans, 2 Vets on Sunday.
On Saturday, Sophie, won the Open Stake, my mom's boy Cole took 3rd place in Specials, and Nicky won the Vet Stake. Sophie won Best of Breed for a 5 point major! On Sunday, Sophie was the only Open and got a the high score of the day, Cole won Specials, and Rally won Vets. Sophie took BOB again for her second 5 point major! This brings Sophie to 11 points and both her majors for her AKC field championship.
We also learned that Rio thinks that flat well manicured fields are boring. She had a couple of good runs but she just doesn't have the enthusiasm on the flat fields that she has on the natural fields.
